asynchronous mode. st7538 allows to interface the host controller using a 3 line interface (rxd,txd & rxtx ). data are exchange without any auxiliary clock reference in an asynchronous mode without adding any protocol bits. the host controller has to recover the clock reference in receiving mode and control the bit time in transmission mode. rxd line is forced to a low logic level when no carrier is detected. reg_data rxtx data transmission 0 0 data reception 0 1 control register read 1 1 control register write 1 0 rxd clr/t reg_data rxtx st7538 host controller txd asynchronous data interface rxd clr/t reg_data rxtx st7538 host controller txd synchronous data interface d03in1415 obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) st7538 12/30 ? synchronous mode. st7538 allows to interface the host controller using a four lines synchronous interface (rxd,txd, clr/ t & rxtx ). st7538 is always the master of the communication and provides the clock reference on clr/ t line. when st7538 is in receiving mode an internal pll recovers the clock reference. data on rxd line are stable on clr/t rising edge. when st7538 is in transmitting mode the clock reference is internally generated and data are read on txd line on clr/t rising edge. if rxtx line is set to ?1? & reg_data=?0? (data reception), st7538 enters in an idle state and clr/t line is forced low. after tcc time the modem starts providing received data on rxd line. if rxtx line is set to ?0? & reg_data=?0? (data transmission), st7538 enters in an idle state and trans- mission circuitry is switched on. after tcc time the modem starts transmitting data present on txd line (figure 6) . figure 5. receiving and transmitting data/recovered clock timing figure 6. data reception -> data transmission -> data reception 3.5 control register access the communication with st7538 control register is always synchronous. the access is achieved using the same lines of the mains interface (rxd, txd and clr/t) plus reg_data line. with reg_data = 1 and rxtx =0, the data present on txd are loaded into the control register msb first. the st7538 samples the txd line on clr/t rising edges. the control register content is updated at the end of the register access section (reg_data falling edge). if more than 24 bits are transferred to st7538 only the latest 24 bits are stored inside the control register. with reg_data = 1 and rxtx =1, the content of the control register is sent on rxd port. the data on rxd are stable on clr/t rising edges msb first. transmitting bit synchronization clr/t rxd clr/t txd receiving bit synchronization t s t h d03in1416 t cc t ds t cr t cr t dh t s t h t b t cc clr_t rxd rxtx txd reg_data d03in1402 bit23 bit22 obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) 13/30 st7538 figure 7. data reception ?

and reg_data=0. the input signal is read on rai pin using sgnd as ground reference and then pre-filtered by a band pass filter (62khz max. bandwidth at -3db). the pre-filter can be removed setting one bit in the control reg- ister. the input stage features a wide dynamic range to receive signal with a very low signal to noise ratio. the amplitude of the applied waveform is automatically adapted by an automatic gain control block (agc) and then filtered by a narrow band band-pass filter centered around the selected channel frequency (14khz max. bandwidth at -3db). the resulting signal is down-converted by a mixer using a sinewave generated by the fsk modulator. finally an intermediate frequency band pass-filter (if filter) improves the signal to noise ration before sending the signal to the fsk demodulator. the fsk demod- ulator then send the signal to the rx logic for final digital filtering. digital filtering removes noise spikes far from the baud rate frequency and reduces the signal jitter. rxd line is forced at logic level ?0? when neither mark or space frequencies are detected on rai pin. mark and space frequency in receiving mode must be distant at least baudrate/2 to have a correct de- modulation. while st7538 is in receiving mode ( rxtx pin =?1?), the transmit circuitry, power line interface included, are turned off. this allows the device to achieve a very low current consumption (5 ma typ). in receiving mode atop2 pin is internally connected to pavss. high sensitivity mode it is possible to increase st7538 receiving sensitivity setting to ?1? the high sensitivity bit of control register. this function allows to increase the communication reliability when the st7538 sensitivity is the limiting factor. synchronization recovery system (pll) st7538 embeds a clock recovery system to feature a synchronous data exchange with the host controller. the clock recovery system is realized by means of a second order pll. data on the data line (rxd) are stable on clr/t line rising edge (clr/t falling edge synchronized to rxd line transitions lock-in range). the pll lock-in and lock-out range is /2. when the pll is in the unlock condition, clr/t and rxd lines are forced to a low logic level. when pll is in unlock condition it is sensitive to rxd rising and falling edges. the maximum number of transition required to reach the lock-in condition is 5. when in lock-in condition the pll is sensitive only to rxd rising edges to reduce the clr/t jitter. st7538 pll is forced in the un-lock condition, when more than 32 equal symbols are received. due to the fact that the pll, in lock-in condition, is sensitive only to rxd rising edge, sequences equal or longer than 15 equal symbols can put the pll into the un-lock condition. figure 11. st7538 pll lock-in range clr/t rxd d03in1417 lock-in range obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) 15/30 st7538 carrier/preamble detection