EVALST7590T-2

EVALST7590T-2 STarGRID™ ST7590T SoC PRIME-certified powerline communication development kit Data brief Features ■ PRIME-certified powerline communication development kit based on STarGRID™ ST7590T PLC SoC ■ Complete and certified EN50065 compliant reference design for modular and integrated PRIME-based application development ■ Onboard STM32F103RG microcontroller for system management and application host controller ■ AC power supply based on the ALTAIR04-900 quasi-resonant current mode SMPS controller ■ RS232 / RS485 host interface to STM32F103RG microcontroller with optocouplers for double insulation ■ Intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) ■ Suitable for CENELEC EN50065 and FCC part 15 compliant applications industrial implementation and customization, as well as to provide ready and customizable solutions for any special, low-volume application. Description Based on the ST7590 powerline communication system-on-chip, the EVALST7590T-2 development kit embeds all the functions required for a turnkey powerline communication network: the PLC node is based on the ST7590T device, the AC power supply is based on the ALTAIR4900 SMPS controller and the STM32F103RG microcontroller, to either control the system as a standalone application or to connect the EVALST7590T-2 to an external host. The EVALST7590T-2 embeds ST’s full PRIMEcompliant protocol stack and provides a complete reference for PRIME-based applications such as smart meters or concentrators, and is an ideal standalone tool for in-field PRIME network tests. The EVALST7590T-2 kit supports DLMS/COSEM libraries and has been jointly developed by ST and Fideltronik to accelerate high-volume November 2012 Doc ID 023818 Rev 1 For further information contact your local STMicroelectronics sales office. 1/4 www.st.com 4 Schematic diagram EVALST7590T-2 1 Schematic diagram Figure 1.
