The field-validated evaluation board is mainly aimed at simplifying the integration of TI's extensive analog, embedded processing and connectivity solutions and other product portfolios, which can fully meet the needs of smart grids
Beijing, September 24, 2013-A few days ago, Texas Instruments (TI) announced the launch of a power-line communication (PLC) system-level module and an intelligent data concentrator evaluation board (EVM) that supports software, which can help smart grid development Personnel implement highly robust automatic meter reading (AMR), advanced instrument infrastructure (AMI), and sensor network automation applications. This highly integrated TMDSDC3359 EVM has many performance, cost and connection options, can provide extremely high flexibility and scalability, and can help developers create data concentrator designs that comply with many different smart grid standards around the world. For more details about the latest intelligent data concentrator EVM, please visit: http://www.TI.com.cn/tool/cn/tmdsdc3359.
TI's highly scalable Sitara ™ AM3359 processor enables expanded wired and wireless connectivity options through highly flexible peripherals. Developers can easily add multiple connection options, including sub-1 GHz (LPRF), general packet radio service (GPRS), ZigBee®, Wi-Fi, near field communication (NFC), and multiple PLC standards. The PLC system-level module (SOMPLC-F28PLC83) includes TI C2000 ™ Piccolo ™ F28PLC83 microcontroller and AFE031 analog front end (AFE), which provides robust G3, PRIME, and S-FSK support. Adding system-level modules and TI PLC software protocol stacks (PRIME, G3, IEEE P1901.2 or PLC-Lite ™) to the intelligent data concentrator EVM can help developers complete PLC support in as little as 10 minutes Data concentrator demo settings.
The latest intelligent data concentrator EVM is mainly aimed at simplifying the use of TI's extensive complementary analog, embedded processing and wireless connection product portfolio, which can fully meet the needs of the smart grid. As a comprehensive TI system solution, TMDSDC3359 EVM includes more than 20 analog components including TI power management (such as TPS65910), interfaces (such as SN65HVD3082 and TRS3221), isolation (such as ISO3082 and ISO7131), and logic product series (SN74LVC1G08). These analog products can help smart grid developers simplify the design of TI processors, microcontrollers and connection solutions.

An extensive open source Linux software development kit with fully customizable pre-written code can help developers add functionality and features to the data concentrator design without the need for cumbersome code writing and debugging. In addition, it also contains resources such as PLC protocol stack (PLC-Lite, PRIME, G3, IEEE-P1901.2), network protocols, and various applications (such as DLMS / COSEM), which can help developers target multiple regions and global standards customized product. Developers can also make full use of customizable hardware and software to make the latest intelligent data concentrator EVM easily adapt to the needs of the final product. With an advanced evaluation board that shortens the design cycle by up to 9 months, developers can concentrate on accelerating the time-to-market of differentiated products.
Features and advantages of the latest intelligent data concentrator EVM:
· Contains TI Sitara AM3359 processor, which can provide the necessary performance improvement space for the complex routing algorithm in the data concentrator, so as to realize the connection with more than 2000 meters;
· Adopt Sitara AM335x processor or Tiva ™ C series ARM MCU, which can provide developers with richer performance (80MHz to 1GHz) and cost options;
· Contains advanced software and hardware, not only can reduce the development process by 9 months, but also support fast connection with more than 2000 smart meters;
· TI's AFE031 for energy measurement is used in conjunction with C2000 MCU to provide the industry's only complete two-chip PLC solution, which contains all active circuits for transmission, reception, and control. AFE031 is a low-cost integrated PLC AFE that can realize capacitive coupling or transformer coupling connection for power lines under the control of C2000 MCU;
· Integrated communication interface includes two Ethernet (MAC) ports, USB and up to 8 UARTs, which can realize fast and convenient connection with other systems on the smart grid;
· Provide multiple PLC protocol stacks for MAC and PHY layers, developers can create various designs that support PLC-Lite, PRIME, G3 and IEEE-P1901.2 standards;
· DLMS / COSEM application standards with third-party Aricent support can pre-determine how the data concentrator combines metering data and sends it back to the utility.

HDG poles can be designed to encircle existing structures with ease and facilitate future expansion or retrofitting. HDG steel poles are self-conducting and thus have no need for a full-length copper grounding wire, and they can either be embedded or have an anchor base, and do not require fastener retightening due to pole shrinkage.
