AFE031 Datasheet Powerline Communications Analog Front-End

Manufacturer: Texas Instruments

General Description

The AFE031 is a low-cost, integrated, powerline communications (PLC) analog front-end (AFE) device that is capable of capacitive- or transformer-coupled connections to the powerline while under the control of a DSP or microcontroller.

It is ideal for driving lowimpedance lines that require up to 1.5 A into reactive loads.

The integrated receiver is able to detect signals down to 20 μVRMS and is capable of a wide range of gain options to adapt to varying input signal conditions.
