IEEE 802.3af/at-Compliant, Powered Device Interface
Controllers with Integrated Power MOSFET
MAX5969A/MAX5969B
General Description
The MAX5969A/MAX5969B provide a complete interface
for a powered device (PD) to comply with the IEEE®
802.3af/at standard in a power-over-Ethernet (PoE) sys-
tem. The MAX5969A/MAX5969B provide the PD with a
detection signature, classification signature, and an inte-
grated isolation power switch with inrush current control.
During the inrush period, the MAX5969A/MAX5969B limit
the current to less than 180mA before switching to the
higher current limit (720mA to 880mA) when the isolation
power MOSFET is fully enhanced. The devices feature
an input UVLO with wide hysteresis and long deglitch
time to compensate for twisted-pair cable resistive drop
and to assure glitch-free transition during power-on/-off
conditions. The MAX5969A/MAX5969B can withstand up
to 100V at the input.
The MAX5969A/MAX5969B support a 2-event classifica-
tion method as specified in the IEEE 802.3at standard
and provide a signal to indicate when probed by Type 2
power-sourcing equipment (PSE). The devices detect
the presence of a wall adapter power-source connec-
tion and allow a smooth switchover from the PoE power
source to the wall power adapter.
The MAX5969A/MAX5969B also provide a power-good
(PG) signal, two-step current limit and foldback, over-
temperature protection, and di/dt limit.
The MAX5969A/MAX5969B are available in a space-sav-
ing, 10-pin, 3mm x 3mm, TDFN power package. These
devices are rated over the -40NC to +85NC extended
temperature range.

Pin Description
PIN NAME FUNCTION
1 VDD Positive Supply Input. Connect a 68nF (min) bypass capacitor between VDD and VSS.
2 DET Detection Resistor Input. Connect a signature resistor (RDET = 24.9kI) from DET to VDD.
3 N.C. No Connection. Not internally connected.
4 I.C. Internally Connected. Leave unconnected.
5 VSS Negative Supply Input. VSS connects to the source of the integrated isolation n-channel power
MOSFET.
6 RTN
Drain of Isolation MOSFET. RTN connects to the drain of the integrated isolation n-channel power
MOSFET. Connect RTN to the downstream DC-DC converter ground as shown in the Typical
Application Circuit.
7 WAD
Wall Power Adapter Detector Input. Wall adapter detection is enabled the moment VDD - VSS crosses
the mark event threshold. Detection occurs when the voltage from WAD to RTN is greater than 9V.
When a wall power adapter is present, the isolation n-channel power MOSFET turns off, 2EC current
sink turns on. Connect WAD directly to RTN when the wall power adapter or other auxiliary power
source is not used.
8 PG
Open-Drain Power-Good Indicator Output. PG sinks 230FA to disable the downstream DC-DC converter
while turning on the hot-swap MOSFET switch until the hot-swap switch is fully on. PG current sink is
disabled during detection, classification, and in the steady-state power mode.
92EC
Active-Low 2-Event Classification Detect or Wall Adapter Detect Output. A 1.5mA current sink is
enabled at 2EC when a Type 2 PSE or a wall adapter is detected. When powered by a Type 2 PSE, the
2EC current sink is enabled and latched low after the isolation MOSFET is fully on until VIN drops below
the UVLO threshold. 2EC also asserts when a wall adapter supply, typically greater than 9V, is applied
between WAD and RTN. 2EC is not latched if asserted by WAD.
10 CLS
Classification Resistor Input. Connect a resistor (RCLS) from CLS to VSS to set the desired classification
current. See the classification current specifications in the Electrical Characteristics table to find the resis-
tor value for a particular PD classification.
–– EP
Exposed Pad. Do not use EP as an electrical connection to VSS. EP is internally connected to VSS
through a resistive path and must be connected to VSS externally. To optimize power dissipation, solder
the exposed pad to a large copper power plane.

