NCN49597 D

NCN49597
Power Line Communication
Modem
The NCN49597 is a powerful spread frequency shift keying
(S−FSK) communication system−on−chip (SoC) designed for
communication in hostile environments.
It combines a low power ARM Cortex M0 processor with a high
precision analogue front end. Based on 4800 baud S−FSK
dual−channel technology, it offers an ideal compromise between speed
and robustness.
Pin−compatible with its predecessor, the AMIS−49587, this new
generation chip extends the communication frequency range to cover
all CENELEC bands for use in applications such as e−metering, home
automation and street lighting. The NCN49597 benefits for more than
10 years of field experience in e−metering and delivers innovative
features such as a smart synchronization and in−band statistics.
Fully reprogrammable, the modem firmware can be updated in the
field. Multiple royalty−free firmware options are available from
ON Semiconductor; refer to the separate datasheets for details. The
configurable GPIOs allow connecting peripherals such as LCDs or
metering ICs.

Figure 1. Typical Application for the NCN49597 S−FSK Modem
Figure 1 shows an S−FSK PLC modem built around the
NCN49597. The design is a good starting point for a
CENELEC. EN 50065−1−compliant system; for further
information refer to the referenced design manual.
This design is not galvanically isolated; safety must be
considered when interfacing to a microcontroller or a PC.
For synchronization the mains is coupled in via a 1 MW
resistor; the Schottky diode pair D5 clamps the voltage
within the input range of the zero crossing detector.
In the receive path a 2nd order high pass filter blocks the
mains frequency. The corner point − defined by C1, C2, R1
and R2 − is designed at 10 kHz. In the transmit path a 3th
order low pass filter built around the NCS5651 power
operational amplifier suppresses the 2nd and 3rd harmonics
to be in line with the CENELEC EN50065−1 specification.
The filter components are tuned for a space and mark
frequency of 63.3 and 74 kHz respectively. The output of the
amplifier is coupled through DC blocking capacitor C10 to
a 2:1 transformer Tr. The high voltage capacitor C11 couples
the secondary of this transformer to the mains.
High−energetic transients from the mains are clamped by
the protection diode combination D3, D4, together with D1,
D2.

Stresses exceeding those listed in the Maximum Ratings table may damage the device. If any of these limits are exceeded, device functionality
should not be assumed, damage may occur and reliability may be affected.
1. The upper maximum voltage rating on the clock pins XIN and XOUT is specified with respect to the output voltage of the internal core voltage
regulator. The tolerance of this voltage regulator must be taken into account. In case an external clock is used, care must be taken not to
damage the XIN pin.
2. The direction (input or output) of configurable pins (IO0…IO9) depends on the firmware.
Normal Operating Conditions
Operating ranges define the limits for functional
operation and parametric characteristics of the device as
described in the Electrical Characteristics section and for the
reliability specifications.
Total cumulative dwell time outside the normal power
supply voltage range or the ambient temperature under bias,
must be less than 0.1 percent of the useful life.

14. With the level control register set for maximal output amplitude. Tested with low pass filter tuned for CENELEC D−band.
15. This parameter will not be tested in production.
16. A sinusoidal signal of 100 mVpp is injected between VDDA and VSSA while the digital AD converter generates an idle pattern. The signal
level at TX_OUT is measured to determine the parameter.
17. The cascade of the digital−to−analog converter (DAC), low−pass filter (LPF), and transmission amplifier is production tested and must
have a frequency characteristic between the limits listed. The level is specified relative to the level at DC; the absolute output level will
depend on the operating condition.

