T2P and APDO Indicators

The state of T2P is used to provide information relative to the allocated power. Table 8-2 lists T2P state corresponding to various combinations of PSE Type, PD Class and allocated power. The allocated power is determined by the number of classification cycles having been received. The PSE may also allocate a lower power than what the PD is requesting, in which case there is power demotion. The APDO output can also be used to indicate the presence of auxiliary power adapter via the APD input.

Table 8-2 T2P and Allocated Power Truth Table, with APD Low
PSE TYPEPD CLASSNUMBER OF CLASS CYCLESPSE ALLOCATED POWER AT PD (W)T2P(1)
1-40112.95HIGH
1-4113.84HIGH
1-4216.49HIGH
1-43112.95HIGH
24225.5LOW
3-442,325.5LOW
If APD is high, both T2P and APDO outputs become low.

During startup, the T2P output is enabled only once the DC-DC controller has reached steady-state, the soft-start having been completed. This output will return to a high-impedance state in any of the following cases:

  • DC-DC controller is back to soft-start mode
  • DC-DC controller transitions to soft-stop mode
  • DC-DC controller shuts off due to reasons including VVCC falling below VCUVLO_F, or the PoE hotswap is in inrush limit while APD is low
  • The device enters thermal shutdown

Note that in all these cases, as long as VDD-to-VSS voltage remains above the mark reset threshold, the internal logic state of this signal is remembered such that this output will be activated accordingly after the soft-start has completed. This circuit resets when the VDD-to-VSS voltage drops below the mark reset threshold. The T2P can be left unconnected if not used.
