Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings  
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute  
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device  
reliability and lifetime.  
Note 2: This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended  
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction  
temperature will exceed 140°C when overtemperature protection is active.  
Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating junction  
temperature may impair device reliability.  
Note 3: All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device  
pins are negative.  
Note 4: The LTC4274 operates with a negative supply voltage (with respect  
to ground). To avoid confusion, voltages in this data sheet are referred to  
in terms of absolute magnitude.  
Note 6: The LTC4274 digital interface operates with respect to DGND. All  
logic levels are measured with respect to DGND.  
Note 7: Guaranteed by design, not subject to test.  
Note 8: The IEEE 802.3af specification allows a PD to present its  
Maintain Power Signature (MPS) on an intermittent basis without being  
disconnected. In order to stay powered, the PD must present the MPS for  
t
within any t  
time window.

INT: Interrupt Output, Open Drain. INT will pull low when  
any one of several events occur in the LTC4274. It will  
return to a high impedance state when bits 6 or 7 are set  
in the Reset PB register (1Ah). The INT signal can be used  
to generate an interrupt to the host processor, eliminating  
the need for continuous software polling. Individual INT  
events can be disabled using the Int Mask register (01h).

SHDN: Shutdown, Active Low. When pulled low, SHDN  
shuts down the port, regardless of the state of the internal

OPERATION  
Overview  
compared to alternative designs with on-board MOSFETs  
and increase system reliability in the event a single chan-  
nel is damaged.  
Power over Ethernet, or PoE, is a standard protocol for  
sending DC power over copper Ethernet data wiring.  
The IEEE group that administers the 802.3 Ethernet data  
standards added PoE powering capability in 2003. This  
original PoE spec, known as 802.3af, allowed for 48V DC  
power at up to 13W. This initial spec was widely popular,  
but 13W was not adequate for some requirements. In  
2009, the IEEE released a new standard, known as 802.3at  
or PoE+, increasing the voltage and current requirements  
to provide 25W of power.  
PoE Basics  
Common Ethernet data connections consist of two or four  
twisted pairs of copper wire (commonly known as CAT-5  
cable), transformer-coupled at each end to avoid ground  
loops. PoE systems take advantage of this coupling ar-  
rangement by applying voltage between the center-taps  
of the data transformers to transmit power from the PSE  
to the PD without affecting data transmission. Figure 10  
shows a high-level PoE system schematic.  
The IEEE standard also defines PoE terminology. A device  
that provides power to the network is known as a PSE, or  
powersourcingequipment,whileadevicethatdrawspower  
from the network is known as a PD, or powered device.  
PSEs come in two types: Endpoints (typically network  
switches or routers), which provide data and power; and  
Midspans, which provide power but pass through data.  
MidspansaretypicallyusedtoaddPoEcapabilitytoexisting  
non-PoE networks. PDs are typically IP phones, wireless  
access points, security cameras, and similar devices, but  
could be nearly anything that runs from 25W or less and  
includes an RJ45-style network connector.  
To avoid damaging legacy data equipment that does not  
expect to see DC voltage, the PoE spec defines a protocol  
that determines when the PSE may apply and remove  
power. Valid PDs are required to have a specific 25kΩ  
common-mode resistance at their input. When such a PD  
is connected to the cable, the PSE detects this signature  
resistance and turns on the power. When the PD is later  
disconnected, the PSE senses the open circuit and turns  
power off. The PSE also turns off power in the event of a  
current fault or short circuit.  
When a PD is detected, the PSE optionally looks for a  
classification signature that tells the PSE the maximum  
power the PD will draw. The PSE can use this information  
to allocate power among several ports, police the current  
consumption of the PD, or to reject a PD that will draw  
The LTC4274 is a third-generation single PSE controller  
in either an endpoint or midspan design. Virtually all nec-  
essary circuitry is included to implement a IEEE 802.3at  
compliant PSE design, requiring only an external power  
MOSFET and sense resistor; these minimize power loss

must assume that the PD is a 13W (full 802.3af power)

compatible) devices can be substituted with the LTC4274  
without software or PCB layout changes if only port 1 was  
used; only minor BOM changes are required to implement  
a fully compliant 802.3at design.  
Because of the backwards compatibility features, some of  
the internal registers are redundant or unused when the  
LTC4274 is operated as recommended. For more details  
on usage in compatibility mode, refer to the LTC4258/  
LTC4259A device datasheets.

