PL360G55CB-EK User Guide

2021-11-16
●PL360G55CB-EK is an evaluation kit for the PL360 modem. PL360 is a programmable modem for narrow-band Power Line Communication (PLC) from Microchip Technology Inc, able to run any PLC protocol in the frequency band below 500 kHz. The PL360 has been conceived to be driven by external Microchip host controller devices; in this case a SAMG55 ARM® Cortex®-M4 RISC processor is used. The Microchip host device loads the corresponding PLC-protocol firmware and then controls the PL360 modem operation.
The PL360G55CB-EK board has been conceived to communicate in CENELEC B-Band (95 kHz to 125 kHz) and it complies with CENELEC standard EN 50065 regulations and Smart Energy applications. It can be connected directly to AC mains or DC power rails.
●Features
■PL360G55CB-EK board mounts a PL360 PLC transceiver and a SAMG55J19 ARM Cortex M4 microcontroller.
■PL360G55CB-EK board provides a full featured platform to develop a complete communications system based on PLC technology working in CENELEC B-Band.
■PL360 is a compact and highly efficient device for a wide range of Smart Grid applications such as lighting control, industrial/home automation and renewable-energy management, among others.
■PL360G55CB-EK board provides support for:
▲PLC band characterization and noise level measurement
