HCPL - 800J
PLC Powerline DAA IC
Data Sheet
Description
The HCPL-800J is a galvanically isolated Powerline Data
Access Arrangement IC. It provides the key features of
isolation, Tx line driver and Rx amplifier as required in a
powerline modem application.
Used together with a simple LC coupling circuit, the
HCPL-800J offers a highly integrated, cost effective
Analogue Front End (AFE) solution. Optical coupling
technology provides very high isolation mode rejection,
facilitating excellent EMI and EMC performance. Applica-
tion robustness is enhanced by the inherent properties
of opto-isolation devices, to effectively block the transfer
of damaging surge transients.
Excellent transmitter performance is achieved with the
use of a high efficiency, low distortion line driver stage.
Transmitter robustness is further enhanced with inte-
grated load detection and over-temperature protection
functions.
The HCPL-800J is designed to work with various trans-
ceiver ICs and significantly simplify the implementation
of a powerline modem.
