electronic synchronous / asynchronous transmitter / empfu00e4ngereinrichtung for network communications

摘要

The invention relates to an electronic synchronous/ asynchronous transceiver device (100) for power line communication networks of the type integrated into a single chip and operating from a single supply voltage. The transceiver device includes: at least an internal register (40) that is programmable through a synchronous serial interface (41); at least a line driver for a two-way network communication over power lines implemented by a single ended power amplifier (45) with direct accessible input and output lines that is part of a tunable active filter for the transmission path; and at least a couple of linear regulators (30, 35) for powering with different voltage levels different kind of external controllers linked to the transceiver device (100).
