TMS320F28069: Is the TIDU237 dev kit still in production?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AFE031, C2000WARE

I have been looking for info on the TIDU237 G3-PLC power line communications developer's kit and I can't find much. Is this kit still active? Is there support for it? What are the software tools? Where can I find the design files/reference designs? . . .? We want to develop a PLC system that supports both G3 and a legacy protocol (EIA-709.1/EIA-709.2).

Johann,

This kit and these protocol libraries are no longer available on TI.com or supported from TI. We do have an application note and HW/SW to implement a simple FSK based PLC with C2000 and AFE031 device to meet the SunSpec protocol(for Solar Panel Shutdown) available with the links below.

Application Note: https://www.ti.com/lit/sprac94

https://www.ti.com/tool/BOOSTXL-AFE031-DF1 using https://www.ti.com/tool/LAUNCHXL-F280049C

SW examples are part of C2000Ware download/device support files.

As for the G3 kits/protocols we have given a TI 3P Vanteon: https://vanteon.com/ has access to these SW and HW design files for G3 and PRIME protocols; both CENELAC and FCC(G3 only) bands. You can reach out to them to understand if their services would be of interest.

Best,

Matthew
