AMIS-30585
S-FSK PLC Modem
General Description
The AMIS−30585 is a half duplex S−FSK modem and is dedicated
for the data transmission on low− or medium−voltage power lines.
The device offers complete handling of the protocol layers from the
physical up to the MAC. AMIS−30585 complies with the EN 50065
CENELEC, IEC 1334−4−32 and the IEC 1334−5−1 standards.
It operates from a single 3.3 V power supply and is interfaced to the
power line by an external power driver and transformer. An internal
PLL is locked to the mains frequency (50 Hz or 60 Hz) and is used to
synchronize the data transmission at data rates of 300, 600 and 1200
baud for a 50 Hz mains frequency, corresponding to 3.6 or 12 data bits
per half cycle of the mains frequency (50 Hz or 60 Hz).

Description
where the timing is less critical, typically the higher level
functions, the circuit makes use of the ARM 7TDMI
microprocessor core.
The processor runs DSP algorithms and, at the same time,
handles the communication protocol. The communication
protocol, in this application, contains the MAC = Medium
Access Control Layer. The program running on the
microprocessor is stored into an on−board ROM. The
working data necessary for the processing is stored in an
internal RAM. For the back−end side, the link to the
application hardware, a SCI is provided. The SCI is an easy
to use serial interface, which allows communication
between an external processor used for the application
software and the AMIS−30585 modem. The SCI works on
two wires: TXD and RXD. Baud rate is programmed by
setting 2 bits (BR0, BR1).
Due to the handling of the low protocol layers in the
circuit, the AMIS−30585 provides an innovative
architectural split. Thanks to this, the user has the benefit of
a higher level interface of the link to the PLC medium.
Compared to an interface at the physical level, the
AMIS−30585 allows faster development of applications.
The user just needs to send the raw data to the AMIS−30585
and no longer has to take care of the protocol detail of the
transmission over the specific medium. This last part
represents usually 50 percent of the software development
costs.
The AMIS−30585 is a single chip modem dedicated to
power line carrier (PLC) communication in compliance to
the European standard IEC 1334−5−1 and IEC 1334−4−32.
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”. The difference between S−FSK and the classical FSK
lies in the fact that fs and fm are now placed far from each
other, making their transmission quality independent from
each other (the strengths of the small interferences and the
signal attenuation are both independent at the two
frequencies). The frequency pairs supported by the
AMIS−30585 are in the range of 9−95 kHz with a typical
separation of 10 kHz.
The circuit is mostly digital. The conversion of the analog
signal is performed at the front−end of the circuit. The
processing of the signal and the handling of the protocol is
digital. At the back−end side, the interface to the application
is done through a serial interface. The digital processing of
the signal is partitioned between hardwired blocks and a
microprocessor block. The micro−processor is controlled by
firmware. Where timing is most critical, the functions are
implemented with dedicated hardware. For the functions

DETAILED BLOCKS DESCRIPTION
optimized for IO handling. For most of the instructions, the
machine is able to perform one instruction per clock cycle.
The microcontroller contains the necessary hardware to
implement interrupt mechanisms, timers and is able to
perform byte multiplication over one instruction cycle. The
microcontroller is programmed to handle the physical layer
(chip synchronization), the MAC. The program is stored in
a masked ROM. The RAM contains the necessary space to
store the working data. The back−end interface is done
through the SPI block. This back−end is used for data
transmission with the application hardware (concentrator,
power meter, etc.) and for the definition of the modem
configuration.
Receiver Path Description
The analog signal coming from the line−interface chip is
low pass filtered in order to avoid aliasing during the
conversion. Then the level of the signal is automatically
adapted by an automatic gain control (AGC) block. This
operation maximizes the dynamic range of the incoming
signal. The signal is then converted to its digital
representation using sigma delta modulation. From then on,
the processing of the data is done in a digital way. By using
dedicated hardware, a direct quadrature demodulation is
performed. The signal demodulated in the base band is then
low pass filtered to reduce the nose and reject the image
spectrum.

