AFE031: Power Line Communication and SunSpec

Part Number: AFE031
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AFE030, , C2000WARE

Hi,

Application Report SPRAC94–June 2017, Interfacing the C2000™ With an AFE030/1: FSK Example provides details of a SFSK transmitter for SunSpec Rapid Shutdown application. I found it very timely and useful. In addition I can understand from this document and other C2000 / AFE031 data and reference designs how I might build a Sunspec compliant receiver.

I notice that TI has strong representation on the SunSpec working group. Does this mean TI could have plans to develop a SunSpec compliant receiver design, or dedicated IC? Any information on such plans, timeframes etc would be very much appreciated. 

Best Regards,

Alan

    Hello Alan,

    I am glad the document was informative. That is correct, TI has been heavily involved in the Sunspec working group for defining the standard. We are finishing up the development of a Sunspec compliant receiver and will add documentation to the existing Application Report SPRAC94 which will within mid January 2018 as well as open source code in C2000ware.

    Hi Errol,

    Thank you for responding, and I will be looking forward to seeing your updated Application Report and code. If I understand correctly the receiver will also be based around the combination of C2000 & AFE031, is that correct?

    Best Regards,

    Alan
