TPS2388: TPS2388 can support the 802.3af?

Part Number: TPS2388

Hi,

can you confirm  TPS2388  is support for 802.3af?. as per the EVM schematic, the same design can support 802.3af also or not?

If any other software related changes required to change from 802.3at into 802.3af configuration?

If this IC is not suitable for the 802.3af, can u refer any other IC with same specs with  TPS2388.

  • Vignesh,

    IEEE802.3at supersedes, and is backward compatible with, IEEE802.3af equipment. As such, yes, the TPS2388 can power IEEE802.3af loads.
