TPS23754: ON/OFF PoE Control with connected to the hub

Part Number: TPS23754

Dear Specialists,

My customer has an inquiry about TPS23754 ON/OFF control method.

I would be grateful if you could advise.

--- 

We would like to turn ON/OFF the PoE power supply while connected to the PoE hub.

Generally, I think that POE turns off the power by pulling out the PSE side or LAN cable.
We are considering a method that can be turned on/off on the PD side with the LAN cable plugged in.

Looking at the datasheet, it seems that there is no simple EN pin.
Is there a terminal that can be controlled like the EN pin, or is it used to turn the IC ON/OFF?

I appreciate your great help in advance.

Best regards,

Shinichi

  • Hello Shinichi,

    You could use the APD pin. 

    Raising it above 1.5V will:

    • Internal pass MOSFET is turned off

    • Classification current is disabled

    • The LINEUV input is disabled

    • Maintain Power Signature (MPS) pulsed mode is disabled

    • TPH and TPL outputs are turned on (low state) if SCDIS is open

    • TPL duty-cycle becomes 75% if SCDIS level is low

    Alternatively you could use an optocoupler to change the resistance on the detection pin so that the PSE shuts off power.

  • Hi Michael,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I understand that when APD is used, TPS23754 can turn it on and off on the PD side.

    I'd like to confirm one point.

    The detection pin you mentioned is a DET pin?

    I appreciate your great help.

    Best regards,

  • Yes, the DET pin is the detection pin. Thanks!
