The LTC®4290/LTC4271 chipset is an 8-port power sourcing equipment (PSE) controller designed for use in IEEE
802.3at Type 1 and Type 2 (high power) compliant Power
over Ethernet (PoE) systems. Transformer-isolated communication protocol replaces expensive opto-couplers
and complex isolated 3.3V supply resulting in significant
BOM cost savings. The LTC4290/LTC4271 chipset delivers
lowest-in-industry heat dissipation by utilizing low-RDS(ON)
external MOSFETs and 0.25Ω sense resistors.

Advanced power management features include per-port 12bit current monitoring ADCs, DAC-programmable current
limit, and versatile fast shut-down of preselected ports.
Advanced power management host software is available
under a no-cost license. PD discovery uses a proprietary
dual-mode 4-point detection mechanism ensuring excellent immunity from false PD detection. Midspan PSEs
are supported with 2-event classification and a 2 second
backoff timer. The LTC4290/LTC4271 includes an I2C serial
interface operable up to 1MHz.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. With the exception of (VDD –
DGND), exposure to any Absolute Maximum Rating condition for extended
periods may affect device reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed 140ºC when overtemperature protection is active.
Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating junction
temperature may impair device reliability.
Note 3: All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device
pins are negative.
Note 4: The LTC4290 operates with a negative supply voltage (with respect
to AGND). To avoid confusion, voltages in this data sheet are referred to in
terms of absolute magnitude.
Note 5: tDIS is the same as tMPDO defined by IEEE 802.3
Note 6: The LTC4271 digital interface operates with respect to DGND. All
logic levels are measured with respect to DGND.
Note 7: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.
Note 8: The IEEE 802.3 specification allows a PD to present its
Maintain Power Signature (MPS) on an intermittent basis without being
disconnected. In order to stay powered, the PD must present the MPS for
tMPS within any tMPDO time window.
Note 9: Values Measured at VILD and VIHD
Note 10: If a fault condition occurs during an I2C transaction, the INT pin
will not be pulled down until a stop condition is present on the I2C bus.
Note 11: Load characteristics of the LTC4290 during Mark: 7V < (AGND –
VOUTn) < 10V or IOUT < 50µA.
Note 12: See the LTC4271 Software Programming documentation for
information on serial bus usage and device configuration and status
registers.
Note 13: Do not source or sink current from CAP1 and CAP2.

PIN FUNCTIONS
LTC4290
VEE (Pins 1, 30, 33, 40): Main PoE Supply Input. Connect to a –45V to –57V supply, relative to AGND. Voltage
depends on PSE type (Type 1 or Type 2).
GATEn (Pins 2, 4, 7, 9, 22, 24, 27, 29): Port n Gate Drive.
GATEn should be connected to the gate of the external
MOSFET for port n. When the MOSFET is turned on, the
gate voltage is driven to 12V (typ) above VEE. During a
current limit condition, the voltage at GATEn will be reduced to maintain constant current through the external
MOSFET. If the fault timer expires, GATEn is pulled down,
turning the MOSFET off and recording a port fault event.
If the port is unused, float the GATEn pin.
OUTn (Pins 3, 5, 8, 10, 21, 23, 26, 28): Port n Output
Voltage Monitor. OUTn should be connected to the output
port. A current limit foldback circuit limits the power dissipation in the external MOSFET by reducing the current
limit threshold when the drain-to-source voltage exceeds
10V. The port n Power Good bit is set when the voltage
from OUTn to VEE drops below 2.4V (typ). A 500k resistor
is connected internally from OUTn to AGND when the port
is idle. If the port is unused, the OUTn pin must be floated.
CAP2 (Pin 6): Analog Internal 4.3V Power Supply Bypass
Capacitor. Connect 0.1µF ceramic cap to VEE.
XIO0 (Pin 11): General Purpose Digital Input Output. Logic
signal between VEE and VEE + 4.3V. Internal pull up.
SENSEn (Pins 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19): Port n
Current Sense Input. SENSEn monitors the external MOSFET current via a 0.5Ω or 0.25Ω sense resistor between
SENSEn and VEE. Whenever the voltage across the sense
resistor exceeds the overcurrent detection threshold VCUT,
the current limit fault timer counts up. If the voltage across
the sense resistor reaches the current limit threshold VLIM,
the GATEn pin voltage is lowered to maintain constant current in the external MOSFET. See Applications Information
for further details. If the port is unused, the SENSEn pin
must be tied to VEE.
AGND (Pin 25): Analog Ground. Connect AGND to the
return for the VEE supply.
DNA (Pin 36): Data Transceiver Negative Input Output
(Analog). Connect to DND through a data transformer.
DPA (Pin 37): Data Transceiver Positive Input Output
(Analog). Connect to DPD through a data transformer.
CNA (Pin 38): Clock Transceiver Negative Input Output
(Analog). Connect to CND through a data transformer.
CPA (Pin 39): Clock Transceiver Positive Input Output
(Analog). Connect to CPD through a data transformer.
VSSK (Exposed Pad Pin 41): Kelvin Sense to VEE. Connect
to sense resistor common node. Do not connect directly
to VEE plane. See Layout Guide.
Common Pins
NC, DNC (LTC4271 Pins 7,13; LTC4290 Pins 31, 32, 34,
35): All pins identified with “NC” or “DNC” must be left
unconnected.
LTC4271
AD0 (Pin 1): Address Bit 0. Tie the address pins high or low
to set the starting I2C serial address to which the LTC4271
responds. The chip will respond to this address plus the
next two incremental addresses. The base address of the
first four ports will be (A610A3A2A1A0)b. The second and
third groups of four ports will respond at the next two
logical addresses. Internally pulled up to VDD.
AD1 (Pin 2): Address Bit 1. See AD0.
AD2 (Pin 3): Address Bit 2. See AD0.
AD3 (Pin 4): Address Bit 3. See AD0.
AD6 (Pin 5): Address Bit 6. See AD0.
MID (Pin 6): Midspan Mode Input. When high, the LTC4271
acts as a midspan device. Internally pulled down to DGND.
CPD (Pin 8): Clock Transceiver Positive Input Output
(Digital). Connect to CPA through a data transformer.
XIO1 (Pin 20): General Purpose Digital Input Output. Logic
signal between VEE and VEE + 4.3V. Internal pull up.

