A Breakout board for the ATMEL E9026 Energy monitor from Whatnicklife:
What is it?
ATM90E26 breakout for AC energy monitoring. It allows development of code and applications conveniently.
Why did you make it?
I wanted to test various energy monitor ASIC’s. I have already made an ADE7763 Breakout, I wanted to try the ATM90E26 for comparison and ease of use (SPI/UART alternatives). However it is not cheap since ATMEL’s version of the EVM is too expensive, aimed at the enterprise rather than electronics hobbyists.

So I took the low voltage parts of the reference design and made a breadboard friendly breakout.
