ABSTRACT:The paucity of water resources is one of our country’s realities. The traditional water meter checking brings a great amount of work to running-water companies and has many disadvantages. The reform of water utilization system necessarily requires the reform of running-water management. The application and popularization of intelligent water meter with Integrated Circuit Card has not only resolved the checking and charging troubles for running-water companies which have been harassed for a long time, but also brought convenience to actualizing the ladder Integrated Circuit Card has a wide progress space including relevant knowledge about Integrated Circuit Card. To decrease the power loss of the water meter, PIC16F84Single-chip Microcomputer with low power loss made by Microchip can be chosen as a microprocessor. The hardware and software design of intelligent water meter with Integrated Circuit Card is introduced detailedly in the Single-chip Microcomputer.
