GENERAL DESCRIPTION
modem dedicated to power line carrier (PLC) data
transmission on low− or medium−voltage power lines. The
device offers complete handling of the protocol layers from
the physical up to the MAC. AMIS−49587 complies with the
EN 50065 CENELEC and the IEC 1334−5−1 standards. It
operates from a single 3.3 V power supply and is interfaced
to the power line by an external power driver and
transformer. An internal PLL is locked to the mains
frequency (50 Hz or 60 Hz) and is used to synchronize the
data transmission at data rates of 300, 600, 1200 and
2400 baud for a 50 Hz mains frequency, corresponding to 3,
6, 12 or 24 data bits per half cycle of the mains frequency
(50 Hz or 60 Hz).
combines some of the advantages of a classical spread
spectrum system (e.g. immunity against narrow band
interferers) with the advantages of the classical FSK system
(low complexity). The transmitter assigns the space

lies in the fact that f
other, making their transmission quality independent from
each other (the strengths of the small interferences and the
signal attenuation are both independent at the two
frequencies). The frequency pairs supported by the
AMIS−49587 are in the range of 9−95 kHz with a typical
separation of 10 kHz.

digital. At the back−end side, the interface to the application
is done through a serial interface. The digital processing of
the signal is partitioned between hardwired blocks and a
microprocessor block. The microprocessor is controlled by
firmware. Where timing is most critical, the functions are
implemented with dedicated hardware. For the functions
where the timing is less critical, typically the higher level
functions, the circuit makes use of the ARM 7TDMI
microprocessor core.
handles the communication protocol. The communication
protocol, in this application, contains the MAC = Medium
Access Control Layer. The program running on the
microprocessor is stored into an on−board ROM. The
working data necessary for the processing is stored in an
internal RAM. At the back−end side the link to the
application hardware is provided by a SCI. The SCI is an
easy to use serial interface, which allows communication
between an external processor used for the application
software and the AMIS−49587 modem. The SCI works on
two wires: TXD and RXD. Baud rate is programmed by
setting 2 bits (BR0, BR1).
the AMIS−49587 provides an innovative architectural split.
Thanks to this, the user has the benefit of a higher level
interface of the link to the PLC medium. Compared to an
interface at the physical level, the AMIS−49587 allows
faster development of applications. The user just needs to
send the raw data to the AMIS−49587 and no longer has to
take care of the protocol detail of the transmission over the
specific medium. This last part represents usually 50% of the
software development costs.
