to identify the device class (Class 0 specifies 0 mA to
4 mA). This is again accomplished by resistor R51.
Simple, low-cost, discrete PoE interface circuit
Low cost bipolar pass-switch: 87% efficient (Figure 5)
MOSFET pass-switch: 97% efficient (Figures 2 and 5)
Fully compliant with IEEE 802.3af
Bipolar Transistor Pass-Switch
In the third phase, the bipolar pass-switch (Q51 in Figure 1)
connects the input voltage to the power supply at voltages
above approximately 30 VDC (28 V + VR52). Zener diode
VR51 conducts, driving current through resistor R52 to
the base of Q51. Resistor R53 prevents turn-on under other
conditions. Once the power supply has started, components
D51, D52, C51 and R54 enhance the base-current drive by
coupling power from the power supply bias winding.
Operation
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is becoming widely adopted for
networking and (VoIP) telecom applications. A typical PD
solution is shown in Figure 1, having a PoE interface circuit
and a DPA-Switch DC-DC converter block (see DI-69 for full
details of operation of the DC-DC converter).
MOSFET Pass-Switch
The PoE specification requires the PD to provide three functions:
detection, classification, pass-switch connection.
An alternative MOSFET-based third phase solution
(Figure 2) connects the input to the power supply at input
voltages above approximately 30 VDC (28 V + VG(Q51)).
Resistor R53 prevents turn-on under other conditions and
Zener diode VR52 limits the Q51 gate-source voltage when the
input voltage is high (>42 VDC). In the last phase of start up,
When an input voltage is first applied to the PD, it must present
the correct detection impedance in the voltage range of 2.5 VDC
to 10 VDC. This impedance is provided by R51.
The second (classification) phase occurs at input voltages
14.5 VDC to 20.5 VDC. The PD must draw a specified current

Bipolar Transistor Pass-Switch:
• Choose Q51 bipolar with sufficient current and voltage
capability and highest available DC-current gain.
• Choose R52 to give sufficient base-drive at turn-on, to
allow the DC-DC converter to start.
• Choose R54 (typically 10-20 Ω) to limit the capacitively
coupled current spike during switching.

Key Design Points
MOSFET Pass-Switch:
• Choose R52 to limit power dissipation in VR51 and VR52.
• Choose R53 to ensure MOSFET turn-off below 28 VDC.
• Choose VR51 to block Q51 turn-on below <28 VDC.
• Higher values of R52, R53 and VR51 will limit dissipation.
• Choose VR52 to limit the maximum gate to source voltage
on Q51 (typically 15 VDC is a good choice).
Current (mA)
the under-voltage threshold for the DPA-Switch is programed
by components R1, R21, R22, R23 and Q20, setting the turn-on
voltage to 42 VDC and turn-off voltage to 34 VDC.
