Overview
Description
The R9A06G037 is a high-performance Narrow Band Power Line Communication (NB-PLC) modem IC. It integrates a high-performance DSP core and an MCU core (Arm® Cortex®-M3). The DSP core mainly handles the PLC PHY layer protocol and the Arm core handles the upper layer protocol. R9A06G037 can support a variety of PLC protocols such as G3-PLC (CENELEC, ARIB, and FCC), PRIME, and many others.
