GENERAL
The QDC10 is a VLSI device for Data communication over noisy DC power lines to eliminate complex
wiring and provide quick and simple installation. If required, the device can operate on a single wire bus.
It is a complete solution to multiplex commands and data between wide range of modules in a vehicle
such as Climate Control and its Temperature sensors, Security detectors and Immobilizers, Car Audio
components, Remote operation buttons on the steering wheel, etc.
The QDC10 is based on a patented DC-BUS™ technology. It contains a Modem, Channel
Coder/decoder (ECC), Communication Controller to overcome the hostile environment on vehicle
battery lines.

OVERVIEW
2.1 DC-BUS™ System
A QDC10 network serves up to 16 devices, each of them can broadcast data messages to other devices
on the bus. The device can be interfaced and controlled by a Host microprocessor via a serial
synchronous communication. Simple applications, such as switches can be implemented directly on the
device eliminating the need of a host. The DC-BUS is a Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) Collision
detection / resolving system. It uses a dedicated frequency for Data and Control transfer between