the carrier/preamble block is a digital frequency detector circuit. it can be used to manage the mains access and to detect an incoming signal. two are the possible setting: - carrier detection - preamble detection carrier detection : the carrier/preamble detection block notifies to the host controller the presence of a carrier when it detects on the rai input a signal with an harmonic component close to the programmed carrier frequency. the cd_pd signal sensitivity is identical to the data reception sensitivity (0.5mvrms typ. in normal sensitivity mode). the cd_pd line is forced to a logic level low when a carrier is detected. preamble detection : the carrier/preamble detection block notifies to the host controller the presence of a carrier modulated at the programmed baud rate for at least 4 consecutive symbols (?1010? or ?0101? are the symbols sequences detected). cd_pd line is forced low till a carrier signal is detected and pll is in the lock-in range. to reinforce the effectiveness of the information given by cd_pd block, a digital filtering is applied on carrier or preamble notification signal (see control register paragraph). the detection time bits in the control register define the filter performance. increasing the detection time reduced the false notifications caused by noise on main line. the digital filter adds a delay to cd_pd notification equal to the programmed detection time. when the carrier frequency disappears, cd_pd line is held low for a period equal to the detection time and then forced high. figure 12. cd_pd timing during rx figure 13. receiving path block diagram t dcd t cd cd_pd rai d03in1418 low pass band pass pre-filter if filter fsk demodulaor digital filter mixer carrier/ preamble detection agc gain control local osc 32 31 bit 23 bit 0 -2 bit 3,4 &14-21 bit 0-2 rai rxfo bit 9 & 10 bit 12 & 13 carrier detection 3 rxd 8 clr/t 1 cd_pd 9 bu pll bit 3,4 low pass band in use bit 3,4 band pass channel filter band pass d03in1419 obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) st7538 16/30 3.7 transmission mode the transmit mode is set when rxtx pin =?0? and reg_data pin =?0?. in transmitting mode the fsk mod- ulator and the power line interface are turned on. the transmit data (txd) enter synchronously or asyn- chronously to the fsk modulator. ? host controller synchronous communication mode: on clr/t rising edge, txd line value is read and sent to the fsk modulator. st7538 manage the transmission timing according to the baudrate se- lected ? host controller asynchronous communication mode: txd data enter directly to the fsk modulator.the host controller manages the transmission timing in both conditions no protocol bits are added by st7538. the fsk frequencies are synthesized in the fsk modulator from a 16 mhz crystal oscillator by direct dig- ital synthesis technique. the frequencies table in different configuration is reported in table 8. the fre- quencies precision is same as external crystal one?s. in the analog domain, the signal is filtered in order to reduce the output signal spectrum and to reduce the harmonic distortion. the transition between a symbol and the following is done at the end of the on-going half fsk sinewave cycle. figure 14. transmitting path block diagram transmission filter fsk modulator d-type flip flop dac 21 19 8 5 24 7 timer thermal sensor voltage loop current loop clr/t generator zero crossing 23 29 vsense cl atop2 atop1 ato clr/t txd tout 16 15 zcin zcout bit 14 bit 0-5 bit 0-2 bit 7 & 8 band pass pli alc pli pli d03in1420 obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) 17/30 st7538 automatic level control (alc) the automatic level control block (alc) is a variable gain amplifier (with 32 non linear discrete steps) controlled by two analog feed backs acting at the same time. the alc gain range is 0db to 30 db and the gain change is clocked at 5khz. each step increases or reduces the voltage of 1db (typ). two are the control loops acting to define the alc gain: - a voltage control loop - a current control loop the voltage control loop acts to keep the peak-to-peak voltage constant on vsense. the gain adjustment is related to the result of a peak detection between the voltage waveform on vsense and two internal voltage references. - if vsense < vcl th - vcl hyst the next gain level is increased by 1 step - if vcl th - vcl hyst < vsense < vcl th + vcl hyst no gain change - if vsense > vcl th + vlc hyst the next gain level is decreased by 1 step the current control loop acts to limit the maximum peak output current inside atop1 and atop2. the current control loop acts through the voltage control loop decreasing the output peak-to-peak amplitude to reduce the current inside the power line interface. the current sensing is done by mirroring the current in the high side mos of the power amplifier (not dissipating current sensing). the output current limit (up to 370marms), is set by means of an external resistor (r cl ) connected between cl and pavss. the resistor converts the current sensed into a voltage signal. the peak current sensing block works as the output voltage sensing block: - if v(cl) < ccl th - ccl hyst voltage control loop acting - if ccl th - ccl hyst < v(cl) < ccl th + ccl hyst no gain change - if v(cl) > ccl th + clc hyst the next gain level is decreased by 1 step figure 15 shows the typical connection of current anvoltage control loops. figure 15. voltage and current feedback external interconnection example voltage control loop formula r1 alc voltage loop current loop vsense cl atop/ato vout pk vcl hyst vcl th 1.865v (typ) ccl hyst ccl th av ss avss 5.6nf r2 rcl 100pf vout d03in1421 vout pk r 1 r 2 + r 2 -------------------- vcl th vcl hyst () ?

