High Power/High Efficiency PoE Interface and DC/DC Controller
FEATURES
1
• Powers up to 30 W (input) PDs
• DC/DC Control Optimized for Isolated
Converters
• Supports High-efficiency Topologies
• Complete PoE Interface
• Enhanced Classification per IEEE 802.3at
(Draft) with Status Flag
• Adapter ORing Support
• Programmable Frequency with
Synchronization
• Robust 100 V, 0.5 Ω Hotswap MOSFET
• –40°C to 125°C Junction Temperature Range
• Industry Standard PowerPAD™ TSSOP-20
The TPS23754/6 supports a number of input voltage
ORing options including highest voltage, external
adapter preference, and PoE preference. These
features allow the designer to determine which power
source will carry the load under all conditions.
2
The PoE interface features the new extended
hardware classification necessary for compatibility
with high-power midspan power sourcing equipment
(PSE) per IEEE 802.3at (draft). The detection
signature pin can also be used to force power from
the PoE source off. Classification can be
programmed to any of the defined types with a single
resistor.
The dc/dc controller features two complementary gate
drivers with programmable dead time. This simplifies
design of active-clamp forward converters or
optimized gate drive for highly-efficient flyback
topologies. The second gate driver may be disabled if
desired for single MOSFET topologies. The controller
also features internal softstart, bootstrap startup
source, current-mode compensation, 78% maximum
duty cycle. A programmable and synchronizable
oscillator allows design optimization for efficiency and
eases use of the controller to upgrade existing power
supply designs. Accurate programmable blanking,
with a default period, simplifies the usual
current-sense filter design trade-offs.
APPLICATIONS
IEEE 802.3at (Draft) Compliant Devices
Video and VoIP Telephones
RFID Readers
Multiband Access Points
Security Cameras
DESCRIPTION
From Ethernet
Pairs 1,2
The TPS23754/6 is a combined Power over Ethernet
(PoE) powered device (PD) interface and
current-mode dc/dc controller optimized specifically
for isolated converters. The PoE interface supports
the IEEE 802.3at (draft) standard.
The TPS23754 has a 15 V converter startup while the
TPS23756 has a 9 V converter startup. The
TPS23754-1 replaces the PPD pin with a no-connect
for increased pin spacing.

This device contains circuits to protect its inputs and outputs against damage due to high static voltages or electrostatic fields.
These circuits have been qualified to protect this device against electrostatic discharges (ESD) of up to 2 kV according to
MIL-STD-883C, Method 3015; however, it is advised that precautions be taken to avoid application of any voltage higher than
maximum-rated voltages to these high-impedance circuits. During storage or handling the device leads should be shorted together
or the device should be placed in conductive foam. In a circuit, unused inputs should always be connected to an appropriate
voltage level, preferably either the proper supply or ground. Specific guidelines for handling devices of this type are contained in
the publication Guidelines for Handling Electrostatic-Discharge-Sensitive (ESDS) Devices and Assemblies available from Texas
Instruments.

PIN DESCRIPTION
Refer to Figure 1 for component reference designators (RCS for example), and the Electrical Characteristics table
for values denoted by reference (VCSMAX for example). Electrical Characteristic values take precedence over any
numerical values used in the following sections.
APD
APD forces power to come from an external adapter connected from VDD1 to RTN by opening the hotswap
switch, disabling the CLS output (see PPD pin description), and enabling the T2P output. A resistor divider is
recommended on APD when it is connected to an external adapter. The divider provides ESD protection,
leakage discharge for the adapter ORing diode, and input voltage qualification. Voltage qualification assures the
adapter output voltage is high enough that it can support the PD before the PoE current is cut off.
Select the APD divider resistors per Equation 1 where VADPTR-ON is the desired adapter voltage that enables the
APD function as adapter voltage rises.
RAPD1 = RAPD2 ´
VADPTR_OFF =
(VADPTR_ON
R APD1 + R APD2
R APD2
- VAPDEN
´
(VAPDEN
) VAPDEN
- VAPDH )
(1)
Place the APD pull-down resistor adjacent to the APD pin.
APD should be tied to ARTN when not used.
BLNK
Blanking provides an interval between GATE going high and the current-control comparators on CS actively
monitoring the input. This delay allows the normal turn-on current transient (spike) to subside before the
comparators are active, preventing undesired short duty cycles and premature current limiting.
Connect BLNK to ARTN to obtain the internally set blanking period. Connect a resistor from BLNK to ARTN for a
more accurate, programmable blanking period. The relationship between the desired blanking period and the
programming resistor is defined by Equation 2.
RBLNK (kW ) = tBLNK (ns )
(2)
Place the resistor adjacent to the BLNK pin when it is used.
CLS
A resistor from CLS to VSS programs the classification current per the IEEE standard. The PD power ranges and
corresponding resistor values are listed in Table 1. The power assigned should correspond to the maximum
average power drawn by the PD during operation.
High-power PSEs may perform two classification cycles if Class 4 is presented on the first cycle. The TPS23754
presents the same (resistor programmed) class each cycle per the standard.

CS
The CS (current sense) input for the dc/dc converter should be connected to the high side of the switching
MOSFET’s current sense resistor (RCS). The current-limit threshold, VCSMAX, defines the voltage on CS above
which the GATE ON time will be terminated regardless of the voltage on CTL.
The TPS23754 provides internal slope compensation (150 mV, VSLOPE), an output current for additional slope
compensation, a peak current limiter, and an off-time pull-down to this pin.
Routing between the current-sense resistor and the CS pin should be short to minimize cross-talk from noisy
traces such as the gate drive signal.
CTL
CTL (control) is the voltage-control loop input to the PWM (pulse width modulator). Pulling VCTL below VZDC
causes GATE to stop switching. Increasing VCTL above VZDC (zero duty cycle voltage) raises the switching
MOSFET programmed peak current. The maximum (peak) current is requested at approximately VZDC + (2 ×
VCSMAX). The ac gain from CTL to the PWM comparator is 0.5. The internal divider from CTL to ARTN is
approximately 100 kΩ.
Use VB as a pull up source for CTL.
DEN
DEN (detection and enable) is a multifunction pin for PoE detection and inhibiting operation from PoE power.
Connect a 24.9 kΩ resistor from DEN to VDD to provide the PoE detection signature. DEN goes to a
high-impedance state when VVDD-VSS is outside of the detection range. Pulling DEN to VSS during powered
operation causes the internal hotswap MOSFET and class regulator to turn off, while the reduced detection
resistance prevents the PD from properly re-detecting.
DT
Dead-time programming sets the delay between GATE and GAT2 to prevent overlap of MOSFET ON times as
shown in Figure 2. GAT2 turns the second MOSFET off when it transitions high. Both MOSFETs should be off
between GAT2 going high to GATE going high, and GATE going low to GAT2 going low. The maximum GATE
ON time is reduced by the programmed dead-time period. The dead time period is specified with 1 nF of
capacitance on GATE and GAT2. Different loading on these pins will change the effective dead time.
A resistor connected from DT to ARTN sets the delay between GATE and GAT2 per Equation 3.
RDT (kW ) =
tDT (ns )
2
(3)
Connect DT to VB to set the dead time to 0 and turn GAT2 off.
FRS
Connect a resistor from FRS (frequency and synchronization) to ARTN to program the converter switching
frequency. Select the resistor per the following relationship.
RFRS (kW) =
17250
fSW (kHz)
(4)
The converter may be synchronized to a frequency above its maximum free-running frequency by applying short
ac-coupled pulses into the FRS pin per Figure 30.
The FRS pin is high impedance. Keep the connections short and apart from potential noise sources. Special care
should be taken to avoid crosstalk when synchronizing circuits are used.
GATE
Gate drive output for the dc/dc converter’s main switching MOSFET. GATE’s phase turns the main switch on
when it transitions high, and off when it transitions low. GATE is held low when the converter is disabled.

