Power line carrier communication modem is an OEM module which carries data on a conductor used for electric power transmission – i.e the AC lines.
PLCC offers a “no new wires” solution because the infrastructure is already established. This module can be integrated into and become part of the user's system.
A pair of these Modems connected on the same phase and neutral line of the power network can provide bidirectional data communication at a baud rate up to 2400 bps.
The PLCC modem is built around the M16C/6S MCU from Renesas Technology. It is a simple modem around which a host of applications can be built. The unit can be easily integrated into other systems to successfully transmit data over the power lines.
