Press Release Summary:
Combining TPS2375 powered device controller with primary side dc/dc PWM controller, TPS23750 manages discovery, classification, and delivery of dc power to end appliance. It supports non-isolated or isolated power supply topologies and withstands voltage transients up to 100 V. To meet power requirements of legacy systems that are not fully 802.3af-compliant, TPS23770 integrated PD controller includes under-voltage lockout turn-on voltage.
Original Press Release:
TI Introduces 100-V Power-over-Ethernet Single-Chip Controller for IP Phones and WLAN Systems
Highly Integrated Power IC Combines Power Device Control with DC/DC Controller to Simplify Design of Ethernet-Powered Applications
DALLAS (Aug. 15, 2005) - Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NYSE: TXN) today announced its third generation Power-over-Ethernet controller technology that eases implementation of Ethernet-powered devices such as WLAN access points, IP phones, security and RFID scanners. See: www.ti.com/sc05166.
The TPS23750 is a highly integrated circuit (IC) that combines the functionality of TI's TPS2375 powered device (PD) controller with a primary side DC/DC pulse-width modulation (PWM) controller to effectively manage discovery, classification and delivery of direct-current (DC) power to an end appliance. Requiring a minimum number of external components, the flexible TPS23750 offers the highest levels of performance and flexibility to enable IEEE 802.3af functionality in a powered device.
The unique controller supports non-isolated or isolated power supply topologies required by WLAN access point systems, IP phones and other systems, including flyback, forward or non-synchronous low-side buck topologies.
The TPS23750 can withstand voltage transients up to 100 V and operates over an industrial temperature range of -40º C to 85º C. In addition, the controller is housed in a PowerPad(TM) package with an internal 0.7-ohm FET to minimize heat dissipation in the system. The TPS23750 also protects the powered system through thermal shutdown and current limiting.
The integrated device relies on a tiny external resistor to set the switching frequency, allowing greater flexibility for power stage component selection. A fixed 140-mA of in-rush current limit also eases powered device startup. The TPS23750's power conversion functionality includes many additional protection features, such as programmable soft start, hiccup-type fault limiting, a 50 percent maximum duty cycle and a true-voltage output error amplifier.
To meet power requirements of certain legacy systems not fully 802.3af-compliant, TI also announced its TPS23770 integrated PD controller, which includes an under-voltage lockout turn-on voltage that is compatible to legacy systems.
