DESCRIPTION
The TPS23851 is a quad-power controller engineered
to insert power onto Ethernet cable according to IEEE
Std 802.3at-2009 (or 802.3at) for Power Sourcing
Equipment (PSE). The PSE controller can detect
Powered devices (PDs) that have a valid signature,
determine the power requirements of the devices
according to the classification, and apply power to the
devices, limited per 802.3at. Based on an industry
standard register set, the PSE controller is software
compatible with other PSE controllers for basic
functionality
Beyond the industry standard operation, the
TPS23851 operates with enhanced features. Port
current trip point can be set to all classification
thresholds of IEEE Std 802.3-2005 (or 802.3af) and
can be programmed up to more than 720 mA when
used with a LLDP classification stack, complying with
802.3at. The TPS23851 supports AC and DC
disconnection with a precision on-chip, 110-Hz
oscillator for AC waveform generation. The PSE also
contains four 14-bit A/D converters that constantly
monitor voltage and current on each port. This
information is available on the I2C bus for power
management. The unique converter integrating
topology used in the TPS23851 provides inherent
filtering for a robust solution.