GAT2
GAT2 is the second gate drive output for the dc/dc converter. GAT2’s phase turns the second switch off when it
transitions high, and on when it transitions low. This drives active-clamp PMOS devices per Figure 1, and driven
flyback synchronous rectifiers per Figure 28. See the DT Pin Description for GATE to GAT2 timing. Connecting
DT to VB disables GAT2 in a high-impedance condition. GAT2 is low when the converter is disabled.
PPD
PPD is a multifunction pin that has two voltage thresholds, PPD1 and PPD2.
PPD1 permits power to come from an external low voltage adapter, e.g., 24 V, connected from VDD to VSS by
over-riding the normal hotswap UVLO. Voltage on PPD above 1.55 V (VPPDEN) enables the hotswap MOSFET,
inhibits class current, and enables T2P. A resistor divider per Figure 35 provides ESD protection, leakage
discharge for the adapter ORing diode, reverse adapter protection, and input voltage qualification. Voltage
qualification assures the adapter output voltage is high enough that it can support the PD before it begins to draw
current.

PPD2 enables normal class regulator operation when VPPD is above 8.3 V to permit type 2 classification when
APD is used in conjunction with diode DVDD (see Figure 34). Tie PPD to VDD when PPD2 operation is desired.
The PPD pin has a 5 µA internal pull-down current.
Locate the PPD pull-down resistor adjacent to the pin when used.
PPD may be tied to VSS or left open when not used.
RTN, ARTN, COM
RTN is internally connected to the drain of the PoE hotswap MOSFET, while ARTN is the quiet analog reference
for the dc/dc controller return. COM serves as the return path for the gate drivers and should be tied to ARTN on
the circuit board. The ARTN / COM / RTN net should be treated as a local reference plane (ground plane) for the
dc/dc control and converter primary. RTN and (ARTN/COM) may be separated by several volts for special
applications.
T2P
T2P is an active low output that indicates [ (VAPD > 1.5 V) OR (1.55 V ≤ VPPD ≤ 8.3 V) OR (type 2 hardware
classification observed) ]. T2P is valid after both a delay of tT2P from the start of converter switching, and [VCTL ≤
(VB – 1 V)]. Once T2P is valid, VCTL will not effect it. T2P will become invalid if the converter goes back into
softstart, over-temperature, or is held off by the PD during CIN recharge (inrush). T2P is referenced to ARTN and
is intended to drive the diode side of an optocoupler. T2P should be left open or tied to ARTN if not used.
VB
VB is an internal 5.1V regulated dc/dc controller supply rail that is typically bypassed by a 0.1 µF capacitor to
ARTN. VB should be used to bias the feedback optocoupler.
VC
VC is the bias supply for the dc/dc controller. The MOSFET gate drivers run directly from VC. VB is regulated
down from VC, and is the bias voltage for the rest of the converter control. A startup current source from VDD1 to
VC is controlled by a comparator with hysteresis to implement the converter bootstrap startup. VC must be
connected to a bias source, such as a converter auxiliary output, during normal operation.

A minimum 0.47 µF capacitor, located adjacent to the VC pin, should be connected from VC to COM to bypass
the gate driver. A larger total capacitance is required for startup to provide control power between the time the
converter starts switching and the availability of the converter auxiliary output voltage.
VDD
VDD is the positive input power rail that is derived from the PoE source (PSE). VDD should be bypassed to VSS
with a 0.1 µF capacitor as required by the IEEE standard. A transient suppressor diode (TVS), a special type of
Zener diode, such as SMAJ58A should be connected from VDD to VSS to protect against over-voltage transients.
VDD1
VDD1 is the dc/dc converter startup supply. Connect to VDD for many applications. VDD1 may be isolated by a
diode from VDD to support PoE priority operation.
VSS
VSS is the PoE input-power return side. It is the reference for the PoE interface circuits, and has a current-limited
hotswap switch that connects it to RTN. VSS is clamped to a diode drop above RTN by the hotswap switch.
A local VSS reference plane should be used to connect the input bypass capacitor, TVS, RCLS, and the
PowerPad. This plane becomes the main heatsink for the TPS23754.
VSS is internally connected to the PowerPAD.
PowerPAD
The Powerpad is internally connected to VSS. It should be tied to a large VSS copper area on the PCB to provide
a low resistance thermal path to the circuit board. It is recommended that a clearance of 0.025” be maintained
between VSS, RTN, and various control signals to high-voltage signals such as VDD and VDD1.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
PoE OVERVIEW
The following text is intended as an aid in understanding the operation of the TPS23754 but not as a substitute
for the actual IEEE 802.3-2005 or IEEE 802.3at standard. The pending IEEE 802.3at standard is an update to
IEEE 802.3-2005 clause 33 (PoE), adding high-power options and enhanced classification. Generally speaking, a
device compliant to IEEE 802.3-2005 will be referred to as a type 1 device, and devices with high power and
enhanced classification will be referred to as type 2 devices. Standards change and should always be referenced
when making design decisions.

