Linear Technology DC1814A Demo Manual

Description
Demonstration circuit 1814A features the
single port power sourcing equipment (PSE) controller,
capable of delivering up to 90W of LTPoE ++ ™ power to a
compatible LTPoE ++ powered device (PD). A proprietary
detection/classification scheme allows mutual identifica-
tion between an LTPoE ++ PSE and LTPoE ++ PD while
remaining compatible and interoperable with existing
Type 1 (13W) and Type 2 (25.5W) PDs. The LTC4274A
feature set is a superset of the popular LTC4274. These
PSE controllers utilize low R
0.25Ω sense resistors which are especially important at
the LTPoE ++ current levels to maintain the lowest possible
heat dissipation.
The LTC4274A is available in multiple power grades, allow-
ing delivered PD power of 13W, 25.5W, 38.7W, 52.7W, 70W
and 90W. The DC1814A has four variations DC1814A-A,
DC1814A-B, DC1814A-C, and DC1814A-D which accom-
modate the LTPoE ++ power levels (Table 1).

The LTC4274A is configured in the DC1814A as an AUTO pin
high, MID pin high, autonomous midspan power injector;
input data from an existing network system is sent out,
along with power, to a PD. The LTC4274A autonomously
detects a PD, turns power on to the port, and disconnects
port power without the need for a microcontroller. A single
55V supply is required to power the DC1814A. A simple
LDO regulator circuit on the board powers the digital sup-
ply of the LTC4274A. A SHDN pushbutton shuts down the
port and disables detection. A RESET pushbutton resets
the LTC4274A to the AUTO pin high state.
