Press Release Summary:
Supplied in an 8-pin SOIC package, TPS2376-H Power over Ethernet (PoE) controller has all features needed to develop IEEE 802.3af-compliant powered device. It has front-end architecture and lets designer implement non-standard powered device that draws up to 26 W of power from power source equipment with min of 52 V of input and 100+ m of CAT-5 Ethernet cable. Along with auto-retry and fault protection, safety features include programmable, 600 mA current limit with thermal shutdown.
Original Press Release:
TI Introduces First 26-Watt Power over Ethernet Controller for IP Surveillance Cameras and Phones
High-Power PoE Controller Opens Door to Next Wave of Ethernet-Powered Devices
DALLAS (September 22, 2006) -- Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NYSE: TXN) today introduced a 26-watt Power over Ethernet (PoE) controller that allows Ethernet-powered devices, such as IP surveillance cameras, WiMAX access points and conference IP phones, to use twice as much power from a standard Ethernet cable - without the need of an AC line. TI will demonstrate the new power management integrated circuit (IC) in a high-power PoE reference design at the ASIS International security conference in San Diego, September 25-28. See: www.ti.com/sc06181.
TI's 8-pin, TPS2376-H controller contains all of the features needed to develop an IEEE 802.3af-compliant powered device with innovative safety features including a programmable, 600-mA current limit with thermal shutdown, auto-retry and fault protection. The high-power device also allows a designer to implement a non-standard powered device that draws up to 26 watts of power from power source equipment (PSE) with a minimum of 52 volts of input and over 100 meters of CAT-5 Ethernet cable. The TPS2376-H supports voltage transients up to 100 V at 600-mA. In addition, the device can operate at 24 V over an industrial temperature range of -40C to 85C, enabling support of emerging Ethernet-powered medical and industrial equipment.
Requiring a minimum number of external components, the flexible TPS2376-H is housed in a PowerPad(TM) package with an integrated 0.6-ohm FET to minimize heat dissipation in the system. The controller's simple front-end architecture gives designers increased flexibility when designing the back-end power stage topology. In addition, the TPS2376-H eases powered device startup capability with adjustable in-rush current limit and an auto-retry feature, which provides automatic start-up on fault. The controller's power conversion functionality includes several additional protection and low-noise features, such as 15-kV system-level electrostatic discharge (ESD) capability, adjustable undervoltage lockout and open drain power good reporting.