The IEEE 802.3-2005 (802.3at) standard defines a method of safely powering a PD (powered device) over a
cable by power sourcing equipment (PSE), and then removing power if a PD is disconnected. The process
proceeds through an idle state and three operational states of detection, classification, and operation. The PSE
leaves the cable unpowered (idle state) while it periodically looks to see if something has been plugged in; this is
referred to as detection. The low power levels used during detection are unlikely to damage devices not designed
for PoE. If a valid PD signature is present, the PSE my inquire how much power the PD requires; this is referred
to as classification. The PSE may then power the PD if it has adequate capacity.
Type 2 PSEs are required to do type 1 hardware classification plus a (new) data-layer classification, or an
enhanced type 2 hardware classification. Type 1 PSEs are not required to do hardware or data link layer (DLL)
classification. A type 2 PD must do type 2 hardware classification as well as DLL classification. The PD may
return the default 12.95W (often referred to as 13W) current-encoded class, or one of four other choices. DLL
classification occurs after power-on and the ethernet data link has been established.

Once started, the PD must present the maintain power signature (MPS) to assure the PSE that it is still present.
The PSE monitors its output for a valid MPS, and turns the port off if it loses the MPS. Loss of the MPS returns
the PSE to the idle state. Figure 21 shows the operational states as a function of PD input voltage. The upper

Figure 21. Operational States for PD
The PD input, typically an RJ-45 eight-lead connector, is referred to as the power interface (PI). PD input
requirements differ from PSE output requirements to account for voltage drops and operating margin. The
standard allots the maximum loss to the cable regardless of the actual installation to simplify implementation.
IEEE 802.3-2005 was designed to run over infrastructure including ISO/IEC 11801 class C (CAT3 per
TIA/EIA-568) that may have had AWG 26 conductors. IEEE 802.3at cabling power loss allotments and voltage
drops have been adjusted for 12.5 Ω power loops per ISO/IEC11801 class D (CAT5 or higher per TIA/EIA-568,
typically AWG #24 conductors). Table 2 shows key operational limits broken out for the two revisions of the
standard.

The PSE can apply voltage either between the RX and TX pairs (pins 1 - 2 and 3 - 6 for 10baseT or 100baseT),
or between the two spare pairs (4 - 5 and 7 - 8). Power application to the same pin combinations in 1000baseT
systems is recognized in 802.3at. 1000baseT systems can handle data on all pairs, eliminating the spare pair
terminology. The PSE may only apply voltage to one set of pairs at a time. The PD uses input diode bridges to
accept power from any of the possible PSE configurations. The voltage drops associated with the input bridges
create a difference between the standard limits at the PI and the TPS23754 specifications.
A compliant type 2 PD has power management requirements not present with a type 1 PD. These requirements
include the following:
1. Must interpret type 2 hardware classification
2. Must present hardware class 4
3. Must implement DLL negotiation
4. Must behave like a type 1 PD during inrush and startup
5. Must not draw more than 13W for 80ms after PSE applies operating voltage (power-up)
6. Must not draw more than 13W if it has not received a type 2 hardware classification or received permission
through DLL
7. Must meet various operating and transient templates
8. Optionally monitor for the presence or absence of an adapter (assume high power).
As a result of these requirements, the PD must be able to dynamically control its loading, and monitor T2P for
changes. In cases where the design needs to know specifically if an adapter is plugged in and operational, the
adapter should be individually monitored, typically with an optocoupler.
Threshold Voltages
The TPS23754 has a number of internal comparators with hysteresis for stable switching between the various
states. Figure 22 relates the parameters in the Electrical Characteristics section to the PoE states. The mode
labeled idle between classification and operation implies that the DEN, CLS, and RTN pins are all high
impedance. The state labeled Mark, which is drawn in dashed lines, is part of the new type 2 hardware class
state machine.

The waveforms of Figure 23 demonstrate detection, classification, and startup from a PSE with type 2 hardware
classification. The key waveforms shown are VVDD-VVSS, VRTN-VVSS, and IPI. IEEE 802.3at requires a minimum of
two detection levels, two class and mark cycles, and startup from the second mark event. VRTN to VSS falls as the
TPS23754 charges CIN following application of full voltage. Subsequently, the converter starts up, drawing
current as seen in the IPI waveform.

Detection
The TPS23754 drives DEN to VSS whenever VVDD-VVSS is below the lower classification threshold. When the
input voltage rises above VCL-ON, the DEN pin goes to an open-drain condition to conserve power. While in
detection, RTN is high impedance, and almost all the internal circuits are disabled. An RDEN of 24.9 kΩ (1%),
presents the correct signature. It may be a small, low-power resistor since it only sees a stress of about 5 mW. A
valid PD detection signature is an incremental resistance ( ΔV / ΔI ) between 23.75 kΩ and 26.25 kΩ at the PI.
The detection resistance seen by the PSE at the PI is the result of the input bridge resistance in series with the
parallel combination of RDEN and internal VDD loading. The input diode bridge’s incremental resistance may be
hundreds of ohms at the very low currents drawn when 2.7 V is applied to the PI. The input bridge resistance is
partially cancelled by the TPS23754's effective resistance during detection.
The type 2 hardware classification protocol of IEEE 802.3at specifies that a type 2 PSE drops its output voltage
into the detection range during the classification sequence. The PD is required to have an incorrect detection
signature in this condition, which is referred to as the mark event (see Figure 23). After the first mark event, the
TPS23754 will present a signature less than 12 kΩ until it has experienced a VVDD-VVSS voltage below the mark
reset (VMSR). This is explained more fully under Hardware Classification.
Hardware Classification
Hardware classification allows a PSE to determine a PD’s power requirements before powering, and helps with
power management once power is applied. Type 2 hardware classification permits high power PSEs and PDs to
determine whether the connected device can support high-power operation. A type 2 PD presents class 4 in
hardware to indicate it is a high-power device. A type 1 PSE will treat a class 4 device like a class 0 device,
allotting 12.95 W if it chooses to power the PD. A PD that receives a 2 event class understands that it is powered
from a high-power PSE and it may draw up to 25.5 W immediately after the 80 ms startup period completes. A
type 2 PD that does not receive a 2-event hardware classification may choose to not start, or must start in a 13
W condition and request more power through the DLL after startup. The standard requires a type 2 PD to
indicate that it is underpowered if this occurs. Startup of a high-power PD under 13 W implicitly requires some
form of powering down sections of the application circuits.
The maximum power entries in Table 1 determine the class the PD must advertise. The PSE may disconnect a
PD if it draws more than its stated Class power, which may be the hardware class or a lower DLL-derived power
level. The standard permits the PD to draw limited current peaks that increase the instantaneous power above
the Table 1 limit, however the average power requirement always applies.

