AFE3010: Powerline communications processor

Part Number: AFE3010
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AFE031, AFE032

Hi Team,

Does TI offer a processor that pairs with the AFE301? Something that would compete with the Qualcomm QCA6410 or Renesas CPX4 (R9A06G061)?

    Hey Jared,

    Are you referring to the AFE301 or AFE3010?

    I am notifying our processor teams to see if they can help provide alternative devices. 

    Sincerely,

    Peter

    Hi Peter,

    Was referring to the AFE031, sorry for the typo.

    Any word from the processor team?

    Hi Jared,

    AFE031 is Narrow-Band PLC (NB-PLC) Controller, full power BW is up to 300kHz. AFE032 is also NB-PLC controller with the full power BW up to 500kHz (usable up to 670kHz). We do not offer SoC PLC integrated IC, and we use C2000 DSP processors that pair with the controller. Here are three low cost DSP processors that will work with the controllers - TMS320F280013x, TMS320F28002x, TMS320F28004x and others. You may want to contact C2000 team about the application of our DSP processors. 

    The above PLC controllers do not directly compete with Qualcomm QCA6410-AL3C or Renesas CPX4 (R9A06G061), which are SoC based integrated PLC network products, though the analog front end of the products are very similar.  If you have additional questions, please let me know. 

    Best,

    Raymond