several new features:  
• A PD may draw as much as 25.5W. Such PDs (and the  
PSEs that support them) are known as Type 2. Older  
13W 802.3af equipment is classified as Type 1. Type 1  
PDs will work with all PSEs; Type 2 PDs may require  
Type 2 PSEs to work properly. The LTC4274 is designed  
to work in both Type 1 and Type 2 PSE designs, and  
also supports non-standard configurations at higher  
power levels.  
Special Compatibility Mode Notes  
• The LTC4274 can use either 0.5Ω or 0.25Ω sense  
resistors, while the LTC425x chips always used 0.5Ω.  
To maintain compatibility, if the AUTO pin is low when  
the LTC4274 powers up it assumes the sense resistor  
is 0.5Ω; if it is high at power up, the LTC4274 assumes  
0.25Ω. The resistor value setting can be reconfigured  
at any time after power up. In particular, systems that  
use 0.25Ω sense resistors and have AUTO tied low  
must reconfigure the resistor settings after power up.  
• The Classification protocol is expanded to allow Type 2  
PSEs to detect Type 2 PDs, and to allow Type 2 PDs to  
determine if they are connected to a Type 2 PSE. Two  
versions of the new Classification protocol are avail-  
able: an expanded version of the 802.3af Class Pulse  
protocol, and an alternate method integrated with the  
existing LLDP protocol (using the Ethernet data path).  
TheLTC4274fullysupportsthenewClassPulseprotocol  
and is also compatible with the LLDP protocol (which  
is implemented in the data communications layer, not  
in the PoE circuitry).  
• The LTC4259A included both AC and DC disconnect  
sensing circuitry, but the LTC4274 has only DC discon-  
nect sensing. For the sake of compatibility, register  
bits used to enable AC disconnect in the LTC4259A are  
implemented in the LTC4274, but they simply mirror  
the bits used for DC disconnect.  
• The LTC4258 and LTC4259A required 10k resistors  
between the OUTn pins and the drains of the external  
MOSFETs. These resistors must be shorted or replaced  
with zero ohm jumpers when using the LTC4274.  
• Fault protection current levels and timing are adjusted  
to reduce peak power in the MOSFET during a fault;  
this allows the new 25.5W power levels to be reached  
using the same MOSFETs as older 13W designs.  
• The LTC4258 and LTC4259A included a BYP pin, de-  
coupledtoAGNDwith0.1μF.ThispinchangestotheMID  
pin on the LTC4274. The capacitor should be removed  
for Endspan applications, or replaced with a zero ohm  
jumper for Midspan applications.  
BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY  
The LTC4274 is fully software and pin compatible with the  
LTC4266 if only port 1 was used.  
The LTC4274 is designed to be backward compatible with  
earlierPSEchipsinbothsoftwareandpinfunctions. Exist-

Detection Overview  
Toavoiddamagingnetworkdevicesthatwerenotdesigned  
to tolerate DC voltage, a PSE must determine whether the  
connected device is a real PD before applying power. The

the must-accept and must-reject ranges. In particular, the  
PSE must reject standard computer network ports, many

Operating Modes  
The port’s operating mode determines when the LTC4274  
runs a detection cycle. In manual mode, the port will  
idle until the host orders a detect cycle. It will then run

another command.