NCN49597
General Description
Media Access Control (MAC) and Logical Link Control
(LLC) layers on−chip. For more information, refer to the
dedicated software datasheets.
Because the lower layers are handled on−chip, the
NCN49597 provides an innovative architectural split. The
user benefits from a higher level abstraction. Compared to
a low−level interface, the NCN49597 allows faster
development of applications: the user just needs to send the
raw data to the NCN49597 and no longer has to take care of
the details of the transmission over the specific medium. The
latter part easily represents half of the software development
cost.
The NCN49597 is a single chip half duplex S−FSK
modem designed for hostile communication environments
with very low signal−to−noise ratio (SNR) and high
interference. It is particularly suited for power line carrier
(PLC) data transmission on low−or medium−voltage power
lines.
Together with firmware, the device handles of the lower
layers of communication protocols. Firmware solutions are
provided by ON Semiconductor royalty−free for the two
most popular standards: the IEC 61334−5−1 standard
primarily intended for automatic meter reading (AMR) and
the ON−PL110 protocol primarily intended for building and
process automation. Both variants handle the physical,

NCN49597
The modem communicates to the application
microcontroller over a Serial Communication Interface
(SCI), a standard asynchronous serial link, which allows
interfacing with any microcontroller with a free UART. The
SCI works on two wires: TXD and RXD. The baud rate is
programmed by setting two pins (BR0, BR1).
The NCN49597, together with an NCS5651 line driver, is
functionally equivalent to the NCN49599 modem. Thus, the
same user software works equally well with the NCN49597
as with the NCN49599.
NCN49597 complies with the CENELEC EN 50065−1,
EN 50065−7 and the IEC 61334−5−1 standards. It operates
from a single 3.3 V power supply and is interfaced to the
power line by an external line driver and transformer. An
internal PLL is locked to the mains frequency and is used to
synchronize the data transmission at data rates of 300, 600,
1200, 2400 and 4800 baud for a 50 Hz mains frequency, or
360, 720, 1440, 2880 and 5760 baud for a 60 Hz mains
frequency. In both cases this corresponds to 3, 6, 12 or 24
data bits per half cycle of the mains period.
S−FSK is a modulation and demodulation technique that
combines some of the advantages of a classical spread
spectrum system (e.g. immunity against narrow band
interferers) with the advantages of the classical FSK system
(low complexity). The transmitter assigns the space
frequency fS to “data 0” and the mark frequency fM to
“data 1”. In contrast to classical FSK, the modulation
carriers fS and fM used in S−FSK are placed well apart. As
interference and signal attenuation seen at the carrier
frequencies are now less correlated, this results in making
their transmission quality independent from each other.
Thus, more robust communication is possible in
interference−prone environments. The frequency pairs
supported by the NCN49597 are in the range of 9–150 kHz
with a typical separation of 10 kHz.
The conditioning and conversion of the signal is
performed at the analog front−end of the circuit. All further
processing of the signal and the handling of the protocol is
fully digital. The digital processing of the signal is
partitioned between hardwired blocks and a microprocessor
block. Where timing is most critical, the functions are
implemented with dedicated hardware. For the functions
where the timing is less critical − typically the higher level
functions − the circuit makes use of an integrated ARM
microprocessor core. An internal random−access memory
(RAM) stored the firmware and the working data.
After the modem has been reset, the user must upload the
firmware into the modem memory. This may be done over
the asynchronous serial interface (discussed below);
alternatively, the modem can autonomously retrieve the
firmware from an attached SPI memory. For details, refer to
the Boot Loader section.
Converting AMIS−49587−based Designs to NCN49597
The NCN49597 is designed to allow easy adaptation of
printed circuit board designs using the AMIS−49587. All
connected pins of the latter (QFN package) are present in the
same location in the NCN49597.
Four important hardware changes must be noted.
Most of the not−connected (NC) pins of the AMIS−49587
are functional in the NCN49597. If these pins were
previously connected to ground (a commendable practice)
this must be taken into account. IO4–IO10 are usually
configured as inputs and can therefore be grounded safely.
However, it must be considered that some NC pins of
AMIS−49587 are outputs in the NCN49597. These include
pins SDO, SCK and, CSB. IO0 and IO1 are used typically
used by the firmware as status indicators. IO3 is used by the
ON PL110 firmware for controlling the amplifier enable
signal.
Secondly, the NCN49597 incorporates an internal 1.8 V
regulator to power the digital core. For stability, a 1 mF
capacitor to ground must be connected on pin 19
(VDD1V8).
In addition, the lowest baud rate setting of the
AMIS−49587 serial interface (BR0 & BR1 pulled low; 4800
baud) has been replaced by 115200 baud. All other BR0 and
BR1 settings will result in the same baud rate.
Finally, a 48 MHz crystal is required for the NCN49597;
the AMIS−49587 used a 24 MHz crystal.
The firmware running on the modem has been updated
substantially compared to the AMIS−49587. As a result, the
interface protocol between the user microcontroller and the
modem is completely different. Refer to the firmware
datasheet for details.

