Overview

The MAX2992 powerline communication (PLC) baseband modem delivers half-duplex, asynchronous data communication over AC power lines at speeds up to 300kbps (full FCC band data rate). The MAX2992 is a system-on-chip (SoC) that combines the physical (PHY) and media access control (MAC) layers using Maxim’s 32-bit MAXQ30 microcontroller core.
