Silicon Labs has shipped four million FG23 System-on-Chips (SoCs) for India’s Advanced Metering Initiative (AMI). Using Wirepas RF mesh technology, these chips offer reliable and efficient smart electricity metering tailored to India’s energy needs.
The FG23 SoC with Wirepas Mesh Sub-GHz connectivity delivers high scalability, low power consumption, and outstanding reliability, making it ideal for AMI deployments. Its network adjusts to environmental changes, optimises data paths, and quickly restructures after power outages, ensuring 99.9 per cent proven reliability for utilities.
Key benefits of the FG23 SoC include:
- Cost Efficiency: Reduces deployment costs with streamlined operations.
- Exceptional Reliability: Guarantees accurate data delivery every 15 minutes.
- Urban Resilience: Handles heavy radio traffic in dense urban areas.
- Rural Reach: Maintains robust performance across long distances.
Ross Sabolcik, SVP at Silicon Labs, has mentioned the FG23 SoC’s capability to address India’s unique energy demands, noting its role in supporting the Advanced Metering Initiative with exceptional performance.
Aligned with India’s Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS), the FG23 SoC meets rigorous regulatory standards, enabling solution providers to integrate seamlessly while advancing India’s energy infrastructure.