PIN FUNCTIONS
CND (Pin 9): Clock Transceiver Negative Input Output
(Digital). Connect to CNA through a data transformer.
DPD (Pin 10): Data Transceiver Positive Input Output
(Digital). Connect to DPA through a data transformer.
DND (Pin 11): Data Transceiver Negative Input Output
(Digital). Connect to DNA through a data transformer.
VDD33 (Pins 12, 20): VDD IO Power Supply. Connect to
a 3.3V power supply relative to DGND. VDD33 must be
bypassed to DGND near the LTC4271 with at least a 0.1μF
capacitor.
RESET (Pin 14): Reset Input, Active Low. When the RESET
pin is low, the LTC4290/LTC4271 is held inactive with all
ports off and all internal registers reset to their power-up
states. When RESET is pulled high, the LTC4271 begins
normal operation. RESET can be connected to an external capacitor or RC network to provide a power turn-on
delay. Internal filtering of the RESET pin prevents glitches
less than 1μs wide from resetting the LTC4290/LTC4271.
Internally pulled up to VDD.
INT (Pin 15): Interrupt Output, Open Drain. INT will pull low
when any one of several events occur in the LTC4271. It will
return to a high impedance state when bits 6 or 7 are set
in the Reset PB register (1Ah). The INT signal can be used
to generate an interrupt to the host processor, eliminating
the need for continuous software polling. Individual INT
events can be disabled using the INT Mask register (01h).
See LTC4271 Software Programming documentation for
more information. The INT pin is only updated between
I2C transactions.
SDAOUT (Pin 16): Serial Data Output, Open Drain Data
Output for the I2C Serial Interface Bus. The LTC4271 uses
two pins to implement the bidirectional SDA function to
simplify optoisolation of the I2C bus. To implement a standard bidirectional SDA pin, tie SDAOUT and SDAIN together.
See Applications Information for more information.
SDAIN (Pin 17): Serial Data Input. High impedance data
input for the I2C serial interface bus. The LTC4271 uses two
pins to implement the bidirectional SDA function to simplify
optoisolation of the I2C bus. To implement a standard
bidirectional SDA pin, tie SDAOUT and SDAIN together.
See Applications Information for more information.
SCL (Pin 18): Serial Clock Input. High impedance clock
input for the I2C serial interface bus. The SCL pin should
be connected directly to the I2C SCL bus line. SCL must
be tied high if the I2C serial interface bus is not used.
CAP1 (Pin 19): Core Power Supply Bypass Capacitor. Connect a 1µF Bypass capacitance to DGND for the internal
1.8V regulator. Do not use other capacitor values.
AUTO (Pin 21): AUTO Pin Mode Input. AUTO pin mode
allows the LTC4271 to detect and power up a PD even if
there is no host controller present on the I2C bus. The
AUTO pin determines the state of the internal registers
when the LTC4271 is reset or comes out of VDD UVLO
(see LTC4271 Software Programming documentation). The
states of these register bits can subsequently be changed
via the I2C interface. Internally pulled down to DGND. Must
be tied locally to either VDD or DGND.
GP1 (Pin 22): General Purpose Digital Input Output for
customer applications. Referenced to DGND.
GP0 (Pin 23): General Purpose Digital Input Output for
customer applications. Referenced to DGND.
MSD (Pin 24): Maskable Shutdown Input. Active low. When
pulled low, all ports that have their corresponding mask
bit set in the mconfig register (17h) will be reset. Internal
filtering of the MSD pin prevents glitches less than 1μs
wide from resetting ports. The MSD Pin Mode register can
configure the MSD pin polarity. Internally pulled up to VDD.
DGND (Exposed Pad Pin 25): Digital Ground. DGND should
be connected to the return from the VDD supply.