Detailed Description
Operating Modes
Depending on the input voltage (VIN = VDD - VSS), the
MAX5969A/MAX5969B operate in four different modes:
PD detection, PD classification, mark event, and PD
power. The devices enter PD detection mode when the
input voltage is between 1.4V and 10.1V. The device
enters PD classification mode when the input voltage is
between 12.6V and 20V. The device enters PD power
mode once the input voltage exceeds VON.
Detection Mode (1.4V VIN 10.1V)
In detection mode, the PSE applies two voltages on VIN
in the range of 1.4V to 10.1V (1V step minimum) and
then records the current measurements at the two points.
The PSE then computes DV/DI to ensure the presence
of the 24.9 signature resistor. Connect the signature
resistor (RDET) from VDD to DET for proper signature
detection. The MAX5969A/MAX5969B pull DET low in
detection mode. DET goes high impedance when the
input voltage exceeds 12.5V. In detection mode, most of
the MAX5969A/MAX5969B internal circuitry is off and the
offset current is less than 10µA.
If the voltage applied to the PD is reversed, install pro-
tection diodes at the input terminal to prevent internal
damage to the MAX5969A/MAX5969B (see the Typical
Application Circuit). Since the PSE uses a slope tech-
nique (DV/DI) to calculate the signature resistance, the
DC offset due to the protection diodes is subtracted and
does not affect the detection process.
Classification Mode (12.6V VIN 20V)
In the classification mode, the PSE classifies the PD
based on the power consumption required by the PD. This
allows the PSE to efficiently manage power distribution.
Class 0 to 5 is defined as shown in Table 1. (The IEEE
802.3af/at standard defines only Class 0 to 4 and Class 5
for any special requirement.) An external resistor (RCLS)
connected from CLS to VSS sets the classification current.
The PSE determines the class of a PD by applying a volt-
age at the PD input and measuring the current sourced
out of the PSE. When the PSE applies a voltage between
12.6V and 20V, the MAX5969A/MAX5969B exhibit a cur-
rent characteristic with a value shown in Table 1. The
PSE uses the classification current information to classify
the power requirement of the PD. The classification cur-
rent includes the current drawn by RCLS and the supply
current of the MAX5969A/MAX5969B so the total current
drawn by the PD is within the IEEE 802.3af/at standard
figures. The classification current is turned off whenever
the device is in power mode.
2-Event Classification and Detection
During 2-event classification, a Type 2 PSE probes PD
for classification twice. In the first classification event,
the PSE presents an input voltage between 12.6V and
20V and the MAX5969A/MAX5969B present the pro-
grammed load ICLASS. The PSE then drops the probing
voltage below the mark event threshold of 10.1V and
the MAX5969A/MAX5969B present the mark current
(IMARK). This sequence is repeated one more time.

______________________________________________________________________________________ 11
When the MAX5969A/MAX5969B are powered by a Type 2
PSE, the 2-event identification output 2EC asserts low
after the internal isolation n-channel MOSFET is fully
turned on. 2EC current sink is turned off when VDD goes
below the UVLO threshold (VOFF) and turns on when
VDD goes above the UVLO threshold (VON), unless VDD
goes below VTHR to reset the latched output of the Type 2
PSE detection flag.
Alternatively, the 2EC output also serves as a wall adapt-
er detection output when the MAX5969A/MAX5969B are
powered by an external wall power adapter. See the Wall
Power Adapter Detection and Operation section for more
information.
Power Mode (Wake Mode)
The MAX5969A/MAX5969B enter power mode when VIN
rises above the undervoltage lockout threshold (VON).
When VIN rises above VON, the MAX5969A/MAX5969B
turn on the internal n-channel isolation MOSFET to con-
nect VSS to RTN with inrush current limit internally set
to 135mA (typ). The isolation MOSFET is fully turned on
when the voltage at RTN is near VSS and the inrush cur-
rent is reduced below the inrush limit. Once the isolation
MOSFET is fully turned on, the MAX5969A/MAX5969B
change the current limit to 800mA. The open-drain
power-good output (PG) remains low for a minimum of
tDELAY until the power MOSFET fully turns on to keep the
downstream DC-DC converter disabled during inrush.
Undervoltage Lockout
The MAX5969A/MAX5969B operate up to a 60V sup-
ply voltage with a turn-on UVLO threshold (VON) at
35.4V/38.6V and a turn-off UVLO threshold (VOFF) at 31V.
When the input voltage is above VON, the MAX5969A/
MAX5969B enter power mode and the internal MOSFET
is turned on. When the input voltage goes below VOFF for
more than tOFF_DLY, the MOSFET turns off.
Power-Good Output
An open-drain output (PG) is used to allow disabling
downstream DC-DC converter until the n-channel isola-
tion MOSFET is fully turned on. PG is pulled low to VSS
for a period of tDELAY and until the internal isolation
MOSFET is fully turned on. The PG is also pulled low
when coming out of thermal shutdown.
Thermal-Shutdown Protection
The MAX5969A/MAX5969B include thermal protection
from excessive heating. If the junction temperature
exceeds the thermal-shutdown threshold of +140NC,
the MAX5969A/MAX5969B turn off the internal power
MOSFET and 2EC current sink. When the junction tem-
perature falls below +112NC, the devices enter inrush
mode and then return to power mode. Inrush mode
ensures the downstream DC-DC converter is turned off
as the internal power MOSFET is turned on.
Wall Power Adapter Detection
and Operation
For applications where an auxiliary power source such
as a wall power adapter is used to power the PD,
the MAX5969A/MAX5969B feature wall power adapter
detection. Once the input voltage (VDD - VSS) exceeds
the mark event threshold, the MAX5969A/MAX5969B
enable wall adapter detection. The wall power adapt-
er is connected from WAD to RTN. The MAX5969A/
MAX5969B detect the wall power adapter when the
voltage from WAD to RTN is greater than 9V. When a
wall power adapter is detected, the internal n-channel
isolation MOSFET turns off, 2EC current sink turns on,
and classification current is disabled if VIN is in the clas-
sification range.

Layout Procedure
Careful PCB layout is critical to achieve high efficiency
and low EMI. Follow these layout guidelines for optimum
performance:
1) Place the input capacitor, classification resistor, and
transient voltage suppressor as close as possible to
the MAX5969A/MAX5969B.
2) Use large SMT component pads for power dissipat-
ing devices such as the MAX5969A/MAX5969B and
the external diodes.
3) Use short and wide traces for high-power paths.
4) Use the MAX5969 Evaluation Kit layout as a refer-
ence.