The TPS23754 implements two-event classification. Selecting an RCLS of 63.4 Ω provides a valid type 2
signature. TPS23754 may be used as a compatible type 1 device simply by programming class 0–3 per Table 1.
DLL communication is implemented by the ethernet communication system in the PD and is not implemented by
the TPS23754.
The TPS23754 disables classification above VCU_OFF to avoid excessive power dissipation. CLS voltage is turned
off during PD thermal limit or when APD or DEN are active. The CLS output is inherently current limited, but
should not be shorted to VSS for long periods of time.
Figure 24 shows how classification works for the TPS23754. Transition from state-to-state occurs when
comparator thresholds are crossed (see Figure 21 and Figure 22). These comparators have hysteresis, which
adds inherent memory to the machine. Operation begins at idle (unpowered by PSE) and proceeds with
increasing voltage from left to right. A 2-event classification follows the (heavy lined) path towards the bottom,
ending up with a latched type 2 decode along the lower branch that is highlighted. This state results in a low T2P
during normal operation. Once the valid path to type 2 PSE detection is broken, the input voltage must transition
below the mark reset threshold to start anew.

Inrush and Startup
802.3at has a startup current and time limitation, providing type 2 PSE compatibility for type 1 PDs. A type 2 PSE
limits output current to between 400 mA and 450 mA for up to 75 ms after power-up (applying “48 V” to the PI) in
order to mirror type 1 PSE functionality. The type 2 PSE will support higher output current after 75 ms. The
TPS23754 implements a 140 mA inrush current, which is compatible with all PSE types. A high-power PD must
control its converter startup peak and operational currents drawn to below 400 mA for 80 ms. The TPS23754’s
internal softstart permits control of the converter startup, however the application circuits must assure that their
power draw does not cause the PD to exceed the current/time limitation. This requirement implicitly requires
some form of powering down sections of the application circuits. T2P becomes valid within tT2P after switching
starts, or if an adapter is plugged in while the PD is operating from a PSE.
Maintain Power Signature
The MPS is an electrical signature presented by the PD to assure the PSE that it is still present after operating
voltage is applied. A valid MPS consists of a minimum dc current of 10 mA (or a 10 mA pulsed current for at
least 75 ms every 225 ms) and an ac impedance lower than 26.25 kΩ in parallel with 0.05 µF. The ac impedance
is usually accomplished by the minimum operating CIN requirement of 5 µF. When either APD or DEN is used to
force the hotswap switch off, the dc MPS will not be met. A PSE that monitors the dc MPS will remove power
from the PD when this occurs. A PSE that monitors only the ac MPS may remove power from the PD.

Startup and Converter Operation
The internal PoE UVLO (Under Voltage Lock Out) circuit holds the hotswap switch off before the PSE provides
full voltage to the PD. This prevents the converter circuits from loading the PoE input during detection and
classification. The converter circuits will discharge CIN, CVC, and CVB while the PD is unpowered. Thus VVDD-VRTN
will be a small voltage just after full voltage is applied to the PD, as seen in Figure 23. The PSE drives the PI
voltage to the operating range once it has decided to power up the PD. When VVDD rises above the UVLO
turn-on threshold (VUVLO-R, ~35 V) with RTN high, the TPS23754 enables the hotswap MOSFET with a ~140 mA
(inrush) current limit as seen in Figure 25. Converter switching is disabled while CIN charges and VRTN falls from
VVDD to nearly VVSS, however the converter startup circuit is allowed to charge CVC (the bootstrap startup
capacitor). Converter switching is allowed if the PD is not in inrush, OTSD is not active, and the VC UVLO
permits it. Once the inrush current falls about 10% below the inrush current limit, the PD current limit switches to
the operational level (~970 mA). Continuing the startup sequence shown in Figure 25, VVC continues to rise until
the startup threshold (VCUV, ~15 V or ~9 V) is exceeded, turning the startup source off and enabling switching.
The VB regulator is always active, powering the internal converter circuits as VVC rises. There is a slight delay
between the removal of charge current and the start of switching as the softstart ramp sweeps above the VZDC
threshold. VVC falls as it powers both the internal circuits and the switching MOSFET gates. If the converter
control bias output rises to support VVC before it falls to VCUV – VCUVH (~8.5 V or ~5.5 V), a successful startup
occurs. T2P in Figure 23 (Figure 1, VT2P-OUT) becomes active within tT2P from the start of switching, indicating
that a type 2 PSE or an adapter is plugged in.

Figure 25. Power Up and Start
If VVDD- VVSS drops below the lower PoE UVLO (VUVLO-R - VUVLO-H, ~30.5 V), the hotswap MOSFET is turned off,
but the converter will still run. The converter will stop if VVC falls below the converter UVLO (VCUV – VCUVH, ~8.5 V
or ~5.5 V), the hotswap is in inrush current limit, 0% duty cycle is demanded by VCTL (VCTL < VZDC, ~1.5 V), or
the converter is in thermal shutdown.
PD Hotswap Operation
IEEE 802.3at has taken a new approach to PSE output limiting. A type 2 PSE must meet an output current vs.
time template with specified minimum and maximum sourcing boundaries. The peak output current may be as
high as 50 A for 10 µs or 1.75 A for 75 ms. This makes robust protection of the PD device even more important
than it was in IEEE 802.3-2005.
The internal hotswap MOSFET is protected against output faults and input voltage steps with a current limit and
deglitched (time-delay filtered) foldback. An overload on the pass MOSFET engages the current limit, with
VRTN-VVSS rising as a result. If VRTN rises above ~12 V for longer than ~400 µs, the current limit reverts to the
inrush value, and turns the converter off. The 400 µs deglitch feature prevents momentary transients from

causing a PD reset, provided that recovery lies within the bounds of the hotswap and PSE protection. Figure 26
shows an example of recovery from a 16 V PSE rising voltage step. The hotswap MOSFET goes into current
limit, overshooting to a relatively low current, recovers to ~950 mA full current limit, and charges the input
capacitor while the converter continues to run. The MOSFET did not go into foldback because VRTN-VVSS was

