This Linux®-based reference design demonstrates high-reliability, low-latency network communications for substation-automation equipment in smart grid transmission and distribution networks. This reference design supports the Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) specification in the IEC 62439 standard. This unique approach is a lower-cost alternative to FPGAs and provides the flexibility and performance to add features such as IEC 61850 support without additional components.
A fully assembled board has been developed for testing and performance validation only, and is not available for sale.
