Need a help to integrate
Posted: Wed Apr 02, 2025 11:23 am
Hello there,
I have a 0.28-inch DC 100V 100A LED digital ammeter-voltmeter. I've been using it for quite some time. Now, I wanted to integrate it with a microcontroller.
I have a basic idea of how I can execute it but need some more suggestions from you guys.
The device has two wiring harnesses. One is for powering the meter, and the other is for measuring voltage and current. I need to connect the power harness to a 5V source and the measurement harness to the circuit I want to monitor. The voltage and current readings can be fed into the analog input pins of your microcontroller. So I think I need to use voltage dividers or current sensors to ensure the signals are within the microcontroller's input range. I'm going to write a program to read the analog signals from the meter and convert them into readable voltage and current values.
What else can I do to ensure the proper working of this integration?
