The powerline network protocol layer and the physical layer FSK modem are implemented on the
CY8CPLC20 chip. The chip also contains a PSoC core in addition to the PLC core. The power
amplification and coupling circuits are built using discrete components.
The network protocol layer allows for the addressing of multiple nodes on the network. This enables
point-to-multipoint communication. The protocol layer also provides a defined packet structure for
transmitting data packets from one node to the other as well as error detection and packet retransmit
functionalities.
