Yocto-Amp
This tiny device is an isolated current sensor, for both AC and DC. It is electrically isolated, and includes a built-in data logger. You can add Ethernet, Wireless or GSM connectivity to this device.
This device is a digital USB ammeter that allows you to measure current automatically. It can provide quite precises digital measures (2 mA, 1%). It works with direct current (DC) as well as alternating current (AC) for which it provides the RMS value (5 mA or 3%).
This device is isolated, which means that the sensing part is electrically disconnected from the USB part: you can measure any current including from the mains, without risk of frying your computer.
The modules 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-g, it can even be connected to a GSM network thanks to the YoctoHub-GSM.
USB cables and enclosure to be ordered separately.
