GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The EVAL-LTC9101-3 is a 16-channel IEEE 802.3at compliant pow-
er sourcing equipment (PSE) with autonomous power management
and serial LED driver for port LEDs. The EVAL-LTC9101-3 includes
the EVAL-LTC9101-3-AZ daughter card, the EVAL-LTC9101-3-MB-
AZ motherboard, and features the
platform chipset.
In the EVAL-LTC9101-3, a single
faces with up to two LTC9103, 8-channel, analog controllers for
16 power channels total. Up to sixteen IEEE 802.3af/at/bt powered
devices (PDs) can be connected to the EVAL-LTC9101-3 and
powered from this system using a single power supply.

as the host controller and eliminate the need for an additional
isolated 3.3 V supply. The EVAL-LTC9101-3 operates completely
autonomously without a host controller, including flash configuration
for power management and port LEDs. Port Status and Fault LEDs
quickly show PoE status for up to sixteen ports, including fault
codes, driven by the LTC9101-3 using a serial LED driver. A Supply
Overload LED warns if system power usage is near the power
budget and indicates if port power is denied or revoked.
Robust surge protection is provided by design and on-board
surge protection devices. An optional on-board buck regulator
provides 3.3 V from the VEE supply for the digital circuits. This
demonstration manual provides a quick start procedure and an
EVAL-LTC9101-3 overview.
