TPS23754: SCH review

Part Number: TPS23754

Hi Team,

May I ask whether you could help to review customer's POE design?

SCHEMATIC1 _ P14_1_1POE.pdf

  • Hello,

    Currently the apps team is heavy on apps support, we may have comments early next week. However, if this is more urgent, can you help compare customer schematic with the TPS23754 EVM and let us know the differences? This way we can close the review sooner. Thanks!

    If this post answers your question, please indicate so by marking this thread as resolved. Thank you.

  • Hello Amelie,

    The schematic looks like a complete copy of the EVM for the most part. The only big difference is the 22uF cap on VC and the output 100uF Cap. These are ceramic in the customer design. I would increase the 22uF cap to 47uF if the customer must stay with ceramic, or change it to electrolytic. 

    The 100uF cap helps set the dominant pole and zero in the feedback control. The dominant zero is based on the ESR - so when the cap is switched to ceramic, it eliminates that zero. So the feedback loop will need to be adjusted. 

    If this post answers your question, please indicate so by marking this thread as resolved. Thank you.
