This device is a digital watt-meter allowing you to monitor the power consumption of electrical devices. Its works with both AC and DC current. Regarding AC current, the device computes the real power consumption (not just the product of RMS voltage and current), so it can be used to monitor inductive loads. The Yocto-Watt can compute the power consumption during a given lapse of time. Accuracy is 1mWh, 1%.
This device is isolated, which means that the sensor part is electrically disconnected from the USB part: you can measure any voltage difference between -250V and 250V, without risk of frying your computer. The module provides immediate reading on USB and can also store measures on the device internal flash for later retrieval when connected again by USB.
This device can be connected directly to an Ethernet network using a YoctoHub-Ethernet, to a WiFi network using a YoctoHub-Wireless-n and to a GSM network using a YoctoHub-GSM.