LTC4290/LTC4271
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
OVERVIEW
LTC4290/LTC4271 Product Overview
Power over Ethernet, or PoE, is a standard protocol for
sending DC power over copper Ethernet data wiring. The
IEEE group that administers the 802.3 Ethernet data standards added PoE powering capability in 2003. This original
PoE spec, known as 802.3af, allowed for 48V DC power at
up to 13W. This initial specification was widely popular, but
13W was not adequate for some requirements. In 2009,
the IEEE released a new standard, known as 802.3at or
PoE+, increasing the voltage and current requirements to
provide 25W of power.
The LTC4290/LTC4271 is a fourth generation 8-port PSE
controller that implements eight PSE ports in either an
endpoint or midspan design. Virtually all necessary circuitry
is included to implement an IEEE 802.3at compliant PSE
design, requiring only an external power MOSFET and sense
resistor per channel; these minimize power loss compared
to alternative designs with onboard MOSFETs and increase
system reliability in the event a single channel fails.
The IEEE standard also defines PoE terminology. A device
that provides power to the network is known as a PSE, or
power sourcing equipment, while a device that draws power
from the network is known as a PD, or powered device.
PSEs come in two types: Endpoints (typically network
switches or routers), which provide data and power; and
Midspans, which provide power but pass through data.
Midspans are typically used to add PoE capability to existing
non-PoE networks. PDs are typically IP phones, wireless
access points, security cameras, and similar devices.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
PoE BASICS
Common Ethernet data connections consist of two or four
twisted pairs of copper wire (commonly known as CAT-5
cable), transformer-coupled at each end to avoid ground
loops. PoE systems take advantage of this coupling arrangement by applying voltage between the center-taps
of the data transformers to transmit power from the PSE
to the PD without affecting data transmission. Figure 10
shows a high level PoE system schematic.
To avoid damaging legacy data equipment that does not
expect to see DC voltage, the PoE spec defines a protocol
that determines when the PSE may apply and remove
power. Valid PDs are required to have a specific 25k common mode resistance at their input. When such a PD is
connected to the cable, the PSE detects this signature
resistance and turns on the power. When the PD is later
disconnected, the PSE senses the open circuit and turns
power off. The PSE also turns off power in the event of a
current fault or short circuit.
When a PD is detected, the PSE optionally looks for a
classification signature that tells the PSE the maximum
power the PD will draw. The PSE can use this information
to allocate power among several ports, to police the current
consumption of the PD, or to reject a PD that will draw more
power than the PSE has available. The classification step
is optional; if a PSE chooses not to classify a PD, it must
assume that the PD is a 13W (full 802.3af power) device.
New in 802.3at
The newer 802.3at standard supersedes 802.3af and brings
several new features:
• A PD may draw as much as 25.5W. Such PDs (and the
PSEs that support them) are known as Type 2. Older
13W 802.3af equipment is classified as Type 1. Type 1
PDs will work with all PSEs; Type 2 PDs may require
Type 2 PSEs to work properly. The LTC4290/LTC4271
is designed to work in both Type 1 and Type 2 PSE designs, and also supports non-standard configurations
at higher power levels.
• The Classification protocol is expanded to allow Type 2
PSEs to detect Type 2 PDs, and to allow Type 2 PDs to
determine if they are connected to a Type 2 PSE. Two
versions of the new Classification protocol are available: an expanded version of the 802.3af Class Pulse
protocol, and an alternate method integrated with the
existing LLDP protocol (using the Ethernet data path).
The LTC4290/LTC4271 fully supports the new Class
Pulse protocol and is also compatible with the LLDP
protocol (which is implemented in the data communications layer, not in the PoE circuitry).
• Fault protection current levels and timing are adjusted
to reduce peak power in the MOSFET during a fault; this
allows the new 25.5W power levels to be reached using
the same MOSFETs as older 13W designs.
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY
The LTC4290/LTC4271 chipset is designed to be backward
compatible with the LTC4266, operating in Type 2 mode,
without software changes; only minor layout changes
are required to implement a fully compliant IEEE 802.3at
design.
Some LTC4266 registers have been obsoleted in the
LTC4290/LTC4271 chipset. The obsoleted registers are not
required for 802.3at compliant PSE operation. For more
details about software differences between the LTC4266
and LTC4290/LTC4271, refer to the LTC4271 Software
Programming document.
Operation with high power mode disabled is obsoleted in
the LTC4290/LTC4271 chipset. All operations previously
available in low power mode are fully implemented as a
subset of the high power mode capabilities.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
OPERATING MODES
The LTC4290/LTC4271 includes eight independent ports,
each of which can operate in one of four modes: manual,
semi-auto, AUTO pin, or shutdown.