The PD control has a thermal sensor that protects the internal hotswap MOSFET. Conditions like startup or
operation into a VDD to RTN short cause high power dissipation in the MOSFET. An over-temperature shutdown
(OTSD) turns off the hotswap MOSFET and class regulator, which are restarted after the device cools. The
hotswap MOSFET will be re-enabled with the inrush current limit when exiting from an over-temperature event.
Pulling DEN to VSS during powered operation causes the internal hotswap MOSFET to turn off. This feature
allows a PD with Option three ORing per Figure 27 to achieve adapter priority. Care must be taken with
synchronous converter topologies that can deliver power in both directions.
The hotswap switch will be forced off under the following conditions:
1. VAPD above VAPDEN (~1.5 V)
2. VDEN < VPD-DIS when VVDD– VVSS is in the operational range
3. PD over-temperature
4. (VVDD– VVSS) < PoE UVLO (~30.5 V).
Converter Controller Features
The TPS23754 dc/dc controller implements a typical current-mode control as shown in the Functional Block
Diagram. Features include oscillator, over-current and PWM comparators, current-sense blanker, dead-time
control, softstart, and gate driver. In addition, an internal slope-compensation ramp generator, frequency
synchronization logic, thermal shutdown, and startup current source with control are provided.
The TPS23754 is optimized for isolated converters, and does not provide an internal error amplifier. Instead, the
optocoupler feedback is directly fed to the CTL pin which serves as a current-demand control for the PWM.
There is an offset of VZDC (~1.5 V) and 2:1 resistor divider between the CTL pin and the PWM. A VCTL below
VZDC will stop converter switching, while voltages above (VZDC + (2 × VCSMAX)) will not increase the requested
peak current in the switching MOSFET. Optocoupler biasing design is eased by this limited control range.

Bootstrap Topology
The internal startup current source and control logic implement a bootstrap-type startup as discussed in “Startup
and Converter Operation.” The startup current source charges CVC from VDD1 when the converter is disabled
(either by the PD control or the VC control) to store enough energy to start the converter. Steady-state operating
power must come from a converter (bias winding) output or other source. Loading on VC and VB must be minimal
while CVC charges, otherwise the converter may never start. The optocoupler will not load VB when the converter
is off for most situations, however care should be taken in ORing topologies where the output is powered when
PoE is off.
The converter will shut off when VC falls below its lower UVLO. This can happen when power is removed from
the PD, or during a fault on a converter output rail. When one output is shorted, all the output voltages fall
including the one that powers VC. The control circuit discharges VC until it hits the lower UVLO and turns off. A
restart will initiate as described in Startup and Converter Operation if the converter turns off and there is sufficient
VDD1 voltage. This type of operation is sometimes referred to as hiccup mode which provides robust output short
protection by providing time-average heating reduction of the output rectifier.
The bootstrap control logic disables most of the converter controller circuits except the VB regulator and internal
reference. Both GATE and GAT2 (assuming GAT2 is enabled) will be low when the converter is disabled. FRS,
BLNK, and DT will be at ARTN while the VC UVLO disables the converter. While the converter runs, FRS, BLNK,
and DT will be about 1.25 V.
The startup current source transitions to a resistance as (VVDD1 – VVC) falls below 7 V, but will start the converter
from adapters within tST. The lower test voltage for tST was chosen based on an assumed adapter tolerance, but
is not meant to imply a hard cutoff exists. Startup takes longer and eventually will not occur as VDD1 decreases
below the test voltage. The bootstrap source provides reliable startup from widely varying input voltages, and
eliminates the continual power loss of external resistors. The startup current source will not charge above the
maximum recommended VVC if the converter is disabled and there is sufficient VDD1 to charge higher.
Current Slope Compensation and Current Limit
Current-mode control requires addition of a compensation ramp to the sensed inductive (transformer or inductor)
current for stability at duty cycles near and over 50%. The TPS23754 has a maximum duty cycle limit of 78%,
permitting the design of wide input-range flyback and active clamp converters with a lower voltage stress on the
output rectifiers. While the maximum duty cycle is 78%, converters may be designed that run at duty cycles well
below this for a narrower, 36 V to 57 V PI range. The TPS23754 provides a fixed internal compensation ramp
that suffices for most applications.
The TPS23754 provides internal, frequency independent, slope compensation (150 mV, VSLOPE) to the PWM
comparator input for current-mode control-loop stability. This voltage is not applied to the current-limit comparator
whose threshold is 0.55 V (VCSMAX). If the provided slope is not sufficient, the effective slope may be increased
by addition of RS per Figure 31. The additional slope voltage is provided by (ISL-EX × RS). There is also a small dc
offset caused by the ~2.5 µA pin current. The peak current limit does not have duty cycle dependency unless RS
is used. This makes it easier to design the current limit to a fixed value. See Current Slope Compensation for
more information.
The internal comparators monitoring CS are isolated from the IC pin by the blanking circuits while GATE is low,
and for a short time (blanking period) just after GATE switches high. A 440 Ω (max) equivalent pull down on CS
is applied while GATE is low.
Blanking - RBLNK
The TPS23754 provides a choice between internal fixed and programmable blanking periods. The blanking
period is specified as an increase in the minimum GATE on time over the inherent gate driver and comparator
delays. The default period (see the Electrical Characteristics table) is selected by connecting BLNK to RTN, and
the programmable period is set with RBLNK.
The TPS23754 blanker timing is precise enough that the traditional R-C filters on CS can be eliminated. This
avoids current-sense waveform distortion, which tends to get worse at light output loads. There may be some
situations or designers that prefer an R-C approach. The TPS23754 provides a pull-down on CS during the
GATE off time to improve sensing when an R-C filter must be used. The CS input signal should be protected
from nearby noisy signals like GATE drive and the switching MOSFET drain.