specified by the crystal manufacturer for correct operation
at the desired frequency. CL is determined by the external
capacitors CX and stray capacitance (CSTRAY):
CL = CX / 2 + CSTRAY
Stray capacitance typically ranges from 2 to 5 pF. This
results in a typical CX value of 33 pF.
The printed circuit board should be designed to minimize
stray capacitance and capacitive coupling to other parts by
keeping traces as short as possible. The quality of the ground
plane below the oscillator components is critical.
To guarantee startup, the series loss resistance of the
crystal must be smaller than 60 W.
The oscillator output fCLK (48 MHz) is the base clock for
the entire modem. The microcontroller clock, fARM, is taken
directly from fCLK. The clock for the transmitter, fTX_CLK,
is equal to fCLK / 4 or 12 MHz; the master receiver clock,
fRX_CLK, equals fCLK / 8 or 6 MHz. All the internal clock
signals of the transmitter and the receiver will be derived
from fTX_CLK resp. fRX_CLK..
The NCN49597 may be clocked from a crystal with the
built−in oscillator or from an external clock. XIN is the input
to the oscillator inverter gain stage; XOUT the output.
XOUT cannot be used directly as a clock output as no
additional loading is allowed on the pin due to the limited
voltage swing. This applies both to operation with a crystal
and an external oscillator.
If an external clock of 48 MHz is to be used, the pin
EXT_CLK_E must be pulled to VDD and the clock signal
connected to XIN. Note that the high level on XIN must not
exceed the voltage of the internal voltage regulator (VDD18,
or about 1.8 V). The output must be floating.
If a crystal is to be used, the pin EXT_CLK_E should be
strapped to VSSA and the circuit illustrated in Figure 12
should be employed.

Zero Crossing Detector
Depending on the standard and the application,
synchronization with the mains zero crossing may be
required. Of particular note is IEC 61334−5−1 where data
frames start at a zero crossing of the mains voltage.
In order to recover this timing information, a zero cross
detection of the mains is performed.
Recommended circuits for the detection of the mains zero
crossing appear in the Application Note “Mains
synchronization for PLC modems”. In case of the modem is
not isolated from the mains a series resistor of 1 MW in
combination with two external Schottky clamp diodes is
recommended (Figure 13). This will limit the current
flowing through the internal protection diodes.

Figure 13. Zero Crossing Detector with Falling−edge De−bounce Filter
ZC_IN is the mains frequency sense pin. A comparator
with Schmitt trigger ensures a signal with edges, even in the
presence of noise. In addition, the falling edges of the
detector output are de−bounced with a delay of 0.5–1 ms.
Rising edges are not de−bounced.
Because the detector threshold is not 0 V but slightly
positive, the rising edge of the output is delayed compared
to the actual rising mains zero crossing (Figure 14).
Figure 14. Zero Crossing Detector Signals and Timing (example for 50 Hz)
Phase Locked Loop (PLL)
using the register R_CONF. The bit R_CONF[0] specifies
the mains frequency, with a cleared bit (0) corresponding to
50 Hz; a set bit (1) to 60 Hz. The bits R_CONF[2:1] control
the number of data bits per mains period. The values 00b,
01b, 10b and 11b correspond to 6, 12, 24 and 48 bits per
mains period of 20 ms (50 Hz) or 16.7 ms (60 Hz).
Together this results in the baud rates and chip clock
frequencies shown in Table 6.
A phase−locked loop (PLL) structure converts the signal
at the ZC_IN comparator output to the chip clock
(CHIP_CLK). This clock is used for modulation and
demodulation and runs 8 times faster than the bit rate; as a
result, the chip clock frequency depends on the mains
frequency and the baud rate.
The filters of the PLL are dependent on the baud rate and
the mains frequency. They must be correctly configured

The PLL significantly reduces the clock jitter. This makes
the modem less sensitive to timing variations; as a result, a
cheaper zero crossing detector circuit may be used.
The PLL input is only sensitive to rising edges.
If no zero crossings are detected, the PLL freezes its
internal timers in order to maintain the CHIP_CLK timing.

