Powerline tool boosts access to the smart grid
STMicroelectronics has developed a plug-and-play powerline communication (PLC) development toolset to speed the development of turn-key powerline networks.
The powerline development toolset lets developers connect smart devices using the ST8500/STLD1 chipset that has been proven in utility-class smart meters, with ST’s EVALKITST8500-1 evaluation kit for the ST8500 PLC modem system-on-chip and STLD1 dual line driver.