Dead Time
The TPS23754 features two switching MOSFET gate drivers to ease implementation of high-efficiency
topologies. Specifically, these include active (primary) clamp topologies and those with synchronous drivers that
are hard-driven by the control circuit. In all cases, there is a need to assure that both driven MOSFETs are not
on at the same time. The DT pin programs a fixed time period delay between the turn-off of one gate driver until
the turn-on of the next. This feature is an improvement over the repeatability and accuracy of discrete solutions
while eliminating a number of discrete parts on the board. Converter efficiency is easily tuned with this one
repeatable adjustment. The programmed dead time is the same for both GATE-to-GAT2 and GAT2-to-GATE
transitions. The dead time is triggered from internal signals that are several stages back in the driver to eliminate
the effects of gate loading on the period, however the observed and actual dead-time will be somewhat
dependent on the gate loading. The turnoff of GAT2 coincides with the start of the internal clock period.
DT may be used to disable GAT2, which goes to a high-impedance state.
GATE’s phase turns the main switch on when it transitions high, and off when it transitions low. GAT2’s phase
turns the second switch off when it transitions high, and on when it transitions low. Both switches should be off
when GAT2 is high and GATE is low. The signal phasing is shown in Figure 2. Many topologies that use
secondary-side synchronous rectifiers also use N-Channel MOSFETs driven through a gate-drive transformer.
The proper signal phase for these rectifiers may be achieved by inverting the phasing of the secondary winding
(swapping the leads). Use of the two gate drives is shown in Figure 1 and Figure 28.
FRS and Synchronization
The FRS pin programs the (free-running) oscillator frequency, and may also be used to synchronize the
TPS23754 converter to a higher frequency. The internal oscillator sets the maximum duty cycle at 78% and
controls the slope-compensation ramp circuit. Synchronization may be accomplished by applying a short pulse
(TSYNC) of magnitude VSYNC to FRS as shown in Figure 30. The synchronization pulse terminates the potential
on-time period, and the off-time period does not begin until the pulse terminates.
T2P, Startup and Power Management
T2P (type 2 PSE) is an active-low multifunction pin that indicates if
[(PSE = Type_2) + (1.5 V < VAPD) + (1.55 V < VPPD< 8.3 V)] × (VCTL < 4 V) × (pd current limit ≠ Inrush).
The term with VCTL prevents an optocoupler connected to the secondary-side from loading VC before the
converter is started. The APD and PPD terms allow the PD to operate from an adapter at high-power if a type 2
PSE is not present, assuming the adapter has sufficient capacity. Applications must monitor the state of T2P to
detect power source transitions. Transitions could occur when a local power supply is added or dropped or when
a PSE is enabled on the far end. The PD may be required to adjust the load appropriately. The usage of T2P is
demonstrated in Figure 1.
In order for a type 2 PD to operate at less than 13 W the first 80 ms after power application, the various delays
must be estimated and used by the application controller to meet the requirement. The bootup time of many
applications processors may be long enough to eliminate the need to do any timing.
Thermal Shutdown
The dc/dc controller has an OTSD that can be triggered by heat sources including the VB regulator, GATE driver,
bootstrap current source, and bias currents. The controller OTSD turns off VB, the GATE driver, and forces the
VC control into an under-voltage state.
Adapter ORing
Many PoE-capable devices are designed to operate from either a wall adapter or PoE power. A local power
solution adds cost and complexity, but allows a product to be used if PoE is not available in a particular
installation. While most applications only require that the PD operate when both sources are present, the
TPS23754 supports forced operation from either of the power sources. Figure 27 illustrates three options for
diode ORing external power into a PD. Only one option would be used in any particular design. Option 1 applies
power to the TPS23754 PoE input, option 2 applies power between the TPS23754 PoE section and the power
circuit, and option 3 applies power to the output side of the converter. Each of these options has advantages and
disadvantages. Many of the basic ORing configurations and discussion contained in application note Advanced
Adapter ORing Solutions using the TPS23753 (literature number SLVA306A), apply to the TPS23754.

Figure 27. ORing Configurations
The IEEE standards require that the Ethernet cable be isolated from ground and all other system potentials. The
adapter must meet a minimum 1500 Vac dielectric withstand test between the output and all other connections
for ORing options 1 and 2. The adapter only needs this isolation for option 3 if it is not provided by the converter.
Adapter ORing diodes are shown for all the options to protect against a reverse voltage adapter, a short on the
adapter input pins, and damage to a low-voltage adapter. ORing is sometimes accomplished with a MOSFET in
option 3.
PPD ORing Features
The TPS23754 provides several additional features to ease ORing based on the multifunction PPD pin (not
available on TPS23754-1). These include T2P signaling of an option 1 adapter, use of a 24 V adapter (reduced
output power) for option 1, and use of PoE as a power backup in conjunction with option 2. See the Advanced
ORing Techniques section.
ORing Challenges
Preference of one power source presents a number of challenges. Combinations of adapter output voltage
(nominal and tolerance), power insertion point, and which source is preferred determine solution complexity.
Several factors adding to the complexity are the natural high-voltage selection of diode ORing (the simplest
method of combining sources), the current limit implicit in the PSE, and PD inrush and protection circuits
(necessary for operation and reliability). Creating simple and seamless solutions is difficult if not impossible for
many of the combinations. However the TPS23754 offers several built-in features that simplify some
combinations.
Several examples will demonstrate the limitations inherent in ORing solutions. Diode ORing a 48 V adapter with
PoE (option 1) presents the problem that either source might be higher. A blocking switch would be required to
assure which source was active. A second example is combining a 12 V adapter with PoE using option 2. The
converter will draw approximately four times the current at 12 V from the adapter than it does from PoE at 48 V.
Transition from adapter power to PoE may demand more current than can be supplied by the PSE. The
converter must be turned off while CIN capacitance charges, with a subsequent converter restart at the higher
voltage and lower input current. A third example is use of a 12 V adapter with ORing option 1. The PD hotswap
would have to handle four times the current, and have 1/16 the resistance (be 16 times larger) to dissipate equal
power. A fourth example is that MPS is lost when running from the adapter, causing the PSE to remove power
from the PD. If ac power is then lost, the PD will stop operating until the PSE detects and powers the PD.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
The TPS23754 will support many power supply topologies that require a single PWM gate drive or two
complementary gate drives and will operate with current-mode control. Figure 1 provides an example of an active
clamp forward converter that uses the second gate driver to control M2, the active element in the clamp. GAT2
may also be used to drive a synchronous rectifier as demonstrated in Figure 28. The TPS23754 may be used in
topologies that do not require GAT2, which may be disabled to reduce its idling loss.
Selecting a converter topology along with a design procedure is beyond the scope of this applications section.
Examples to help in programming the TPS23754 are shown below. Additional special topics are included to
explain the ORing capabilities, frequency dithering, and other design considerations.