NCN49597
Clock Generator and Timer
The PLL ensures the generated chip clock is in phase with
the rising edge of comparator output. However, these edges
are not precisely in phase with the mains.
Inevitably, the external zero crossing detector circuit
suffers from a delay tDETD (e.g. caused by an optocoupler).
In addition, the comparator threshold is not zero (VIRZC_IN
= 1.9 V); this results in a further delay, tCOMP0 between the
rising edge of the signal on pin ZC_IN and the rising edge
on the comparator output (as noted before, the PLL takes
only the rising edge into account).
The combination of these delays would cause the modem
to emit and receive data frames too late.
Therefore, the PLL allows tuning the phase difference
between its input and the chip clock. The CHIP_CLK may
be brought forward by setting the register R_ZC_ADJUST.
The adjustment period or granularity is 13 ms, with a
maximum adjustment of 255 x 13 ms = 3.3 ms,
corresponding with a sixth of the 50 Hz mains sine period.
This is illustrated in Figure 10. The “physical frame” (i.e.,
the modulated signal appearing on the mains) starts earlier
with R_ZC_ADJUST[7:0] x 13 ms to compensate for the
zero cross delay.
The delay corresponding with the value of
R_ZC_ADJUST is also listed in Table 7.
The timing generator (Figure 11, center) is responsible for
all synchronization signals and interrupts related to S−FSK
communication.
The timing is derived from the chip clock (CHIP_CLK,
generated by the PLL) and the main oscillator clock fCLK.
The timing has a fixed repetition rate, corresponding to the
length of a physical subframe (see reference [1]).
When the NCN49597 switches between receive and
transmit mode, the chip clock counter value is maintained.
As a result, the same timing is maintained for reception and
transmission. Seven timing signals are defined:
• CHIP_CLK is the output of the PLL and the input of
the timing generator. It runs 8 times faster than the bit
rate on the physical interface.
• BIT_CLK is only active at chip clock counter values
that are multiples of 8 (0, 8, .., 2872). It indicates the
start of the transmission of a new bit.
• BYTE_CLK is only active at chip clock counter values
that are multiples of 64 (0, 64, .., 2816). It indicates the
start of the transmission of a new byte.
• FRAME_CLK is only active at counter value 0; it
indicates the transmission or reception of a new frame.
• PRE_BYTE_CLK follows the same pattern as
BYTE_CLK, but precedes it by 8 chip clocks. It can be
used as an interrupt for the internal microcontroller and
indicates that a new byte for transmission must be
generated.
• PRE_FRAME_CLK follows the same pattern at
FRAME_CLK, but precedes it by 8 chip clocks. It can
be used as an interrupt for the internal microcontroller
and indicates that a new frame will start at the next
FRAME_CLK.
• PRE_SLOT is active between the rising edge of
PRE_FRAME_CLK and the rising edge of
FRAME_CLK. This signal can be provided at the
digital output pin DATA/PRES when R_CONF[7] = 0.
Thus, the external host controller may synchronize its
software with the internal FRAME_CLK of the
NCN49597. Refer to the SCI section and Table 11 for
details.

Transmitter Path Description (S−FSK Modulator)
The transmitter block is controlled by the microcontroller
core, which provided the bit sequence to be transmitted.
Direct digital synthesis (DDS) is employed to synthesize the
modulated signal; after a conditioning step, this signal is
converted to an analogue voltage. Finally, an amplifier with
variable gain buffers the signal and outputs it on pin
TX_OUT.
The NCN49597 transmitter block (Figure 17) generates
the signal to be sent on the transmission channel. Most
commonly, the output is connected to a power amplifier
which injects the output signal on the mains through a
line−coupler.
As the NCN49597 is a half−duplex modem, this block is
not active when the modem is receiving.

