1.2 Electrical Specifications

This section shows the electrical characteristics of the kit’s boards.

Table 1-1. Power Supply Requirements
Parameter	Condition	Min.	Typ.	Max.	Unit
AC Mains Voltage Range		100	115/230	250	V_AC
Mains Frequency			50/60		Hz
Maximum Input Current				200⁽¹⁾	mA
Isolation Voltage	AC/DC power supply and PLC coupling transformer			3000	V_AC

Note that the PL360MB can be supplied with 100V_AC, 115V_AC or 230V_AC by setting the proper jumpers (pitch = 5.08mm) in the voltage selector, J2, as depicted in the Figure 3-13. By default, voltage jumper is set for 230V_AC. For more information about power supply, see section Power Supply System.

Note:

This maximum input current is measured in the worst consumption conditions so that when the board is supplied with a minimum input voltage, 100V_AC, and it emits against very low impedance in FCC frequency band, the display is on and it is supplying an external board (400 mA at 12 V) through the DC jack, J15.

Table 1-2. Power Consumption
Parameter	Condition	Typ.	Max.	Unit
TX Power Consumption	FW: G3 CEN-A PHY TX Test Console Application. Low Impedance Load (2 Ohm LISN, see Figure C.1 of ITU-T G.9901). Measured on V_DD (12 Volts) DC/DC output.	2200⁽¹⁾	3620⁽¹⁾	mW
TX Power Consumption	FW: G3 CEN-A PHY TX Test Console Application. High Impedance Load (CISPR LISN, see Figure 5 of EN50065-1). Measured on V_DD (12 Volts) DC/DC output.	1490⁽¹⁾	3360⁽¹⁾	mW
RX Power Consumption	Measured on 3.3V LDO output	479⁽¹⁾	594⁽¹⁾	mW
Low power mode current consumption	-	<10⁽²⁾		µA

Notes:

These measurements were taken with a non-optimized FW from a power consumption point of view (PHY TX Test Console project included in the kit with a default configuration in TX mode and RX mode) and also affected by the architecture and efficiency of the power supplies. These measurements correspond to the whole PCBA design and not only to PL360 and SAM4CMS16C devices. All PCB peripherals are supplied, i.e. LCD display and PLCOUP007 coupling board emitting in CENELEC A-band. Refer to PL360 and SAM4CMS16C datasheets for an optimized power consumption measurement result.
