MAX5992AETG+

The MAX5992A/MAX5992B multisource, high-power, high-performance powered device (PD) controllers provide a complete interface control for PDs to comply with the IEEE^® 802.3af/at standard in a Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) system. The devices provide the PD with a detection signature, classification signature, and an isolation MOSFET driver with current-limit control. In addition, the intelligent maintain power signature (MPS) and active FET bridge control make the PD more power efficient. The devices feature a active-low SIG_OK output signal for high-power Multi-2P PD applications. The selectable inrush-current modes allow Multi-PD, fiber-to-the-home/fiber-to-the-building (FTTH/FTTB) operation in redundancy applications. The devices feature an input UVLO, wide hysteresis, and long deglitch time to compensate for twisted-pair cable resistive drop to assure glitch-free transition during power-on/power-off conditions. The devices can operate from a 20.8V low-voltage supply by a selectable UVLO. The devices can withstand up to 100V at the input.