Microcontroller Interface & Control
register is usually made available by the firmware to the
application microcontroller. The attenuations corresponding
to R_ALC_CTRL[2:0] values are given in Table 8.
The interface with the internal ARM microcontroller
consists of an 8−bit data register R_TX_DATA, 2 control
registers R_TX_CTRL and R_ALC_CTRL, a flag
TX_RXB defining the operating mode (a high level
corresponding to transmit mode; low to receive) and the
frequency control registers. All these registers are memory
mapped; most can be accessed through the firmware: refer
to the specific firmware documentation for details.
Table 8. FIXED TRANSMITTER OUTPUT ATTENUATION
ALC_CTRL[2:0]
Sine Wave Generator
The direct digital synthesizer (DDS) generates a
sinusoidal signal alternating between the space frequency
(fS, data 0) and the mark frequency (fM, data 1) as required
to modulate the desired bit pattern. Two 16−bit wide
frequency step registers, R_FM and R_FS, control the steps
used by the DDS and thus the frequencies.
The space and mark frequency can be calculated using
fS = R_FS[15:0]_dec • fDDS/218
fM = R_FM[15:0]_dec • fDDS/218
Equivalently, values for R_FS[15:0] and R_FM[15:0]
may be calculated from the desired carrier frequencies
R_FS[15:0]_dec = [218 • fS/fDDS]
R_FM[15:0]_dec = [218 • fM/fDDS]
With fDDS = 3 MHz the direct digital synthesizer clock
frequency and [x] equal to x rounded to the nearest integer.
At the start of the transmission the DDS phase
accumulator starts at 0, resulting in a 0 V output level.
Switching between fM and fS is phase−continuous. Upon
switching to receive mode the DDS completes the active
sine period. These precautions minimize spurious emissions.

Alternatively, automatic level control (ALC) may be used
by clearing the bit R_ALC_CTRL[3].
In this mode, the signal on the analogue input pin ALC_IN
controls the transmitter output level. First, peak detection is
performed. The peak value is then compared to two
thresholds levels VTLALC_IN and VTHALC_IN. Depending
on the value of the measured peak level on ALC_IN the
attenuation is updated using
VpALC_IN < VTLALC :increase the level with one 3 dB step
VTLALC ≤ VpALC_IN ≤ VTHALC :do not change the
attenuation
VpALC_IN > VTHALC :decrease the level with one 3 dB step
The gain changes in the next chip clock. Therefore, an
evaluation phase and a level adjustment phase take two
CHIP_CLK periods. ALC operation is enabled only during
the first 16 CHIP_CLK cycles after switching to transmit
mode.
Following reset, the level is set at minimum level
(maximum attenuation). When switching to reception mode
the last level is kept in memory. As a result the next transmit
frame starts with the old level.
Note that the DC level on the ALC_IN pin is fixed
internally to 1.65 V. As a result, a coupling capacitor is
usually required.
If the automatic level control feature is not used, the pin
ALC_IN may be left floating (not recommended) or tied to
ground.
DA Converter and Anti−aliasing Filter
A digital to analogue ΣΔ converter converts the sine wave
digital word to a pulse density modulated (PDM) signal. The
PDM stream is converted to an analogue signal with a first
order switched capacitor filter.
A 3rd order continuous time low pass filter in the transmit
path filters the quantization noise and noise generated by the
ΣΔ DA converter.
The −3 dB frequency of this filter can be set to 130 kHz for
applications using the CENELEC A band. In this
configuration, the response of the filter is virtually flat up to
95 kHz. Alternatively a −3 dB frequency of 195 kHz can be
selected yielding a flat response for the entire CENELEC A
to D band (i.e., up to 148.5 kHz). Refer to the documentation
of the firmware for more information.
The low pass filter is tuned automatically to compensate
for process variation.
Transmitter Output TX_OUT
The transmitter output is DC coupled to the TX_OUT pin.
Because the entire analogue part of the NCN49597 is
referenced to the analogue reference voltage REF_OUT
(about 1.65 V), a decoupling capacitor (C1 in Figure 18) is
usually required.
To suppress the second and third order harmonic of the
generated S−FSK signal it is recommended to use a low pass
filter. Figure 18 illustrates an MFB topology of a 2nd order
filter.
Amplifier with Automatic Level Control (ALC)
The analogue output of the low−pass filter is buffered by
a variable gain amplifier; 8 attenuation steps from 0 to
−21 dB (typical) with steps of 3 dB are provided.
The attenuation can be fixed by setting the bit
R_ALC_CTRL[3]. The embedded microcontroller can then
set the attenuation using register ALC_CTRL[2:0]. This

The modem indicates whether it is transmitting or

to turn on an external line driver.
TX_ENB is a 5 V safe with open drain output; an external
pull−up resistor must be added (Figure 18, R4).