TX_OUT
For the generation of the tones, the direct digital synthesis
of the sine wave frequencies is performed under the control
of the microprocessor. After a signal conditioning step, a
digital to analog conversion is performed. As for the receive
path, a sigma delta modulation technique is used. In the
analog domain, the signal is low pass filtered, in order to
remove the high frequency quantization noise, and passed to
the automatic level controller (ACL) block, where the level
of the transmitted signal can be adjusted. The determination
of the signal level is done through the sense circuitry.
ALC_IN
According to the IEC standard, the frame data is
transmitted at the zero crossing of the mains voltage. In
order to recover the information at the zero crossing, a zero
crossing detection of the mains is performed. A
phase−locked loop (PLL) structure is used in order to allow
a more reliable reconstruction of the synchronization. This
PLL permits as well a safer implementation of the
“repetition with credit” function (also known as chorus
transmission). The clock generator makes use of a precise
quartz oscillator master. The clock signals are then obtained
by the use of a programmed division scheme. The support
circuits are also contained in this block. The support circuits
include the necessary blocks to supply the references
voltages for the AD and DA converters, the biasing currents
and power supply sense cells to generate the right power off
and startup conditions.

Pin 3: RX_IN
RX_IN is the positive analog input pin of the receiver low
noise input op−amp. Together with the pins two and three,
an active high pass filter is realized. This filter removes the
main frequency (50 or 60 Hz) from the received signal. The
filter characteristics are determined by external capacitors
and resistors. Typical values are given in Table 2. For these
values and after this filter, a typical attenuation of 80 dB at
50 or 60 Hz is obtained. Table 2 represents external
components connection. The present construction supposes
the presence of a previous formed with the coupling
transformer and a parallel capacitance is placed on the
mains. This last one performs a typical attenuation of 60 dB.
The combined effect of the two filters decreases the voltage
level of the main frequency well below the sensitivity of the
AMIS−30585.
Pin 1: VSSA
VSSA is the analog ground supply pin. It is strongly
recommended putting a decoupling capacitance between
this pin and the VDDA pin. This capacitance value is:
100 nF ±10 percent ceramic. Connection path of the
capacitance to the VSSA and VDDA on the PCB should be
kept as short as possible in order to minimize the serial
resistance.
Pin 2: RX_OUT
RX_OUT is the output analog pin of the receiver low
noise input op−amp. This op−amp is in a negative feedback
configuration. To know how to use this pin, refer to the
explanations given for pin RX_IN.

transmission request. So this pin is used as an input pin for
the chip in the normal working mode. This signal is used in
order to initiate a local communication from the
microcontroller to the AMIS−30585. The T_REQ signal is
active when low. IO0 and IO1 are assigned to drive external
LED. The embedded software defines pin activation.
Figure 3. External Component Connection
The goal of the CDREF capacitance is to put the DC
voltage of the received signal at the right level for the
internal components. See also description of the pin