In semi-auto mode, the LTC4274 autonomously polls the  
port for PDs, but it will not apply power until commanded  
to do so by the host. The Port Status register is updated  
at the end of each detection cycle. If a valid signature  
resistance is detected and classification is enabled, the  
port will classify the PD and report that result as well.  
Figure 11. IEEE 802.3af Signature Resistance Ranges  
4-Point Detection  
The LTC4274 uses a 4-point detection method to discover  
PDs. False-positive detections are minimized by check-  
ing for signature resistance with both forced-current and  
forced-voltage measurements. Initially, two test currents  
are forced onto the port (via the OUT pin) and the resulting  
voltages are measured. The detection circuitry subtracts  
the two V-I points to determine the resistive slope while  
removing offset caused by series diodes or leakage at  
the port (see Figure 12). If the forced-current detection  
yields a valid signature resistance, two test voltages are  
then forced onto the port and the resulting currents are  
measuredandsubtracted.Bothmethodsmustreportvalid

CLASSIFICATION

the PSE to indicate the maximum power it will draw while  
operating. The IEEE specification defines this signature as

Detection of Legacy PDs  
Proprietary PDs that predate the original IEEE 802.3af  
standard are commonly referred to today as legacy de-  
vices. One type of legacy PD uses a large common mode  
capacitance (>10ꢁF) as the detection signature. Note that  
PDs in this range of capacitance are defined as invalid, so  
a PSE that detects legacy PDs is technically noncompliant  
with the IEEE spec.

The LTC4274 can be configured to detect this type of

See the Reset and the AUTO/MID Pin section for more  
The 802.3at spec defines a Type 2 PD class signature as  
two consecutive Class 4 results; a Class 4 followed by a  
Class 0-3 is not a valid signature. In AUTO pin mode, the  
LTC4274 will power a detected PD regardless of the clas-  
sification results, with one exception: if the PD presents  
an invalid Type 2 signature (Class 4 followed by Class 0  
to 3), the LTC4274 will not provide power and will restart  
the detection process. To aid in diagnosis, the Port Status

The classification circuitry is disabled when the port is  
initially powered up with the AUTO pin low, in shutdown  
mode, or when the corresponding Class Enable bit is  
cleared.  
802.3at 2-Event Classification  
The 802.3at spec defines two methods of classifying a  
Type 2 PD.  
One method adds extra fields to the Ethernet LLDP data  
protocol; although the LTC4274 is compatible with this  
classification method, it cannot perform classification  
directly since it doesn’t have access to the data path.  
LLDP classification requires the PSE to power the PD as  
a standard 802.3af (Type 1) device. It then waits for the  
host to perform LLDP communication with the PD and  
update the PSE port data. The LTC4274 supports chang-  
POWER CONTROL  
External MOSFET, Sense R Summary  
The primary function of the LTC4274 is to control the  
delivery of power to the PSE port. It does this by control-  
ling the gate drive voltage of an external power MOSFET  
while monitoring the current via an external sense resis-  
tor and the output voltage at the OUT pin. This circuitry

to complete LLDP classification.  
The second 802.3at classification method, known as  
2-event classification or ping-pong, is fully supported by  
the LTC4274. A Type 2 PD that is requesting more than  
13W will indicate Class 4 during normal 802.3af classifi-  
cation. If the LTC4274 sees Class 4, it forces the port to a  
specified lower voltage (called the mark voltage, typically  
9V), pauses briefly, and then re-runs classification to  
verify the Class 4 reading (Figure 1). It also sets a bit in  
the High Power Status register to indicate that it ran the  
second classification cycle. The second cycle alerts the  
PD that it is connected to a Type 2 PSE which can supply  
Type 2 power levels.

while minimizing power dissipation in the MOSFET and

The LTC4274 is designed to use 0.25ꢀ sense resistors to  
minimize power dissipation. It also supports 0.5ꢀ sense  
resistors, which are the default when LTC4258/LTC4259A  
compatibility is desired.  
Inrush Control  
Once the command has been given to turn on the port,  
the LTC4274 ramps up the GATE pin of the port’s external  
MOSFET in a controlled manner. Under normal power-up  
circumstances, the MOSFET gate will rise until the port

