The SIG60 Evaluation Board modem (EVB) emulates the operation of the SIG60 device in a system. Multiple SIG60 modems can communicate over noisy DC power-line, using the LIN-bus protocol or directly from UART.
The EVB contains all the required hardware for multiplex operation such as a line protection network, ceramic filters and a 10V to 36V switching power supply. The modem performs an asynchronous UART protocol over DC power-line at data rates of up to 115.2kbps. It provides a new physical layer transceiver modem for DC power line asynchronous communication. The DC Power-line carrier modem may be connected directly to a host ECU (LIN / UART controller or a PC). Optionally, the EVB may be connected to any UART via a RS232 interface available from Yamar.
