The DC1366B is configured like a midspan PSE with two

RJ45 connectors for each port such that gigabit Ethernet

data can pass through the board at full line rates while

DC power is injected by the LTC4266 on the OUT TO PD

side of the board.

Often one of the most challenging aspects of designing a

PSE system is the power management software; Linear

Technology makes the job easier with the fully-featured

LTC4266 register set and a QuikEval™ GUI software ap-

plication. The GUI allows the user full and easy access to

the LTC4266 register set with detailedcontextual help info.

LTC4266 example software is available only under a non-

disclosure agreement (NDA).

The DC1366B has increased surge protection and more

compact Hot Swap™ MOSFETs over the DC1366A.

Quick start proceDure

Figure 1 shows the basic setup. The LTC4266 requires

two power supply rails: VDD (nominally 3.3V) and VEE

(nominally –54V). The VDD supply can be provided by a

DC590 board or an external bench supply.

When running QuikEval on a Windows computer, the

DC590 is used to interface a USB port on the PC to the

I2C bus on the DC1366B. The DC590 also provides opto-

isolation of the I2C bus, and an isolated 3.3V supply to run

the LTC4266; the user need only provide the VEE supply.

Alternatively, the user can omit the DC590 and connect an

I2C master device to the DC1366B. If the DC590 is omitted

then a bench power supply must provide VDD.

For applications where I2C control is not required, the

LTC4266 features an AUTO mode allowing it to operate

completely autonomously.

Choose one of the setup procedures shown on the next

page, depending on whether or not the QuikEval GUI ap-

plication software is required.

Introduction

The DC1366B demonstrates the features and capabilities

of the LTC4266, a quad controller for IEEE802.3at Power

SourcingEquipment(PSE).The DC1366B providesa quick

and simple, fully compliant PSE solution requiring only

a VEE supply when used in conjunction with the DC590

USB-to-I2C interface board.

Supply Voltages

The IEEE802.3at standard requires the port output volt-

age of a type 2 PSE to be in the range of 50V to 57V. The

positive side is RTN and the negative side is VEE. The VEE

supply voltage should be in this range for the sake of

compliance; however, the LTC4266 is capable of operat-

ing with VEE down to 30V, the max undervoltage lockout

(UVLO) threshold.

Make sure to choose a VEE supply with enough power to

sustain all four ports at maximum load; if the total load is

too great for the power supply its voltage may drop below

the UVLO threshold, resetting the LTC4266 and shutting

off all the ports. The worst case is when all four PDs are

class 4: each class 4 PD may draw up to 600mA, totaling

2.4A. Therefore a VEE supply rated for at least 2.6A is

recommended.

The VDD supply should nominally be 3.3V but the LTC4266

is capable of operating over the range of 3.0V to 4.3V.

(The UVLO threshold for the VDD supply is typically 2.2V.)

The LTC4266 chip typically draws only 1.1mA from the

VDD supply; however, LEDs and other components on

the DC1366B board also draw current from VDD, so the

total load is typically 9mA to 26mA at 3.3V depending on

which LEDs are lit.

VDD to DGND Configurations

The DC1366B, LTC4266 VDD supply can be configured in

one of two ways. The default DC1366B configuration ties

the LTC4266 VDD pin to the AGND pin through a 0 Ohm

resistor R10. The DGND pin is at –3.3V below the AGND

pin. The DC1366B can also be configured for a +3.3V at

VDD relative to AGND by removing R10 and installing a

0Ω resistor at R9. This ties the LTC4266 DGND pin and

AGND pin.

Modes of Operation

The LTC4266 has four modes of operation:

nShutdown: Ports are shutdown, detection and clas-

sification cycles are disabled.

nManual:The port does not advance automatically from

detection to classification, to power on. It waits for

instructions from ahost controller via the I2C interface.

nSemiauto: The port automatically advances to clas-

sification after detecting a PD, but does not turn on

power to the PD until told to do so by from a host

controller via the I2C interface.

nAUTOPin High:The LTC4266 operatesautonomously.

AUTO Pin

The AUTO pin determines several aspects of the LTC4266

initial behavior. AUTO is sensed by the LTC4266 at power

up and after a reset.

If the AUTO pin is high then:

nAll ports come up in AUTO pin high mode. Any valid

PD will be turned on without software intervention.

nThe current-sense resistors are assumed to be 0.25Ω

(which they are on the DC1366B).

nHigh power is enabled. After the LTC4266 classifies a

PDit applies power and automatically sets ICUT andILIM

appropriately for the class. With high-power enabled a

class 4 PD will be able to draw up to 600mA without

being cut off.

If the AUTO pin is low then:

nAll ports come up in shutdown mode. A host controller

must take action in order to power up any PDs.

nThe current-sense resistors are assumed to be 0.50Ω;

a host controller must change this to 0.25Ω for correct

operation of the DC1366B.

nHigh power is disabled and is enabled by a host con-

troller.

operation

Endpoint vs. Midspan

The LTC4266 can be configured either for endpoint or

midspanoperation without software interventionby setting

the MID pin high or low respectively. (You must reset the

LTC4266 or cycle the power for the MID pin to be sensed.)

The only difference in the behavior of the LTC4266 is that

the detection back-off timer is enabled when midspan

operation is selected.

