CG3010 System-on-Chip Solution The CG3010 chipset is a system-on-chip solution for high-speed home networking over existing coax and/or telephone wires. Implementing the ITU G.9954 standard and the HomePNA V3.1 standard, and based on CopperGate’s CopperStream™ technology, the chipset boosts transmission of video, audio, voice and data over legacy wires at rates of up to 128 Mbps. The chipset is capable of guaranteeing the required Quality of Service (QoS) for multiple simultaneous streams of multimedia data.

Target applications for CopperGate chipsets include: residential gateways (RGs), set-top boxes (STBs), network peripherals, home entertainment equipment, and MDU/MTU access systems.

The CG3010 chipset was designed with a large variety of interfaces to allow glue-less integration into network adapters, set-top-boxes, residential gateways or other embedded applications. The chipset supports both Master and End Point applications and allows the designer to choose the optimal interface for specific system requirements.

The CG3010 chipset is scalable, supporting simple devices without requiring external memory, as well as complex systems where it can share resources with an external host.

Management/Diagnostic support is provided using host-based diagnostics application software that communicates with the CG3010 firmware over the standard host interface bus. 

The CG3010 chipset comprises the CG3011 MAC + PHY digital engine and the CG3012 analog front end.

CG3010 Development Kit

CG3010-based Ethernet to HomePNA V3.1 Evaluation Board (CG3010ECP)
The Ethernet to HomePNA V3.1 evaluation board implements a three port network switch with two 10/100 Base-T Ethernet ports and one HomePNA V3.1 port.
This board can be used for testing the performance of the technology as well as reference for similar customer designs (i.e. Golden Node).

Reference Design Database (CG3010ECP-DB)
CopperGate offers the complete design files of the CG3010ECP including schematics, bill of material (BOM), layout schematics and assembly files.

SDK (CG3010CDK)
The S/W development kit enables building remote management and diagnostic tools. It can also be used for building offline production tools. The S/W development kit includes a development library, sample applications and documentation.
