Pin Functions

PIN I/O DESCRIPTION
NAME NO.
VDD 1 I Connect to positive PoE input power rail. Bypass with 0.1 µF to VSS.
DEN 2 I/O Connect a 24.9 kΩ resistor from DEN to VDD to provide the PoE detection signature. Pull DEN to VSS to disable the pass MOSFET during powered operation.
CLSA 3 O Connect a resistor from CLSA to VSS to program the first classification current.
VSS 4, 5 Connect to negative power rail derived from PoE source.
CLSB 6 O Connect a resistor from CLSB to VSS to program the second classification current.
REF 7 O Internal 1.5 V voltage reference. Connect a 49.9kΩ_1% resistor from REF to VSS.
AMPS_CTL 8 O Automatic MPS control. Connect a resistor with appropriate power rating (to support the MPS current) from AMPS_CTL to VSS to program the MPS current amplitude. Leave AMPS_CTL open to disable the automatic MPS function.
MPS_DUTY 9 I MPS duty cycle select input, referenced to VSS, internally driven by a precision current source with voltage limited to less than ~5.5V. A resistor connected to VSS determines if the MPS duty cycle selected is either 5.4% (open), 8.1% (~60.4 kΩ) or 12.5% (short).
APD 10 I Auxiliary power detect input. Raise 1.65 V above RTN to disable pass MOSFET, to force TPH active (low) and to force TPL and /BT inactive (open). If not used, connect APD to RTN.
RTN 11, 12 Drain of PoE pass MOSFET. Return line from the load to the controller.
PG 13 O Power Good output. Open-drain, active-high output referenced to RTN.
VC_OUT 14 O VC output. Connect to the low voltage supply pin of the PWM controller. Bypass with a 1 µF to RTN in most applications. If the applications requires operations from a 12 V adapter, a higher capacitance value is needed.
VC_IN 15 I VC input. Connect to auxiliary bias voltage source, usually derived from an auxiliary winding of the power transformer of the converter. Bypass with a 0.1 µF to RTN.
UVLO_SEL 16 I UVLO select, referenced to RTN, internally pulled-up to 5.5 V internal rail. Leave open when the selected PWM has a falling UVLO above 7.25V. Pull UVLO_SEL low if it is between 4.25V and 7.25V.
TPL 17 O PSE allocated power outputs, binary coded. Open-drain, active-low outputs referenced to RTN. TPL becomes open and TPH pulls low if an auxiliary power adapter is detected via the APD input.
TPH 18 O
BT 19 O Indicates that a PSE applying an IEEE802.3bt (Type 3 or 4) mutual identification scheme has been identified. Open-drain, active-low output referenced to RTN. /BT becomes open if an auxiliary power adapter is detected.
NC 20 No connect pin. Leave open.
Pad The exposed thermal pad must be connected to VSS. A large fill area is required to assist in heat dissipation.