The modem receiver block (Figures 20 and 23) filter,
digitalizes and partially demodulates the output signal of the
coupling circuit. Subsequently, the embedded microcontroller
core will demodulate the resulting digital stream. The
demodulation is described in the fact sheets of the various
firmware solutions.
The receiver demodulates the signal on the
communication channel.
Typically, an external line coupling circuit is required to
filter out the frequencies of interest on the communication
channel.

For the common case of communication over an AC power
line, a substantial 50 or 60 Hz residue is still present after the
line coupler. This residue − typically much larger than the
received signal − can easily overload the modem.
To improve communication performance, the NCN49597
provides a low−noise operational amplifier in a unity−gain
configuration which can be used to make a 50/60 Hz
suppression filter with only four external passive
components. Pin RX_IN is the non−inverting input and
RX_OUT is the output of the amplifier.
The internal reference voltage (described below) of
1.65 V is provided on REF_OUT and can be used for this
purpose. The current drawn from this pin should be limited
to 300 mA; in addition, adding a ceramic decoupling
capacitor of at least 1 mF is recommended.
The receiver block is composed of an operation amplifier
provided for filtering, a variable gain amplifier, an
anti−aliasing low pass filter and analogue to digital
convertor (ADC), and a digital quadrature downmixer.
When the modem is transmitting, the receive blocks are
disabled to save power. The only exception is the low−pass
filter, which is shared between receiver and transmitter and
therefore remains active.
50/60 Hz Suppression Filter
The line coupler − external to the modem and not
described in this document − couples the communication
channel to the low−voltage signal input of the modem.
Ideally the signal produced by the line coupler would only
contain the frequency band used by the S−FSK modulation.

The recommended topology is shown in Figure 21 and
realizes a second order filter. The filter characteristics are
determined by external capacitors and resistors. Typical
values are given in Table 9 for carrier frequencies of 63.3 and
T
74.5 kHz; the resulting frequency response is shown in
Figure 23. With a good layout, suppressing the residual
mains voltage (50 or 60 Hz) with 60 dB is feasible. To design
a filter for other frequencies, consult the design manual.

The receiver has a 3rd order continuous time low pass filter
in the signal path. This filter is in fact the same block as in
the transmit path which can be shared because NCN49597
works in half duplex mode. The same choice of −3 dB
frequency can be selected between 130 kHz (virtually flat up
to 95 kHz) or 195 kHz (flat up to 148.5 kHz).
The output of the low pass filter is input for an analog 4th
order sigma−delta converter. The DAC reference levels are
supplied from the reference block. The digital output of the
converter is fed into a noise shaping circuit blocking the
quantization noise from the band of interest, followed by
decimation and a compensation step.
It is important to note that the analog part of NCN49597
is referenced to the internal analogue reference voltage
REF_OUT, with a nominal value of 1.65 V. As a result, the
DC voltage on pin RX_IN must be 1.65 V for optimal
dynamic range. If the external signal has a substantially
different reference level capacitive coupling must be used.
Quadrature Demodulator
The quadrature demodulation block mixes the digital
output of the ADC with the local oscillators. Mixing is done
with the in−phase and quadrature phase of both the fS and fM
carrier frequencies. Thus, four down−mixed (baseband)
signals are obtained.
After low−pass filtering, the in−phase and quadrature
components of each carrier are combined. The resulting two
signals are a measure of the energy at each carrier frequency.
These energy levels are further processed in the firmware.
The firmware will demodulate the value of the bit (i.e.,
decide between a 0 or 1 bit) by weighing the energy over a
period of 8 chip clocks. Refer to the firmware data sheets for
details.
Automatic Gain Control (AGC)
In order to extend the range of the analogue−to−digital
convertor, the receiver path contains a variable gain
amplifier. The gain can be changed in 8 steps from 0 to
−42 dB.
This amplifier can be used in an automatic gain control
(AGC) loop. The loop is implemented in digital hardware.
It measures the signal level after analogue−to−digital
conversion. The amplifier gain is changed until the average
digital signal is contained in a window around a percentage
of the full scale. An AGC cycle takes two chip clocks: a
measurement cycle at the rising edge of the CHIP_CLK and
an update cycle starting at the next chip clock.

