www.DataSheet4U.com 19-3945; Rev 0; 1/06 IEEE 802.3af PD Interface and PWM Controllers with Integrated Power MOSFETs General Description The MAX5953A/MAX5953B/MAX5953C/MAX5953D integrate a complete power IC solution for Powered Devices (PD) in a Power-Over-Ethernet (PoE) system, in compliance with the IEEE 802.3af standard. The MAX5953A/MAX5953B/MAX5953C/MAX5953D provide the PD with a detection signature, a classification signature, and an integrated isolation switch with programmable inrush current control. These devices also integrate a voltage-mode PWM controller with two power MOSFETs connected in a two-switch voltageclamped DC-DC converter configuration. An integrated MOSFET provides PD isolation during detection and classification. All devices guarantee a leakage current offset of less than 10µA during the detection phase. A programmable current limit prevents high inrush current during power-on. The devices feature power-mode undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with wide hysteresis and long deglitch time to compensate for twisted-pair-cable resistive drop and to assure glitch-free transition between detection, classification, and power-on/-off phases. The MAX5953A/MAX5953C have an adjustable UVLO threshold with the default value compliant to the 802.3af standard, while the MAX5953B/MAX5953D have a lower and fixed UVLO threshold compatible with some legacy pre-802.3af power-sourcing equipment (PSE) devices. The DC-DC converters are operable in either forward or flyback configu...