In manual mode, the port waits for instructions from the
host system before taking any action. It runs a single
detection or classification cycle when commanded to by
the host, and reports the result in its Port Status register.
The host system can command the port to turn on or off
the power at any time.
In semi-auto mode, the port repeatedly attempts to detect
and classify any PD attached to it. It reports the status of
these attempts back to the host, and waits for a command
from the host before turning on power to the port. The
host must enable detection (and optionally classification)
for the port before detection will start.
AUTO pin mode operates the same as semi-auto mode
except it will automatically turn on the power to the port if
detection is successful. AUTO pin mode will autonomously
set the ICUT and ILIM values based on the class result. This
operational mode is only valid if the AUTO pin is high at
reset or power-up and remains high during operation.
In shutdown mode, the port is disabled and will not detect
or power a PD.
Regardless of which mode it is in, the LTC4290/LTC4271
will remove power automatically from any port that generates a current limit fault. It will also automatically remove
power from any port that generates a disconnect event if
disconnect detection is enabled. The host controller may
also command the port to remove power at any time.
Reset and the AUTO/MID Pins
The initial LTC4290/LTC4271 configuration depends on
the state of the AUTO and MID pins during reset. Reset
occurs at power-up, or whenever the RESET pin is pulled
low or the global Reset All bit is set. Changing the state of
AUTO or MID after power-up will not properly change the
port behavior of the LTC4290/LTC4271 until a reset occurs.
Although typically used with a host controller, the LTC4290/
LTC4271 can also be used in a standalone mode with no
connection to the serial interface. If there is no host present, the AUTO pin must be tied high so that, at reset, all
ports will be configured to operate automatically. Each port
will detect and classify repeatedly until a PD is discovered,
set ICUT and ILIM according to the classification results,
apply power to valid PDs, and remove power when a PD
is disconnected.
Table 2 shows the ICUT and ILIM values that will be automatically set in standalone (AUTO pin) mode, based on
the discovered class.

The automatic setting of ICUT and ILIM values only occurs
if the LTC4290/LTC4271 is reset with the AUTO pin high.
If the standalone application is a midspan, the MID pin must
be tied high to enable correct midspan detection timing.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
DETECTION
Detection Overview
To avoid damaging network devices that were not designed
to tolerate DC voltage, a PSE must determine whether the
connected device is a real PD before applying power. The
IEEE specification requires that a valid PD have a commonmode resistance of 25k ±5% at any port voltage below 10V.
The PSE must accept resistances that fall between 19k and
26.5k, and it must reject resistances above 33k or below
15k (shaded regions in Figure 11). The PSE may choose to
accept or reject resistances in the undefined areas between
the must-accept and must-reject ranges. In particular, the
PSE must reject standard computer network ports, many
of which have 150Ω common-mode termination resistors
that will be damaged if power is applied to them (the black
region at the left of Figure 11).

ing currents are measured and subtracted. Both methods
must report valid resistances for the port to report a valid
detection. PD signature resistances between 17k and 29k
(typically) are detected as valid and reported as Detect
Good in the corresponding Port Status register. Values
outside this range, including open and short circuits, are
also reported. If the port measures less than 1V at the
first forced-current test, the detection cycle will abort and
Short Circuit will be reported. Table 3 shows the possible

4-Point Detection
The LTC4290/LTC4271 uses a 4-point detection method to
discover PDs. False-positive detections are minimized by
checking for signature resistance with both forced-current
and forced-voltage measurements.
Initially, two test currents are forced onto the port (via the
OUTn pin) and the resulting voltages are measured. The
detection circuitry subtracts the two V-I points to determine
the resistive slope while removing offset caused by series
diodes or leakage at the port (see Figure 12). If the forcedcurrent detection yields a valid signature resistance, two
test voltages are then forced onto the port and the result-

More on Operating Modes
Detection of Legacy PDs
The port’s operating mode determines when the LTC4290/
LTC4271 runs a detection cycle. In manual mode, the port
will idle until the host orders a detect cycle. It will then
run detection, report the results, and return to idle to wait
for another command.
Proprietary PDs that predate the original IEEE 802.3af standard are commonly referred to today as legacy devices. One
type of legacy PD uses a large common mode capacitance
(>10μF) as the detection signature. Note that PDs in this
range of capacitance are defined as invalid, so a PSE that
detects legacy PDs is technically noncompliant with the
IEEE spec. The LTC4290/LTC4271 can be configured to
detect this type of legacy PD. Legacy detection is disabled
by default, but can be manually enabled on a per-port basis.
When enabled, the port will report Detect Good when it
sees either a valid IEEE PD or a high-capacitance legacy
PD. With legacy mode disabled, only valid IEEE PDs will
be recognized.
In semi-auto mode, the LTC4290/LTC4271 autonomously
polls a port for PDs, but it will not apply power until commanded to do so by the host. The Port Status register is
updated at the end of each detection cycle.
If a valid signature resistance is detected and classification
is enabled, the port will classify the PD and report that
result as well. The port will then wait for at least 100ms (or
2 seconds if midspan mode is enabled), and will repeat the
detection cycle to ensure that the data in the Port Status
register is up-to-date.
If the port is in semi-auto mode and high power operation is enabled, the port will not turn on in response to
a power-on command unless the current detect result is
detect good. Any other detect result will generate a tSTART
fault if a power-on command is received. In high power
mode the port must be placed in manual mode to force a
port on regardless of detect outcome.
Behavior in AUTO pin mode is similar to semi-auto; however,
after detect good is reported and the port is classified (if
classification is enabled), it is automatically powered on
without further intervention. In standalone (AUTO pin)
mode, the ICUT and ILIM thresholds are automatically set;
see the Reset and the AUTO/MID Pins section for more
information.
The signature detection circuitry is disabled when the port
is initially powered up with the AUTO pin low, in shutdown
mode, or when the corresponding Detect Enable bit is
cleared.
CLASSIFICATION
802.3af Classification
A PD may optionally present a classification signature to
the PSE to indicate the maximum power it will draw while
operating. The IEEE specification defines this signature
as a constant current draw when the PSE port voltage is
in the VCLASS range (between 15.5V and 20.5V), with the
current level indicating one of 5 possible PD classes. Figure
13 shows a typical PD load line, starting with the slope of
the 25k signature resistor below 10V, then transitioning to
the classification signature current (in this case, Class 3)
in the VCLASS range. Table 4 shows the possible classification values.

