PM8801
High-efficiency, IEEE 802.3at compliant, integrated PoE-PD
interface and PWM controller
Datasheet
-
production data
Description
The PM8801 integrates a standard compliant
Power over Ethernet (PoE) interface and a
current mode PWM controller to simplify the
design of the power supply sections of all
powered devices.
HTSSOP24
The PoE/PoE+ interface incorporates all the
functions required by the IEEE 802.3at including
detection, classification, undervoltage lockout
(UVLO) and inrush current limitation.
Features
• IEEE 802.3at compliant PD interface
• Works with power supplied from Ethernet LAN
The PM8801 specifically performs IEEE802.3at
Layer1 hardware classification, providing an
indication of type 2 PSE successful detection to
the rest of the system.
cables or from local auxiliary sources
• Successful IEEE802.3at Layer1 classification
indicator
The PM8801 has been designed to work with
power either from the Ethernet cable connection
or from an external power source such as a wall
adapter, ensuring prevalence of the auxiliary
source with respect to the PoE interface.
• Integrated 100 V, 0.45 Ω, 1 A hot-swap
MOSFET
• Accurate 140 mA typ. inrush current level
• Programmable classification current
• Sleep mode with LED indicator and Maintain
The DC/DC section of the PM8801 features a
programmable oscillator frequency, an adjustable
slope compensation, dual complementary low-
side drivers with programmable delay time and
internal temperature sensor.
Power Signature (MPS)
• Precise DC current limit set at 640 mA typ.
• Integrated high-voltage startup bias regulator
• Thermal shutdown protection
The PM8801 targets high-efficiency conversion at
all load conditions supporting flyback, forward,
forward active clamp and synchronous
rectification.
• Current mode pulse width modulator
• Programmable oscillator frequency
• 80% maximum duty cycle with internal slope
compensation
