The powerline network protocol layer and the physical layer FSK modem are implemented on the
CY8CLED16P01 chip. The chip also contains PSoC core in addition to the PLC core. The power
amplification and coupling circuits are built using discrete components.
The network protocol layer allows addressing of multiple nodes on the network. This enables point-
to-multipoint communication. The protocol layer also provides a defined packet structure for trans-
mitting data packets from one node to the other. It also provides error detection and packet retrans-
mit functionalities.