& reg_data line =?0?, timeout protection is suddendly en- abled and st7538 must be configured in data reception after the reset event before starting a new data transmission. time out time is programmable using control register bits 7 and 8 (table 11). figure 21. time-out timing and unlock sequence 4.3 reset & watchdog rsto output is a reset generator for the application circuitry. during the st7538 startup sequence is forced low. rsto becomes high after a t rsto delay from the end of oscillator startup sequence. inside st7538 is also embedded a watchdog function. the watchdog function is used to detect the occur- rence of a software fault of the host controller. the watchdog circuitry generates an internal and external reset (rsto low for t rsto time) on expiry of the internal watchdog timer. the watchdog timer reset can be achieved applying a negative pulse on wd pin fig 22. figure 22. reset and watchdog timing t out t off t offd rxtx tout d03in1409 t wo t rsto t wd t wm t rsto rsto wd d03in1410 obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) st7538 24/30 4.4 zero crossing detection the mains voltage zero crossing can be detected, through a proper connection of zcin to the mains. zcin comparator has a threshold fixed at sgnd. zcout is a ttl output forced high after a positive zero-crossing transition, and low after a negative one. setting the bit 11 inside the control register to ?1? the transmission is automatically synchronized to the mains positive zero-crossing transition. this function is achieved turning on the pli when rx/tx is low and delaying the clr/t first transition until the first zero-crossing event. the automatic synchronization procedure can work only if the synchronous interface is programmed. if asynchronous interface is in use the zero crossing synchronization can be achieved managing the zcout line. figure 23. synchronous zero-crossing transmission 4.5 output clock mclk is the master clock output. the clock frequency sourced can be programed through the control reg- ister to be a ratio of the crystal oscillator frequency (fosc, fosc/2 fosc/4). the transition between one fre- quency and another is done only at the end of the ongoing cycle. 4.6 reg ok regok allows to detect an accidental corruption of the control register content. if a register content cor- ruption is detected, regok goes to "1". regok function is disabled during a control register writing ses- sion. 4.7 under voltage lock out the uvlo function turns off the device if the pavdd voltage falls under 4v. hysteresis is 340mv typically. 4.8 thermal shutdown the st7538 is provided of a thermal protection which turn off the pli when the junction temperature ex- ceeds 170c 10% . hysteresis is around 30c. when shutdown threshold is overcome, pli interface is switched off. thermal shutdown event is notified to the host controller using timeout line. when timeout line is high, st7538 junction temperature exceed the shutdown threshold (not lached). t zcin rxtx clr/t txd zcout zc del d03in1423 obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) 25/30 st7538 4.9 5v voltage regulator and power good function st7538 has an embedded 5v linear regulator externally available to supply the application circuitry. the linear regulator has a very low quiescent current (50 a) and a current capability of 100ma. the reg- ulator is protected against short circuitry events. when the regulator voltage is above the power good threshold (v pg) , power good line is forced high, while is forced low at startup and when vdc falls below v pg - v pghys voltage. figure 24. power good function 4.10 power-up procedure to ensure st7538 proper power-up sequence, pavcc, avss and dvss supply has to fulfil the following rules: 1) pavcc rising slope must not exceed 100v/ms. 2) when dvdd and avdd are below 5v (externally supplied): 100mv < pavcc-avdd , pavcc-dvdd < 1.2v. when avdd and dvdd supply are connected to vdc, with load < 100ma and filtering capacitor on vdc < 100uf, the second rule can be ignored. figure 25. power-up sequence pg ok 250mv time time v dc 4.5v pg d03in1411 voltage time 5v 100v/ms pavcc-avdd pavcc-dvdd pav c c dvdd, avdd d03in1424 obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) st7538 26/30 figure 26. application schematic example with coupling tranformer. st7538 pg regok wd rxd rx/tx reg/data txd clr/t cd/pd bu tout mclk rsto zcout atop2 pavcc 21 22 xin 27 xout 26 zcin 16 vsense cl atop1 19 23 ato 24 29 13 test3 30 test2 35 test1 rai 32 rxfo 31 10 dvdd 28 avdd 33 vdc c_plus 38 c_minus 37 c_out 40 14 36 42 1 3 4 5 7 8 9 11 12 15 43 2 dvss gnd 6 17 n.c. dvss 18 20 pavss sgnd 25 34 n.c. 39 n.c. gnd 41 44 n.c. host controller ac line ac/dc converter zero crossing transmission synchronization no external components for power line driver single suppy 5v supply for host controller clock & reset for host controller 5 lines serial interface voltage regulation & current protection load r1 r2 rcl c1 c2 d03in1412a mains coupling reference circuit obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) obsolete product(s) - obsolete product(s) 27/30 st7538 5 package information in order to meet environmental requirements, st offers these devices in ecopack?
