10.1 Layout Guidelines

The layout of the PoE front end should follow power and EMI/ESD best practice guidelines. A basic set of recommendations include:

  • Parts placement must be driven by power flow in a point-to-point manner; RJ-45, Ethernet transformer, diode bridges, TVS and 0.1-μF capacitor, and TPS2372.
  • All leads should be as short as possible with wide power traces and paired signal and return.
  • There should not be any crossovers of signals from one part of the flow to another.
  • Spacing consistent with safety standards like IEC60950 must be observed between the 48-V input voltage rails and between the input and an isolated converter output.
  • The TPS2372 should be located over split, local ground planes referenced to VSS for the PoE input and to RTN for the switched output.
  • Large copper fills and traces should be used on SMT power-dissipating devices, and wide traces or overlay copper fills should be used in the power path.
  • Nine vias are recommended on the Exposed Thermal Pad of the TPS2372. These should connect to all layers of a copper plane on the PCB. Ensure 80% printed solder coverage by area.
