MPL485A-I/AJA

PL485 Datasheet Scope This document is an overview of the main features of the PL485 microprocessor. The sole reference documents for product information on the PL485 are listed in Reference Documents. Introduction The PL485 is a fully programmable Power Line Communication (PLC) System On Chip (SOC). It is able to run any narrowband-PLC (NB-PLC) protocol in the frequency band up to 500 kHz. By means of selecting the proper firmware, the PL485 is able to support applications requiring basic connectivity (point to point, star) or complex PLC networks (mesh topologies with routing). Microchip provides firmware examples for basic PLC connectivity, as well as implementations of state-of-the-art PLC protocols such as ITU-T G.9903 (G3-PLC ) and ITU-T G.9904 (PRIME ). The PL485 is a future-proof modem able to support the evolution of the implemented NB-PLC standards. Reference Documents Type Document Title Available Ref.