LTC4290/LTC4271
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
If classification is enabled, the port will classify the PD
immediately after a successful detection cycle in semi-auto
or AUTO pin modes, or when commanded to in manual
mode. It measures the PD classification signature by applying 18V for 12ms (both values typical) to the port via
the OUTn pin and measuring the resulting current; it then
reports the discovered class in the Port Status register.
If the LTC4290/LTC4271 is in AUTO pin mode, it will additionally use the classification result to set the ICUT and
ILIM thresholds. See the Reset and the AUTO/MID Pin
section for more information.
The classification circuitry is disabled when the port is
initially powered up with the AUTO pin low, in shutdown
mode, or when the corresponding Class Enable bit is
cleared.

The second 802.3at classification method, known as
2-event classification or ping-pong, is supported by
the LTC4290/LTC4271. A Type 2 PD that is requesting
more than 13W will indicate Class 4 during normal
802.3af classification. If the LTC4290/LTC4271 sees
Class 4, it forces the port to a specified lower voltage
(called the mark voltage, typically 9V), pauses briefly, and
then re-runs classification to verify the Class 4 reading
(Figure 1). It also sets a bit in the High Power Status register
to indicate that it ran the second classification cycle. The
second cycle alerts the PD that it is connected to a Type
2 PSE which can supply Type 2 power levels.
2-event ping-pong classification is enabled by setting a bit
in the port’s High Power Mode register. Note that a pingpong enabled port only runs the second classification cycle
when it detects a Class 4 device; if the first cycle returns
Class 0 to 3, the port determines it is connected to a Type 1
PD and does not run the second classification cycle.

path. LLDP classification requires the PSE to power the
PD as a standard 802.3af (Type 1) device. It then waits for
the host to perform LLDP communication with the PD and
update the PSE port data. The LTC4290/LTC4271 supports
changing the ILIM and ICUT levels on the fly, allowing the
host to complete LLDP classification.
429071 F13
Figure 13. PD Classification
802.3at 2-Event Classification
The 802.3at specification defines two methods of classifying a Type 2 PD. LTC4290/LTC4271 parts support 802.3at
2-event classification.
One method adds extra fields to the Ethernet LLDP data
protocol; although the LTC4290/LTC4271 is compatible
with this classification method, it cannot perform classification directly since it doesn’t have access to the data
The 802.3at specification defines a Type 2 PD class signature as two consecutive Class 4 results; a Class 4 followed
by a Class 0-3 is not a valid signature. In AUTO pin mode,
the LTC4290/LTC4271 will power a detected PD regardless
of the classification results, with one exception: if the PD
presents an invalid Type 2 signature (Class 4 followed by
Class 0 to 3), the LTC4290/LTC4271 will not provide power
and will restart the detection process. To aid in diagnosis,
the Port Status register will always report the results of the
last class pulse, so an invalid Class 4–Class 2 combination
would report a second class pulse was run in the High
Power Status register (which implies that the first cycle
found class 4), and Class 2 in the Port Status register.