through 9) show typical communication waveforms and  
their timing relationships. More information about the  
SMBus data protocols can be found at www.smbus.org.  
,
DIS  
Although not recommended, the DC disconnect feature  
can be disabled by clearing the DC Disconnect Enable  
bit. Note that this defeats the protection mechanisms  
built into the IEEE spec, since a powered port will stay  
powered after the PD is removed. If the still-powered port  
is subsequently connected to a non-PoE data device, the  
device may be damaged.  
The LTC4274 requires both the V and V supply rails  
DD  
EE  
to be present for the serial interface to function.  
Bus Addressing  
The LTC4274’s primary serial bus address is 010xxxxb,  
with the lower four bits set by the AD3-AD0 pins; this  
allows up to 16 LTC4274s on a single bus. All LTC4274s  
also respond to the address 0110000b, allowing the host  
to write the same command (typically configuration com-  
mands) to multiple LTC4274s in a single transaction. If the  
LTC4274 is asserting the INT pin, it will also respond to the  
alert response address (0001100b) per the SMBus spec.  
TheLTC4274doesnotincludeACdisconnectcircuitry, but  
includes an AC disconnect enable bit to maintain compat-  
ibility with the LTC4259A. If the AC Disconnect Enable bit  
is set, DC disconnect will be used.  
Shutdown Pin  
Interrupts and SMBAlert  
The LTC4274 includes a hardware SHDN pin. When the  
SHDN pin is pulled to DGND, the port will be shut off im-  
mediately. The port remains shut down until re-enabled  
Most LTC4274 port events can be configured to trigger  
an interrupt, asserting the INT pin and alerting the host  
to the event. This removes the need for the host to poll  
the LTC4274, minimizing serial bus traffic and conserving  
host CPU cycles. Multiple LTC4274s can share a common  
INT line, with the host using the SMBAlert protocol (ARA)  
to determine which LTC4274 caused an interrupt.

via I C or a device reset in AUTO pin mode.  
Masked Shutdown  
The LTC4274 provides a low latency port shedding fea-  
ture to quickly reduce the system load when required. By  
allowing a pre-determined set of ports to be turned off,  
the current on an overloaded main power supply can be  
reduced rapidly while keeping high priority devices pow-  
ered. Each port can be configured to high or low priority;  
all low-priority ports will shut down within 6.5ꢁs after the  
MSD pin is pulled low. If a port is turned off via MSD, the  
correspondingDetectionandClassificationEnablebitsare  
cleared, so the port will remain off until the host explicitly  
re-enables detection.

Power Supplies and Bypassing  
The LTC4274 requires two supply voltages to operate. V

a negative voltage of between –44V and –57V for Type 1  
PSEs, or –50V to –57V for Type 2 PSEs, relative to AGND.

shows a typical isolated serial interface. The SDAOUT pin  
of the LTC4274 is designed to drive the inputs of an opto-  
2
coupler directly. Standard I C/SMBus devices typically  
cannot drive opto-couplers, so U1 is used to buffer the  
signals from the host controller side.  
For simple devices such as small PoE switches, the isola-  
tion requirement can be met by using an isolated main  
power supply for the entire device. This strategy can be  
used if the device has no electrically conducting ports  
other than twisted-pair Ethernet. In this case, the SDAIN  
and SDAOUT pins can be tied together and will act as a

proven reliability in Type 1 and Type 2 PSE applications.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION  
Sense Resistor  
ESD/Cable Discharge Protection  
The LTC4274 is designed to use either 0.5Ω or 0.25Ω  
current sense resistors. For new designs 0.25Ω is recom-  
mended to reduce power dissipation; the 0.5Ω option is  
intended for existing systems where the LTC4274 is used  
as a drop-in replacement for the LTC4258 or LTC4259A.  
The lower sense resistor values reduce heat dissipation.  
Four commonly available 1Ω resistors (0402 or larger  
package size) can be used in parallel in place of a single  
Ethernet ports can be subject to significant ESD events  
when long data cables, each potentially charged to thou-  
sands of volts, are plugged into the low impedance of the  
RJ45 jack. To protect against damage, the port requires a  
pair of clamp diodes; one to AGND and one to V (Figure  
EE  
10). An additional surge suppressor is required for each  
LTC4274 chip from V to AGND. The diodes at the port

The port requires a 0.22ꢁF cap across its output to keep  
the LTC4274 stable while in current limit during startup  
or overload. Common ceramic capacitors often have sig-  
nificant voltage coefficients; this means the capacitance  
is reduced as the applied voltage increases. To minimize  
this problem, X7R ceramic capacitors rated for at least  
100V are recommended.