Input Bridges and Schottky Diodes
Using Schottky diodes instead of PN junction diodes for the PoE input bridges and DVDD will reduce the loss of
this function by about 30%. There are however some things to consider when using them.
The IEEE standard specifies a maximum backfeed voltage of 2.8 V. A 100 kΩ resistor is placed between the
unpowered pairs and the voltage is measured across the resistor. Schottky diodes often have a higher reverse
leakage current than PN diodes, making this a harder requirement to meet. Use conservative design for diode
operating temperature, select lower-leakage devices where possible, and match leakage and temperatures by
using packaged bridges to help with this.
Schottky diode leakage current and lower dynamic resistance can impact the detection signature. Setting
reasonable expectations for the temperature range over which the detection signature is accurate is the simplest
solution. Increasing RDEN slightly may also help meet the requirement.
Schottky diodes have proven less robust to the stresses of ESD transients, failing as a short or becoming leaky.
Care must be taken to provide adequate protection in line with the exposure levels. This protection may be as
simple as ferrite beads and capacitors.
A general recommendation for the input rectifiers are 1 A or 2 A, 100 V rated discrete or bridge diodes.

Protection, D1
A TVS, D1, across the rectified PoE voltage per Figure 29 must be used. An SMAJ58A, or a part with equal to or
better performance, is recommended for general indoor applications. If an adapter is connected from VDD1 to
RTN, as in ORing option 2 above, voltage transients caused by the input cable inductance ringing with the
internal PD capacitance can occur. Adequate capacitive filtering or a TVS must limit this voltage to be within the
absolute maximum ratings. Outdoor transient levels or special applications require additional protection.
Use of diode DVDD for PoE priority may dictate the use of additional protection around the TPS23754. ESD
events between the PD power inputs, or the inputs and converter output, cause large stresses in the hotswap
MOSFET if DVDD becomes reverse biased and transient current around the TPS23754 is blocked. The use of
CVDD and DRTN in Figure 29 provides additional protection should over-stress of the TPS23754 be an issue. An
SMAJ58A would be a good initial selection for DRTN. Individual designs may have to tune the value of CVDD.

Capacitor, C1
The IEEE 802.3-2005 standard specifies an input bypass capacitor (from VDD to VSS) of 0.05 µF to 0.12 µF.
Typically a 0.1 µF, 100 V, 10% ceramic capacitor is used.
Detection Resistor, RDEN
The IEEE 802.3-2005 standard specifies a detection signature resistance, RDEN between 23.75 kΩ and 26.25 kΩ,
or 25 kΩ ± 5%. Choose an RDEN of 24.9 kΩ.
Classification Resistor, RCLS
Connect a resistor from CLS to VSS to program the classification current according to the IEEE 802.3-2005
standard. The class power assigned should correspond to the maximum average power drawn by the PD during
operation. Select RCLS according to Table 1.
For a high power design, choose class 4 and RCLS = 63.4 Ω.
APD Pin Divider Network, RAPD1, RAPD2
The APD pin can be used to disable the TPS23754 internal hotswap MOSFET giving the adapter source priority
over the PoE source. An example calculation is provided, see literature number SLVA306A.
PPD Pin Divider Network, RPPD1, RPPD2
The PPD pin can be used to override the internal hotswap MOSFET UVLO (VUVLO_R and VUVLO_H) when using
low voltage adapters connected between VDD and VSS. The PPD pin has an internal 5 µA pulldown current
source. As an example, consider the choice of RPPD1 and RPPD2, for a 24 V adapter.
1. Select the startup voltage, VADPTR-ON approximately 75% of nominal for a 24 V adapter. Assuming that the
adapter output is 24 V ± 10%, this provides 15% margin below the minimum adapter operating voltage.

Setting Frequency (RFRS) and Synchronization
The converter switching frequency is set by connecting RFRS from the FRS pin to ARTN. The frequency may be
set as high as 1 MHz with some loss in programming accuracy as well as converter efficiency. Synchronization
at high duty cycles may become more difficult above 500 kHz due to the internal oscillator delays reducing the
available on-time. As an example:

The TPS23754 may be synchronized to an external clock to eliminate beat frequencies from a sampled system,
or to place emission spectrum away from an RF input frequency. Synchronization may be accomplished by
applying a short pulse (TSYNC) of magnitude VSYNC to FRS as shown in Figure 30. RFRS should be chosen so that
the maximum free-running frequency is just below the desired synchronization frequency. The synchronization
pulse terminates the potential on-time period, and the off-time period does not begin until the pulse terminates.
The pulse at the FRS pin should reach between 2.5 V and VB, with a minimum width of 22 ns (above 2.5 V) and
rise/fall times less than 10 ns. The FRS node should be protected from noise because it is high-impedance. An
RT on the order of 100 Ω in the isolated example reduces noise sensitivity and jitter.

Current Slope Compensation
The TPS23754 provides a fixed internal compensation ramp that suffices for most applications. RS (see
Figure 31) may be used if the internally provided slope compensation is not enough.
Most current-mode control papers and application notes define the slope values in terms of VPP/TS (peak ramp
voltage / switching period), however the electrical characteristics table specifies the slope peak (VSLOPE) based
on the maximum (78%) duty cycle. Assuming that the desired slope, VSLOPE-D (in mV/period), is based on the full
period, compute RS per the following equation where VSLOPE, DMAX, and ISL-EX are from the electrical
characteristics table with voltages in mV, current in µA, and the duty cycle is unitless (e.g., DMAX = 0.78).

Blanking Period, RBLNK
Selection of the blanking period is often empirical because it is affected by parasitics and thermal effects of every
device between the gate-driver and output capacitors. The minimum blanking period prevents the current limit
and PWM comparators from being falsely triggered by the inherent current spike that occurs when the switching
MOSFET turns on. The maximum blanking period is bounded by the output rectifier's ability to withstand the
currents experienced during a converter output short.
If blanking beyond the internal default is desired choose RBLNK using RBLNK (kΩ) = tBLNK (ns).

Dead Time Resistor, RDT

the optimum timing resistor is to build the supply and tune the dead time to achieve the best efficiency after
considering all corners of operation (load, input voltage, and temperature). A good initial value is 100 ns.
Program the dead time with a resistor connected from DT to ARTN per Equation 3.

Estimating Bias Supply Requirements and CVC
The bias supply (VC) power requirements determine the CVC sizing and frequency of hiccup during a fault. The
first step is to determine the power/current requirements of the power supply control, then use this to select CVC.
The control current draw will be assumed constant with voltage to simplify the estimate, resulting in an
approximate value.
First determine the switching MOSFET gate drive power.

Switching Transformer Considerations and RVC
Care in design of the transformer and VC bias circuit is required to obtain hiccup overload protection.
Leading-edge voltage overshoot on the bias winding may cause VC to peak-charge, preventing the expected
tracking with output voltage. Some method of controlling this is usually required. This may be as simple as a
series resistor, or an R-C filter in front of DVC1. Good transformer bias-to-output-winding coupling results in
reduced overshoot and better voltage tracking.
RVC as shown in Figure 32 helps to reduce peak charging from the bias winding. This becomes especially
important when tuning hiccup mode operation during output overload. Typical values for RVC will be between 10
Ω and 100 Ω.

