WIRELESS MICROCONTROLLERS MAKE SINDCON SMART METERS MORE EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE
STMicroelectronics announced its collaboration with Sindcon (Singapore) IoT Technology Pte Ltd, a smart meter provider based in Singapore.
The project is adding STM32WLE5 LoRaWAN® wireless microcontrollers from ST into Sindcon’s network of more than 50,000 water, gas and energy meters in Jakarta, Indonesia.
The project will be Sindcon’s first deployment in Indonesia using the highly integrated STM32WLE5CC wireless MCU from ST, a Sub-GHz wireless microcontroller featuring an Arm® Cortex®-M4 core operating at 48 MHz. The MCU contains 256 Kbytes of Flash memory, 64 Kbytes of SRAM, LoRa® modulation, and AES 256-bit encryption.
With the STM32WLE5, Sindcon’s retrofitted meters contain an advanced battery management system that can support accurate remote readings for up to 10 years.
The meters are currently being retrofitted and will be fully installed by the end of 2023.
Save the date and experience the demo at Industrial Transformation Asia-Pacific (ITAP), a Hannover MESSE event from 18 – 20 October 2023 at the Singapore Expo.