Pin 4: REF_OUT
All these pins are part of the JTAG bus interface. It will be
connected to the ARM ICE interface box. This provides an
access to the embedded ARM processor. These pins are used
during the debugging of the embedded software. Pin
characteristics are in−line with the ARM JTAG interface
specification. They will not be described here. Input pins
(TDI, TCK, TMS, and TRSTB) contain internal pull−down
resistance. TDO is an output. When not in use, the JTAG
interface pins may be left floating.
REF_OUT is the analog output pin, which provides the
voltage reference used by the A/D converter. This pin must
be decoupled from the analog ground by a 1 mF ±10 percent
ceramic capacitance (CDREF). This must be done as close
as possible on the PCB. See Figure 4. It is not allowed to load
this pin with other impedance load.
Pin 5: M50HZ_IN
M50HZ_IN is the mains frequency analog input pin − 50
or 60 Hz. This pin is used to detect the crossing of the zero
voltage on one selected phase. This information is used, after
filtering with the internal PLL, to synchronize frames with
the mains frequency. In case of direct connection to the
mains, the use of a series resistor of 1 MW is advised in order
to limit the current flowing through the protection diodes.
Pin 12: TX_DATA
TX_DATA provides the digital output signal not
modulated. It gives the logical level associated with the
transmitted frequency. So, to transmit a frequency fs, the
TX_DATA logical state is 0 and is present on TX_DATA. To
transmit a frequency fm, the TX_DATA logical state is 1.
This output pin is an open drain. An external pull−up
resistance is needed to perform the voltage level associated
with a logical one (as for the IOx pins).
Pin 6, 19 and 22: IO0, IO1 and IO2
IO0, IO1 and IO2 are general−purpose digital input and
output pins. Only the IO2 pin is used – this is an input for the
chip. All IOs support 5 V level on the bus (5 V safe IO).
When used as outputs, they must be able to deliver the 5 V
on the bus if necessary. Outputs are open drain NMOS. The
high level is created by opening the internal open drain
MOS. The 5 V level is obtained by the use of an external
pull−up resistance. Figure 4 gives a representation of a 5 V
safe IO. A typical value for the pull−up resistance “RES” is
10 KW. With a larger value for “RES”, the current flowing
through this resistance is reduced, hence the switch time
from 0 V up to 5 V. IO2 pin is used as T_REQ signal, i.e. the
Pin 13: XIN
XIN is the analog input pin of the oscillator. It is connected
to the interval oscillator inverter gain stage. The clock signal
can be created either internally with the external crystal and
two capacitors or by connecting an external clock signal to
XIN. For the internal generation case, the two external
capacitors and crystal are placed as shown in Figure 5. For
the external clock connection, the signal is connected to XIN
and XOUT is left unused.

AMIS−30585
Figure 5. Placement of the Capacitors and Crystal with Clock Signal Generated Internally
Pin 17: TXD
The crystal is a classical parallel resonance crystal of
24 MHz. The values of the capacitors CX are given by the
manufacturer of the crystal. Typical value is 30 pF. The
crystal has to fulfill impedance characteristics specified in
the AMIS−30585 data sheet. As an oscillator is sensitive and
precise, it is advised to put the crystal as close as possible on
the board.
TXD is the digital output of the asynchronous serial
communication (SCI) unit. Only half−duplex transmission
is supported. It is used to realize the communication between
the AMIS−30585 and the application microcontroller. The
TXD is an open drain IO (5 V safe). External pull−up
resistances (typically 10 K) are necessary to generate the 5 V
level. Refer to Figure 4 for the circuit schematic.
Pin 14: XOUT
XOUT is the analog output pin of the oscillator. When the
clock signal is provided from an external generator, this
output must be floating. When working with a crystal, this
pin cannot be used directly as clock output because no
additional loading is allowed on the pin (limited voltage
swing).
Pin 18: RXD
Pin 15: VSS
Pin 19: IO2
This is the digital input of the asynchronous SCI unit.
Only half−duplex transmission is supported. This pin
supports a 5 V level. It is used to realize the communication
between the AMIS−30585 and the application micro−
controller. The RXD is a 5 V safe input.
IO0, IO1 and IO2 are general−purpose digital input and
output pins. See Pin 6 for detailed explanation.
VSS is the digital ground supply pin. This pin must be
decoupled from the digital supply by a 100 nF ±10 percent
ceramic capacitor. It is advised to put this capacitance as
close as possible on the PCB.
Pin 20, 21: BR1, BR0
BR0 and BR1 are digital input pins. They are used to select
the baud rate (bits/second) of the SCI unit. The rate is
defined according to Table 3. The values are taken into
account after a reset, hardware or software. Modification of
the baud rate during function is not possible. BR0 and BR1
are 5 V safe.
Pin 16: VDD
VDD is the 3.3 V digital supply pin. This pin must be
connected to VSS by a decoupling capacitor (C_DEC) as
explained for the pin 15.

