Powerline (PLC), Wireline, G.hn, G,Fast, Analog Front-End (AFE) ultra-efficient Area and Power
Powerline (PLC), Wireline, G.hn, G,Fast, Analog Front-End (AFE) ultra-efficient Area and Power Analog Front End Interface for Wireline, Powerline, G.hn and G.Fast Communications. The AFE consists of a TX Path, and RX Path and Supporting Functions. The AFE incorporates on the transmit side the TX DAC to the current amplifier (IAMP), whilst on the receive side, it includes the analog channel equalizer (ACE) to the PGA and ADC. The clock reference circuitry consists of a PLL, Clock Buffers and Clock routing. The TX-Path DAC is a 12-Bit Current DAC (TX-DAC). The TX-DAC is followed by a ...