LTC4290/LTC4271
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
POWER CONTROL
The primary function of the LTC4290/LTC4271 is to control the delivery of power to the PSE port. It does this by
controlling the gate drive voltage of an external power
MOSFET while monitoring the current via an external sense
resistor and the output voltage at the OUT pin. This circuitry
serves to couple the raw VEE input supply to the port in
a controlled manner that satisfies the PDs power needs
while minimizing both power dissipation in the MOSFET
and disturbances on the VEE backplane.
Inrush Control
Once the command has been given to turn on a port, the
LTC4290/LTC4271 ramps up the GATE pin of that port’s
external MOSFET in a controlled manner. Under normal
power-up circumstances, the MOSFET gate will rise until
the port current reaches the inrush current limit level
(typically 425mA), at which point the GATE pin will be
servoed to maintain the specified IINRUSH current. During
this inrush period, a timer (tSTART) runs. When output
charging is complete, the port current will fall and the GATE
pin will be allowed to continue rising to fully enhance the
MOSFET and minimize its on-resistance. The final VGS is
nominally 12V. The inrush period is maintained until the
tSTART timer expires. At this time if the inrush current limit
level is still exceeded, the port will be turned back off and
a tSTART fault reported.
Current Limit
Each LTC4290/LTC4271 port includes two current limiting
thresholds (ICUT and ILIM), each with a corresponding
timer (tCUT and tLIM). Setting the ICUT and ILIM thresholds
depends on several factors: the class of the PD, the voltage of the main supply (VEE), the type of PSE (Type 1 or
Type 2), the sense resistor (0.5Ω or 0.25Ω), the SOA of
the MOSFET, and whether or not the system is required
to enforce class current levels.
Per the IEEE specification, the LTC4290/LTC4271 will allow the port current to exceed ICUT for a limited period of
time before removing power from the port, whereas it will
actively control the MOSFET gate drive to keep the port
current below ILIM. The port does not take any action to
limit the current when only the ICUT threshold is exceeded,
but does start the tCUT timer. If the current drops below
the ICUT current threshold before its timer expires, the
tCUT timer counts back down, but at 1/16 the rate that it
counts up. If the tCUT timer reaches 60ms (typical) the
port is turned off and the port tCUT fault is set. This allows
the current limit circuitry to tolerate intermittent overload
signals with duty cycles below about 6%; longer duty cycle
overloads will turn the port off.
The ILIM current limiting circuit is always enabled and actively limiting port current. The tLIM timer is enabled only
when the tLIM Enable bit is set. This allows tLIM to be set
to a shorter value than tCUT to provide more aggressive
MOSFET protection and turn off a port before MOSFET
damage can occur. The tLIM timer starts when the ILIM
threshold is exceeded. When the tLIM timer reaches 12ms
(typical) the port is turned off and the port tLIM fault is
set. When the tLIM Enable bit is disabled tLIM behaviors
are tracked by the tCUT timer, which counts up during both
ILIM and ICUT events.
ICUT is typically set to a lower value than ILIM to allow the
port to tolerate minor faults without current limiting.
Per the IEEE specification, the LTC4290/LTC4271 will automatically set ILIM to 425mA (shown in bold in Table 5)
during inrush at port turn-on, and then switch to the
programmed ILIM setting once inrush has completed. To
maintain IEEE compliance, ILIM should be kept at 425mA
for all Type 1 PDs, and 850mA if a Type 2 PD is detected.
ILIM is automatically reset to 425mA when a port turns off.

ILIM Foldback
The LTC4290/LTC4271 features a two-stage foldback circuit
that reduces the port current if the port voltage falls below
the normal operating voltage. This keeps MOSFET power
dissipation at safe levels for typical 802.3af MOSFETs,
even at extended 802.3at power levels. Current limit and
foldback behavior are programmable on a per-port basis.
Table 5 gives examples of recommended ILIM register
settings.
The LTC4290/LTC4271 will support current levels well
beyond the maximum values in the 802.3at specification.
The shaded areas in Table 5 indicate settings that may
require a larger external MOSFET, additional heat sinking,
or setting tLIM Enable.
MOSFET Fault Detection
LTC4290/LTC4271 PSE ports are designed to tolerate
significant levels of abuse, but in extreme cases it is possible for the external MOSFET to be damaged. A failed
MOSFET may short source to drain, which will make the
port appear to be on when it should be off; this condition
may also cause the sense resistor to fuse open, turning
off the port but causing the LTC4290 SENSE pin to rise
to an abnormally high voltage. A failed MOSFET may also
short from gate to drain, causing the LTC4290 GATE pin
to rise to an abnormally high voltage. The LTC4290 OUT,
SENSE and GATE pins are designed to tolerate up to 80V
faults without damage.
If the LTC4290/LTC4271 sees any of these conditions for
more than 180μs, it disables all port functionality, reduces
the gate drive pull-down current for the port and reports
a FET Bad fault. This is typically a permanent fault, but
the host can attempt to recover by resetting the port, or
by resetting the entire chip if a port reset fails to clear the
fault. If the MOSFET is in fact bad, the fault will quickly
return, and the port will disable itself again. The remaining
ports of the LTC4290/LTC4271 are unaffected.
An open or missing MOSFET will not trigger a FET Bad
fault, but will cause a tSTART fault if the LTC4290/LTC4271
attempts to turn on the port.
Port Current Readback
The LTC4290/LTC4271 measures the current at each port
with an internal A/D converter. Port data is only valid when
the port power is on and reads zero at all other times. The
converter has two modes:
• 100ms mode: Samples are taken continuously and the
measured value is updated every 100ms
• 1s mode: Samples are taken continuously; a moving 1
second average is updated every 100ms