AMIS−30585
Pin 23: RESB
Pin 25: TX_ENB
RESB is a digital input pin. It is used to perform a
hardware reset of the AMIS−30585. This pin supports a 5 V
voltage level. The reset is active when the signal is low
(0 V).
TX_ENB is a digital output pin. It is high when the
transmitter is activated. The signal is available to turn on the
line driver. TX_ENB is a 5 V safe with open drain output,
hence a pull−up resistance is necessary to achieve the
requested voltage level associated with a logical one. See
also Figure 4 for reference.
Pin 24: TEST
TEST is a digital input pin. It is used to enable the test
mode of the chip. Normal mode is activated when TEST
signal is low (0 V). For normal operation, the TEST pin may
be left unconnected. Thank to the internal pull−down, the
signal is maintained to low (0 V). TEST pin is not 5 V safe.
Pin 26: TX_OUT
TX_OUT is the analog output pin of the transmitter. The
provided signal is the S−FSK modulated frames. A filtering
operation must be performed to reduce the second order
harmonic distortion. For this purpose an active filter is
realized. Figure 7 gives the representation of this filter.
Figure 7. TX_OUT Filter
Pin 27: ALC_IN
Pin 28: VDDA
ALC_IN is the automatic level control analog input pin.
The signal is used to adjust the level of the transmitted
signal. The signal level adaptation is based on the AC
component. The DC level on the ALC_IN pin is fixed
internally to 1.65 V. Comparing the peak voltage of the AC
signal with two internal thresholds does the adaptation of the
gain. Low threshold is fixed to 0.4 V. A value under this
threshold will result in an increase of the gain. The high
threshold is fixed to 0.6 V. A value over this threshold will
result in a decrease of the gain. The pin must be decoupled
from the sensed signal by a 1 mF capacitor. An application
example is given in Figure 8. A serial capacitance is used to
filter the DC components. The level adaptation is performed
during the transmission of the first two bits of a new frame.
Eight successive adaptations are performed.
VDDA is the positive analog supply pin. Nominal voltage
supply is 3.3 V. A decoupling capacitor (C_DEC) must be
placed between this pin and the VSSA (see pin 1).

The oscillator works with a standard parallel resonance

gain stage and XOUT is the output.
For correct functioning the following external circuit
must be connected to the oscillator pins (Values of capacitors
are indicative only and are given by the crystal
manufacturer. For a crystal requiring a parallel capacitance
of 20 pF CX must be around 30 pF.)
To guarantee startup the series loss resistance of the

The parasitic leakage resistance between XIN and XOUT
must be higher than 1 MW. The parasitic leakage resistance
between XIN and VSS must be higher than 1 MW.
When working with a crystal, XOUT cannot be used

Application Example
Configuration
Configuration is loaded through the SCI interface from
the application controller.

• Master/slave/monitor/initialization configuration
• Baud rate selection 300/600/1200
Baud for 50 Hz mains
• Baud rate selection 360/720/1440
The pin M50HZ_IN can be used as a mains zero crossing
detector input. If the mains are connected directly to this pin
a resistance must be connected in series to limit the current
through the protection diodes. Advisable is a series resistor
of 1 MW (R50). The zero crossing detector output is logic
zero when the input is lower than the falling threshold level
and a logic one when the input is higher than the rising
threshold level.
The falling edges of the output of the zero crossing
detector are filtered by a period between 0.5 ms and 1 ms.
Rising edges are not filtered.
A typical application example is given below. The
example shows the AMIS−30585 with its companion
devices. Namely the power line driver (AMIS−3058), the
application controller and a meter device interface.
Between the modem chip and the line driver, an active
bandpass filter is used to reduce the noise outside the
transmission band. The filter is realized with external
passive components.
From the line driver, the connection to the mains is done
through a line transformer and a capacitive coupling.
From the application side, the interface between the
modem and the application is done through the SCI. The link
to the meter device will be done easily by using the meter
device interface chip. This device is used to realize the
physical interface between the controller and the standard
S0 pulse (DIN 19234) generator output of the meter device.
C1 = C2 = 325 pF, R1 = 22.6 K, R2 = 2.2 K, R3 = 16.5 K,
R4 = 1 K, R5 = 1.66 K.
Other values are given in the typical external components
paragraph.
5 V Safe Output
5 V safe pins are open drain output. The high level is
detained by placing a pull up resistance between the output
pin and the 5 V supply. Typical resistance value is 10 kW.
