ST-PLC-AFE

Overview

The ST-PLC-AFE is a power-line communication, analog front-end device capable of capacitive or transformer-coupled connections to the power line while under the control of a microcontroller or a DSP. The line driver is able to drive low-impedance lines, requiring up to 1.65 A, into reactive loads.

  • Integrated, analog power-line driver and receiver
  • EN 50065-1 - CENELEC, European bands A, B, C, and D
  • Supports FSK, S-FSK, and OFDM
  • Supports PRIME, G3, and IEC 61334
  • Half-duplex mode
  • Thermal protection
  • Programmable overcurrent protection
  • 10 V p-p single-ended output range
  • 20 V p-p differential-ended output range
  • Programmable transmitter chain (Tx) and receiver chain (Rx) filters