LTC4290/LTC4271
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Port Current Policing
Masked Shutdown
The LTC4290/LTC4271 can augment tCUT current monitoring with a policing function to track the one second current
averages. A port violating the user-specified Port Police
Threshold will be shut off with both a tCUT and Police event
recorded. A port current Police event can be differentiated
from a port tCUT violation by reading both events bits; both
bits are set for a Police violation while only the tCUT bit is
set for tCUT timer violations.
The LTC4290/LTC4271 provides a low latency port shedding feature to quickly reduce the system load when
required. By allowing a pre-determined set of ports to
be turned off, the current on an overloaded main power
supply can be reduced rapidly while keeping high priority
devices powered. Each port can be configured to high or
low priority; all low-priority ports will shut down within
6.5μs after the MSD pin is pulled low, high priority ports
will remain powered. If a port is turned off via MSD, the
corresponding Detection and Classification Enable bits are
cleared, so the port will remain off until the host explicitly
re-enables detection.
Port Voltage Readback
The LTC4290/LTC4271 measures the output voltage at each
port with an internal A/D converter. Port data is only valid
when the port power is on and reads zero at all other times.
Disconnect
The LTC4290/LTC4271 monitors powered ports to ensure
the PD continues to draw the minimum specified current. A
disconnect timer counts up whenever port current is below
7.5mA (typ), indicating that the PD has been disconnected.
If the tDIS timer expires, the port will be turned off and the
disconnect bit in the fault event register will be set. If the
current returns before the tDIS timer runs out, the timer
resets. As long as the PD exceeds the minimum current
level more often than tDIS, it will remain powered.
Although not recommended, the DC disconnect feature
can be disabled by clearing the corresponding enable bits.
Note that this defeats the protection mechanisms built
into the IEEE specification, since a powered port will stay
powered after the PD is removed. If the still-powered port
is subsequently connected to a non-PoE data device, the
device may be damaged.
The LTC4290/LTC4271 does not include AC disconnect
circuitry, but includes AC Disconnect Enable bits to maintain compatibility with the LTC4259A. If the AC Disconnect
Enable bits are set, DC disconnect will be used.
In the LTC4290/LTC4271 chipset the active level of MSD
is register configurable as active high or low. The default
is LTC4266-compatible active low behavior.
VEE Readback
The LTC4290/LTC4271 measures the VEE voltage with an
internal 12-bit A/D converter.
General Purpose IO
Two sets of general purpose IO pins are available in the
LTC4290/LTC4271 chipset. The first set of general purpose
IO are GP1 and GP0. These fully bidirectional IO are 3.3V
CMOS IO on the LTC4271 chip.
The second set of general purpose IO pins are XIO1 and
XIO0. These fully bidirectional IO are 4.3V CMOS IO on
the LTC4290 chip.
Code Download
LTC4271 firmware is field-upgradable by downloading
and executing RAM images. RAM images are volatile
and must be re-downloaded after each VDD power cycle,
but will remain valid during reset and VEE power events.

the host master using the standard SMBus protocols.
Interrupts are signaled to the host via the INT pin. The

