Hi All ,
A customer evaluating now the AC-PLC EVM including an AFE031 askes the following question :
"When loading the AFE031 transmitter with 3 meter cable(~3uh) it should be much lighter load than 2ohm (if it not, pls explain why)
we expect to get a signal which is at least 114dbuv, but in our test we measure only 101dbuv .
Pls comment because with such a significant signal drop for that loading, we cannot move for further testing steps "
The setup is :.
G3-PLC
Mode: 8-PSK
Mask: FCC Full-Band
Packet size: 478 bytes
Gap Between Packets: 1ms
Distance between Tx & Rx = 0m
Connected to AC grid. Distance to AC grid is 3m
RSSI = 101dBuV
SNR = 16dB
Bitrate = 245kbps
Best regards ,