The application microcontroller has also low−level access
to internal timing of the modem through the digital output
DATA/PRES pin. The function of this pin depends on the
register bit R_CONF[7].
If the bit is cleared (0), the preslot synchronization signal
(PRE_SLOT) appears on the pin.
If the bit is set (1), the modem outputs the baseband,
unmodulated, data. Thus, DATA/PRES is driven high when
a space symbol is being transmitted (i.e., the space
frequency fS appears on pin TX_OUT); it is driven low when
a mask symbol is transmitted (fM on TX_OUT).
The processor is an ARM Cortex M0 32−bit core with a
reduced instruction set computer (RISC) architecture,
optimized for IO handling. Most instructions complete in a
single clock cycle, including byte multiplication. The
peripherals include a watchdog, test and debug control,
RAM, ROM containing the boot loader, UART, two timers,
an SPI interface to optional external memory, I/O ports and
the power−on reset. The microcontroller implements
interrupts.
The 32 kB RAM contains the necessary space to store the
firmware and the working data. A full−duplex serial
communication block allows interfacing to the application
microcontroller.
Testing
A JTAG debug interface is provided for development,
debugging and production test. An internal pull−down
resistor is provided on the input pins (TDI, TCK, TMS, and
TRSTB).
In practice, the end user of the modem will not need this
interface; this input pins may be tied to ground
(recommended) or left floating; TDO should be left floating.
The pin TEST enables the internal hardware test mode
when driven high. During normal operation, it should be tied
to ground (recommended) or left floating.
Local Port
Ten bidirectional general purpose input/output (GPIO)
pins (IO0..IO9) are provided. All general purpose IO pins
can be configured as an input or an output. In addition, the
firmware can emulate open−drain or open−source pins. All
pins are 5 V tolerant.
When the modem is booting, IO2 is configured as an input
and must be pulled low to enable uploading firmware over
the serial interface. At the same time, IO0 and IO1 are
configured as outputs and show the status of the boot loader.
A LED may be connected to IO0 to help with debugging.
After the firmware has been loaded successfully, IO0..IO2
become available as normal IOs.
Typically, the firmware provides status indication on
some IO pins; other IO pins remain available to the
application microcontroller as IO extensions.

Configuration Registers
A watchdog supervises the ARM microcontroller. In case
the firmware does not periodically signal the watchdog it is
alive, it is assumed an error has occurred and a hard reset is
generated.
The behavior of the modem is controlled by configuration
registers. Some registers can be accessed by the user through
the firmware. Table 11 gives an overview of some
commonly exposed registers.

Reset and Low Power
When switching on the power supply the output of the
crystal oscillator is disabled until a few thousand clock
pulses have been detected; this allows sufficient time for
oscillator start−up.
When the pin RESB is pulled low the power consumption
drops significantly. Power is drawn only to maintain the bias
of some analogue functions and the oscillator cell.
NCN49597 has two reset modes: hard reset and soft reset.
The hard reset re−initializes the complete IC (hardware
and ARM) excluding the data RAM for the ARM. This
guarantees correct start−up of the hardware and the
microcontroller.
The modem is kept in hard reset as long as pin RESB is
pulled low or the power supply VDD < VPOR (See Table 11).
Boot Loader
During operation, the modem firmware is stored in the
internal random access memory (RAM). As this memory is
volatile, the firmware must be uploaded after reset.
The NCN49597 provides two mechanisms to achieve
this: the firmware may be stored in an external SPI memory
or it may be uploaded over the serial communication
interface.
The memory must be connected to the pins of the
dedicated serial peripheral interface (SPI), as shown in
Figure 28. Any non−volatile memory with the standard
command set and three bytes addressing is supported; is
recommended.
The user must program the firmware into the external
memory starting from address 0. Four bytes must be added
at the end of the lowest 256−byte sector that can fit them, i.e.
either the sector containing the last byte of the firmware or
the next sector. These four bytes contain the checksum, the
number of sectors used, and the magical numbers A5H and
5AH. The checksum must be computed over the entire
binary.
Between the four metadata bytes and the firmware,
zero−padding must be written.
This is illustrated in Table 12.
Booting from External Memory
During reset, the boot loader module in the modem can
retrieve the firmware from an attached memory.
To enable this mode, the boot control pin SEN must be
driven high and IO2 must be driven low; subsequently the
modem must be reset.

