MAX2992 Overview
The MAX2992 powerline munication (PLC) baseband modem delivers half-duplex, asynchronous data munication over AC power lines at speeds up to 300kbps (full FCC band data rate). The MAX2992 is a system-on-chip (SoC) that bines the physical (PHY) and media access control (MAC) layers using Maxim’s 32-bit MAXQ30 microcontroller core. The MAX2991 integrated analog front-end transceiver interfaces seamlessly with the...
