Qualcomm QCA7450 - 500+ Mbps HomePlug AV-based IC

The QCA7450 is a Powerline Communications (PLC) transceiver IC. This IC is the first in a family of HomePlug AV2 compliant solutions from QCA and delivers best-in-class performance at greater cost efficiencies in rBOM. The chipset operates over a wide spectrum (2 MHz to 68 MHz), delivering upto 600 MbpsMbps resulting in the delivery of high-quality, high-resolution A/V over powerlines. The QCA7450 includes a complete IEEE 1901 and HomePlug AV2 pre-compliant MAC and PHY, RGMII host The QCA7450 includes high-precision A/D (Analog to- Digital) and D/A (Digital-to-Analog) converters required for analog interface to the AR1540 AFE/Line Driver IC. The companion chip is the AR1540 Line Driver IC. The AR1540 Line Driver IC includes a Tx filter, a programmable-gain line driver and a programmable-gain Rx amplifier. The amplifier programmability allows signal optimization and multi-region support to reduce complexity in global product designs.