Each port can be configured individually as either endspan

or midspan via I2C commands.

The DC1366B is wired for Alternative-A, MDI-X (power is

injected on the data pairs of the CAT5/6e cable; positive

on pins 3 and 6 of the RJ45 connector, and negative on

pins 1 and 2). The original 802.3af standard required all

midspanstouseAlternative-B,but802.3atallowsmidspans

to use Alternative-A.

Disconnect Sensing

The LTC4266 employs DC disconnect sensing only. For

the sake of software backward compatibility with the older

LTC4259, the LTC4266 includes register bits for enabling

AC disconnect sensing, but these bits simply enable the

DC disconnect sensing.

Pushbutton Switches

The DC1366B includes several pushbutton switches to

facilitate experimentation with the LTC4266.

nThe RESET button (SW6) resets all ports just as if the

power supplies were cycled.

nThe Masked Shutdown (MSD) button (SW7) will turn

off any ports that have their corresponding mask bit

set in the MSD register.

nEach port has an individual shut down switch (SW2

through SW5 for ports 1 through 4 respectively).

Masked Shutdown

The MSD register can be used to pre-assign low-priority

to selected ports so they can be shut down quickly when

needed.

A PSE system design can utilize the MSD feature in various

ways. For example, a PSE system may include a circuit

that monitors the VEE supply; if it becomes overloaded

and the voltage begins to sag, the system can dump low-

priority ports by asserting the MSD pin. Shedding excess

load quickly may allow the VEE voltage to recover before it

reaches the UVLO threshold, thus avoiding shutting down

higher-priority ports.

I2C Addressing

The 7-bit I2C address of the LTC4266 is 010A3A2A1A0b,

where A3through A0are determined by pins AD3 through

AD0respectively.Onthe DC1366Bthese pins are controlled

by the quad DIP switch, SW1. The LTC4266 has internal

pull-up resistors on these pins, so with all four switches

of SW1 open the address will be 0101111b.

All LTC4266 chips also respond to the global address

0110000b regardless of the state of their AD3-AD0 pins.

I2C Bus Lines

The LTC4266 has separate pins for SDAIN and SDAOUT to

facilitate the use of opto-couplers. The DC1366B provides

test points for both SDAIN and SDAOUT to make it easy to

connect to any type of breadboard or development tools.

The DC1366B ties SDAIN and SDAOUT with shunt R11.

The DC590 includes pull-up resistors on the SDA and SCL

lines, while the DC1366B board has none. If the DC590

board is replaced by a different I2C master, the user must

make sure there are appropriate pull-up resistors on SDA

and SCL.

Interrupts

The LTC4266 includes an open-drain interrupt line for

signaling the host controller when it needs service. This

signal can be accessed on the DC1366B at the INT test

point. An LED is also included to indicate an interrupt.

Connecting Multiple DC1366B Boards

To use multiple DC1366B on a common I2C bus, simply

connect their J6 connectors together with ribbon cable

(14-conductor, 1mm pitch).

dc1366bf

DEMO MANUAL DC1366B

operation

Up to sixteen DC1366B can be controlled by a single I2C

master. Remember to set each board to a different I2C

address using the DIP switch.

The DC590 cannot supply enough current on VDD for more

than five or six DC1366B boards; an external VDD power

supply is recommended if more than five DC1366B boards

are connected together.

If a large number of DC1366B boards are connected to a

single VEE supply, be aware that banana patch cords are

only rated for approximately 14A. To avoid exceeding the

ampacity of the patch cords, the boards should be con-

nected in a star configuration rather than connecting the

boards in a chain.

QuikEval GUI Software

The QuikEval GUI application software is a powerful tool

for learning the LTC4266 registers. Also available is the

LTC4266NDASIsoftware interface data sheet that provides

further details on these registers.

Surge Protection

Ethernet ports can be subject to significant cable surge

events. To keep PoE voltages below a safe level and protect

the application against damage, protection components

are required at the main supply, at the LTC4266 supply

pins and at each port.

Bulk transient voltage suppression devices and bulk

capacitance are required across the main PoE supply

and should be sized to accommodate system level surge

requirements. The DC1366B diode D18 and capacitor C2

are example components for this protection at the main

PoE supply.

Each LTC4266 requires a 10Ω, 0805 resistor (R35) in se-

ries from supply AGND to the LTC4266 AGND pin. Across

the LTC4266 AGND pin and VEE pin are an SMAJ58A, 58V

TVS (D1) and a 1μF, 100V bypass capacitor (C64). These

components must be placed close to the LTC4266 pins.

Each port requires a pair of S1B clamp diodes: one from

OUTn to supply AGND and one from OUTn to supply VEE.

Thediodes at the ports steerharmful surges intothe supply

rails where they are absorbed by the surge suppressors

and the VEE bypass capacitance. The layout of these paths

must be low impedance.

Finally, the VDD logic supply and logic pins may also

require additional surge protection. Components D23,

C16, R36, D2, and C65 demonstrate surge protection

for VDD to DGND. For a positive VDD configuration where

VDD is +3.3V above AGND and DGND is tied to AGND, the

DC1366B has place holders at D28 and C66 for a 64V TVS

and high voltage capacitance from VDD to VEE.