T2P Pin Interface
The T2P pin is an active low, open-drain output indicating a high power source is available. An optocoupler is
typically used to interface with the T2P pin to signal equipment on the secondary side of the converter of T2P
status. Optocoupler current-gain is referred to as CTR (current transfer ratio), which is the ratio of transistor
collector current to LED current. To preserve efficiency, a high-gain optocoupler ( 250% ≤ CTR ≤ 500%, or 300%
≤ CTR ≤ 600% ) along with a high-impedance (e.g., CMOS) receiver are recommended. Design of the T2P

3. The optocoupler CTR will be needed to determine RT2P. A device with a minimum CTR of 300% at 5 mA
LED bias current is selected. CTR will also vary with temperature and LED bias current. The strong variation
of CTR with diode current makes this a problem that requires some iteration using the CTR versus IDIODE
curve on the optocoupler data sheet.
a. Using the (normalized) curves, a current of 0.4 mA to 0.5 mA is required to support the output current at
the minimum CTR at 25°C.

b. Use the optocoupler datasheet curve to determine the effective CTR at this operating current. It is
usually necessary to apply the normalized curve value to the minimum specified CTR. It might be
necessary to ratio or offset the curve readings to obtain a value that is relative to the current that the
CTR is specified at.

Option 2 ORing with PoE acting as a hot backup is eased by connecting PPD to VDD per Figure 34. This PPD
connection enables the class regulator even when APD is high. The R-Zener network (1.8 kΩ – 24 V) is the
simplest circuit that will satisfy MPS requirements, keeping the PSE online. This network may be switched out
when the APD is not powered with an optocoupler. This works best with a 48-V adapter and the
APD-programmed threshold as high as possible. An example of an adapter priority application with smooth
switchover between a 48 V adapter and PoE is shown on the right side of Figure 34. DAPD is used to reduce the
effective APD hysteresis, allowing the PSE to power the load before VVDD1-VRTN falls too low and causes a
hotswap foldback.

Figure 34. Option 2 PoE Backup ORing
Option 1 ORing of a low voltage adapter (e.g., 24 V) is possible by connecting a resistor divider to PPD as in
Figure 35. When 1.55 V ≤ VPPD ≤ 8.3 V, the hotswap MOSFET is enabled, T2P is activated, and the class
feature is disabled. The hotswap current limit is unaffected, limiting the available power. For example, the
maximum input power from a 24 V adapter would be 19.3 W [(24 V – 0.6 V) × 0.825 A].

Softstart
Converters require a softstart on the voltage error amplifier to prevent output overshoot on startup. Figure 36
shows a common implementation of a secondary-side softstart that works with the typical TL431 error amplifier.
The softstart components consist of DSS, RSS, and CSS. They serve to control the output rate-of-rise by pulling
VCTL down as CSS charges through ROB, the optocoupler, and DSS. This has the added advantage that the TL431
output and CIZ are preset to the proper value as the output voltage reaches the regulated value, preventing
voltage overshoot due to the error amplifier recovery. The secondary-side error amplifier will not become active
until there is sufficient voltage on the secondary. The TPS23754 provides a primary-side softstart which persists
long enough (~4 ms) for secondary side voltage-loop softstart to take over. The primary-side current-loop
softstart controls the switching MOSFET peak current by applying a slowly rising ramp voltage to a second PWM
control input. The PWM is controlled by the lower of the softstart ramp or the CTL-derived current demand. The
actual output voltage rise time is usually much shorter than the internal softstart period. Initially the internal
softstart ramp limits the maximum current demand as a function of time. Either the current limit, secondary-side
softstart, or output regulation assume control of the PWM before the internal softstart period is over. Figure 25
shows a smooth handoff between the primary and secondary-side softstart with minimal output voltage
overshoot.

Special Switching MOSFET Considerations
Special care must be used in selecting the converter switching MOSFET. The TPS23756 minimum switching
MOSFET VGATE is ~5.5 V, which is due to the VC lower threshold. This will occur during an output overload, or
towards the end of a (failed) bootstrap startup. The MOSFET must be able to carry the anticipated peak fault
current at this gate voltage.
Thermal Considerations and OTSD
Sources of nearby local PCB heating should be considered during the thermal design. Typical calculations
assume that the TPS23754 is the only heat source contributing to the PCB temperature rise. It is possible for a
normally operating TPS23754 device to experience an OTSD event if it is excessively heated by a nearby
device.
Frequency Dithering for Conducted Emissions Control
The international standard CISPR 22 (and adopted versions) is often used as a requirement for conducted
emissions. Ethernet cables are covered as a telecommunication port under section 5.2 for conducted emissions.
Meeting EMI requirements is often a challenge, with the lower limits of Class B being especially hard. Circuit
board layout, filtering, and snubbing various nodes in the power circuit are the first layer of control techniques. A
more detailed discussion of EMI control is presented in Practical Guidelines to Designing an EMI Compliant PoE
Powered Device With Isolated Flyback, TI literature number SLUA469. Additionally, IEEE802.3-2005 sections
33.3 and 33.4 have requirements for noise injected onto the Ethernet cable based on compatibility with data
transmission.
Occasionally, a technique referred to as frequency dithering is utilized to provide additional EMI measurement
reduction. The switching frequency is modulated to spread the narrowband individual harmonics across a wider
bandwidth, thus lowering peak measurements. The circuit of Figure 37 modulates the switching frequency by
feeding a small ac signal into the FRS pin. These values may be adapted to suit individual needs.

ESD
The TPS23754 has been tested to EN61000-4-2 using a power supply based on Figure 1. The levels used were
8 kV contact discharge and 15 kV air discharge. Surges were applied between the PoE input and the dc output,
between the adapter input and the dc output, between the adapter and the PoE inputs, and to the dc output with
respect to earth. Tests were done both powered and unpowered. No TPS23754 failures were observed and
operation was continuous. See Figure 29 for additional protection for some test configurations.
ESD requirements for a unit that incorporates the TPS23754 have a much broader scope and operational
implications than are used in TI’s testing. Unit-level requirements should not be confused with reference design
testing that only validates the ruggedness of the TPS23754.
Layout
Printed circuit board layout recommendations are provided in the evaluation module (EVM) documentation
available for these devices.