Figure 14. Example I2C Bus Addressing
Bus Addressing
The LTC4290/LTC4271’s primary 7-bit serial bus address
is A610A3A2A1A0b, with bit 6 controlled by AD6 and the
lower four bits set by the AD3-AD0 pins; this allows up to
16 LTC4290/LTC4271s, on a single bus. Sixteen LTC4290/
LTC4271 are equivalent to 32 quad PSEs or 128 ports. All
LTC4290/LTC4271s also respond to the broadcast address
0110000b, allowing the host to write the same command
(typically configuration commands) to multiple LTC4290/
LTC4271s in a single transaction. If the LTC4290/LTC4271
is asserting the INT pin, it will also respond to the alert
response address (0001100b) per the SMBus specification.
Interrupts and SMBAlert
Each LTC4290/LTC4271 is logically composed of two quads
of four ports each. Each quad occupies separate, contiguous I2C addresses. The AD6, AD3-0 pins set the address
of the base quad while the second quad is consecutively
numbered. I2C addresses outside of the x10xxxxb range
are considered illegal and will not respond. Each internal
quad is independent of the other quad, with the exception
of writes to the Chip Reset, MSD Inversion and General
Purpose Input Output registers. These registers are global
in nature and will affect all quads.
For information on serial bus usage and device configuration and status, refer to the LTC4271 Software Programming documentation.
Most LTC4290/LTC4271 port events can be configured
to trigger an interrupt, asserting the INT pin and alerting
the host to the event. This removes the need for the host
to poll the LTC4290/LTC4271, minimizing serial bus traffic and conserving host CPU cycles. Multiple LTC4290/
LTC4271s can share a common INT line, with the host
using the SMBAlert protocol (ARA) to determine which
LTC4290/LTC4271 caused an interrupt.
Register Description
ISOLATION REQUIREMENTS
IEEE 802.3 Ethernet specifications require that network
segments (including PoE circuitry) be electrically isolated
from the chassis ground of each network interface device.
However, network segments are not required to be isolated
from each other, provided that the segments are connected
to devices residing within a single building on a single
power distribution system.
429071f
25
LTC4290/LTC4271
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
For simple devices such as small PoE switches, the isolation requirement can be met by using an isolated main
power supply for the entire device. This strategy can be
used if the device has no electrically conducting ports
other than twisted-pair Ethernet. In this case, the SDAIN
and SDAOUT pins can be tied together and will act as a
standard I2C/SMBus SDA pin.
If the device is part of a larger system, contains additional
external non-Ethernet ports, or must be referenced to
protective ground for some other reason, the Power over
Ethernet subsystem must be electrically isolated from the
rest of the system.
The LTC4290/LTC4271 chipset simplifies PSE isolation by
allowing the LTC4271 chip to reside on the non-isolated
side. There it can receive power from the main logic supply and connect directly to the I2C/SMBus bus. Isolation
between the LTC4271 and LTC4290 is implemented using
a proprietary transformer-based communication protocol.
Additional details are provided in the Serial Bus Isolation
section of this data sheet.
EXTERNAL COMPONENT SELECTION
Power Supplies and Bypassing
The LTC4290/LTC4271 requires two supply voltages to
operate. VDD requires 3.3V (nominally) relative to DGND.
VEE requires a negative voltage of between –45V and
–57V for Type 1 PSEs or –51V to –57V for Type 2 PSEs,
relative to AGND.
Digital Power Supply
VDD provides digital power for the LTC4271 processor,
and draws a maximum of 15mA. A ceramic decoupling
cap of at least 0.1μF should be placed from VDD to DGND,
as close as practical to each LTC4271 chip. A 1.8V core
voltage supply is generated internally and requires a 1µF
ceramic decoupling cap between the CAP1 pin and DGND.
In the LTC4290/LTC4271, VDD should be delivered by the
host controller’s non-isolated 3.3V supply. To maintain
required isolation AGND and DGND must not be connected in any way.
Main PoE Power Supply
VEE is the main isolated PoE supply that provides power
to the PDs. Because it supplies a relatively large amount
of power and is subject to significant current transients,
it requires more design care than a simple logic supply.
For minimum IR loss and best system efficiency, set VEE
near maximum amplitude (57V), leaving enough margin
to account for transient over or undershoot, temperature
drift, and the line regulation specifications of the particular
power supply used.
Bypass capacitance between AGND and VEE is very important for reliable operation. If a short circuit occurs at
one of the output ports it can take as long as 1μs for the
LTC4290 to begin regulating the current. During this time
the current is limited only by the small impedances in the
circuit and a high current spike typically occurs, causing a
voltage transient on the VEE supply and possibly causing
the LTC4290/LTC4271 to reset due to a UVLO fault. A 1μF,
100V X7R capacitor placed near the VEE pin along with an
electrolytic bulk capacitor of at least 47µF is recommended
to minimize spurious resets.
Serial Bus Isolation
The LTC4290/LTC4271 chipset uses transformers to isolate
the LTC4271 from the LTC4290. In this case, the SDAIN
and SDAOUT pins can be shorted to each other and tied
directly to the I2C/SMBus bus. The transformers should
be 10BASE-T or 10/100BASE-T with a 1:1 turns ratio. It
is important that the selected transformers do not have
common-mode chokes. These transformers typically
provide 1500V of isolation between the LTC4271 and the
LTC4290. For proper operation strict layout guidelines
must be met.

External MOSFET
Careful selection of the power MOSFET is critical to system
reliability. LTC recommends either Fairchild IRFM120A,
FDT3612, FDMC3612 or Philips PHT6NQ10T for their
proven reliability in Type 1 and Type 2 PSE applications.
SOA curves are not a reliable specification for MOSFET
selection. Contact LTC Applications before using a MOSFET
other than one of these recommended parts.
Sense Resistor
The LTC4290/LTC4271 is designed to use 0.25Ω current
sense resistors to reduce power dissipation. Four commonly available 1Ω resistors (sized according to power
dissipation) can be used in parallel in place of a single
0.25Ω resistor. In order to meet the ICUT and ILIM accuracy
required by the IEEE specification, the sense resistors
should have ±1% tolerance or better, and no more than
±200ppm/°C temperature coefficient. In addition, the sense
resistors must meet strict layout guidelines.
Port Output Cap
Each port requires a 0.22μF cap across its outputs to keep
the LTC4290 stable while in current limit during startup or
overload. Common ceramic capacitors often have significant voltage coefficients; this means the capacitance is
reduced as the applied voltage increases. To minimize this
problem, X7R ceramic capacitors rated for at least 100V
are recommended and must be located close to the PSE.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
ESD/Cable Discharge Protection
LAYOUT GUIDELINES
Ethernet ports can be subject to significant ESD events
when long data cables, each potentially charged to thousands of volts, are plugged into the low impedance of the
RJ45 jack. To protect against damage, each port requires a
pair of clamp diodes; one to AGND and one to VEE (Figure
16). An additional surge suppressor is required for each
LTC4290 chip from VEE to AGND. The diodes at the ports
steer harmful surges into the supply rails, where they are
absorbed by the surge suppressor and the VEE bypass
capacitance. The surge suppressor has the additional
benefit of protecting the LTC4290 from transients on the
VEE supply.
Strict adherence to board layout, parts placement and
routing guidelines is critical for optimal current reading accuracy, IEEE compliance, system robustness, and
thermal dissipation. Refer to the DC1842A Demo Board
as a layout reference. Contact LTC Applications to obtain
a full set of layout guidelines, example layouts and BOMs.
S1B diodes work well as port clamp diodes, and an
SMAJ58A or equivalent is recommended for the VEE surge
suppressor.