bytes), followed by four bytes: checksum, 03H, A5H and
5AH.
Once the boot loader has finished copying the firmware to
the internal memory, the checksum is calculated and
compared to the stored checksum. If both match, the
processor is released from reset and the firmware starts
executing. IO2 subsequently becomes available as a normal
GPIO.

Interface
Zero padding, if required
During reset, the boot loader module in the modem can
receive the firmware over the serial interface.
To enable this mode, the IO2 and the boot control pin SEN
must be driven low; subsequently the modem must be reset.
IO2 must remain low during the entire boot process; if
driven high during boot the boot loader terminates
immediately. To restart the boot loader, reset the modem.
As soon as the reset of the modem is released, the boot
loader process starts. When it is ready to receive the
firmware from the external microcontroller, the boot loader
will send a 02H (STX) byte.
Upon receiving this byte the user must send the byte
sequence specified in Table 13. The sequence contains a
checksum to verify correctness of the received binary image.
The CRC must be calculated over the firmware binary only
(excluding the magical number and the size). The program
crc.exe, provided by ON Semiconductor, can be used for this
calculation.

boot loader will send a 15H (NAK) character. This error also
occurs when the user attempts to upload a binary exceeding
the maximal size of 7F00H (32512) bytes. When the
application microcontroller receives this NAK, it should
transmit a CEH (mnemonic for “clear error”) byte. This
informs the boot loader that the application microcontroller
understood the problem. Following the CEH byte, the
microcontroller may restart.
The timing constraints are illustrated in Figure 3.
Data transmission must start only after receiving the STX
byte. In addition, the first byte must be sent within 350 ms.
If these timing constraints are not satisfied the boot loader
will send a 15H (NAK) character and will reject any data
received until the application microprocessor stops sending
bytes for at least 100 ms. The pause will restart the boot
loader, and a new STX character will be sent to the
application microcontroller to indicate this.
Once transmission has started, the maximal delay
between consecutive bytes is 20 ms. If this timing

Application Information
The analogue and digital blocks are powered through
independent power supply pins (VDDA resp. VDD); the
nominal supply voltage is 3.3 V. On both pins, decoupling
must be provided with at least a ceramic capacitor of 100 nF
between the pin and the corresponding ground (VSSA resp.
VSS). The connection path of these capacitors on the printed
circuit board (PCB) should be kept as short as possible in
order to minimize the parasitic inductance.
It is recommended to tie both analogue and digital ground
pins to a single, uninterrupted ground plane.
For a system−level overview of power line
communication, refer to [7]. For more information on how
to design with the NCN49597 modem, refer to the design
manual available from your sales representative [1]. This
section gives a few hints.
Supplies and Decoupling
For optimal stability and noise rejection, all power
supplies must be decoupled as physically close to the device
as possible.

Internal Voltage Reference
Internal Voltage Regulator
REF_OUT is the analog output pin which provides the
voltage reference used by the A/D converter. This pin must
be decoupled to the analog ground by a 1 mF ceramic
capacitance CDREF. The connection path of this capacitor to
the VSSA on the PCB should be kept as short as possible in
order to minimize the serial inductance.
An internal linear regulator provides the 1.8 V core
voltage for the microcontroller. This voltage is connected to
pin VDD1V8. A ceramic decoupling capacitor of 1 mF to
ground must be connected as close as possible to this pin
(Figure 29).
The internal regulator should not be used to power other
components.
