STEVAL-XPLM01CPL

STEVAL-XPLM01CPL is a simple tool for power line communication testing on AC power networks. It includes two-wire connectivity to any PLC transmitter/receiver and a standard connector for an AC power cord (2-pin AC plug, 8-shape female end). The main components provide suitable signal coupling, SM6T15CA 600W Transil +320V ac varistor for effective protection against ESD, EFT and surge disturbances from the power line, high voltage AC blocking capacitor with X2 safety class and tuning series inductor to adjust the frequency response. The STEVAL-XPLM01CPL is suitable for lab measurements using equipment like an isolated probe for an oscilloscope or a spectrum analyser or to inject a signal from an arbitrary function generator.

• Complete AC coupling circuit for suitable for use with any power line communication (PLC) solution
• Can be paired with X-NUCLEO-PLM01A1 to add full AC coupling capability
• Tuned for transmission inside CENELEC B to D bands
• Implements isolation and protections
• Suitable for PLC measurement and testing

Warnings

STEVAL-XPLM01CPL must be used by expert technicians only. Due to high voltage (85VAC to 265VAC)present on non-isolated parts, special care must be taken in order to avoid electric risks for safety.
