The TPS23861 is an easy-to-use, flexible, IEEE802.3at PSE solution. As shipped, it automatically manages four 802.3at ports without the need for any external control. The TPS23861 automatically detects Powered Devices (PDs) that have a valid signature, determines power requirements according to classification and applies power. Two-event classification is supported for type-2 PDs. The TPS23861 supports DC disconnection and the external FET architecture allows designers to balance size, efficiency and solution cost requirements. The unique pin-out enables 2-layer PCB designs via logical grouping and clear upper and lower differentiation of I2C and power pins. This delivers best-in-class thermal performance, Kelvin accuracy and low-build cost. In addition to automatic operation, the TPS23861 supports Semi-Auto Mode via I2C control for precision monitoring and intelligent power management. Compliance with the 400-ms TPONspecification is ensured whether in semi-automatic or automatic mode. The TPS23861 is an easy-to-use, flexible, IEEE802.3at PSE solution.

The TPS2388 is an 8-channel power source equipment (PSE) controller engineered to insert power onto Ethernet cable according to IEEE 802.3at-2012 standard (or 802.3at). The PSE controller can detect powered devices (PDs) that have a valid signature, determine the power requirements according to the classification, and apply power through either one (Type -1) or two-event (Type-2) physical classification. The TPS2388 also has the flexibility to support UPoE and other non-standard loads. The Port remapping and the device pinout allow designers to enable 2-layer PCB designs and simplify software migration from previous generation PSE devices. The external FET architecture allows designers to further balance size, efficiency, thermal, and solution cost requirements. The current foldback reduces thermal stress on the external MOSFETs during startup and overload conditions allowing the use of cheaper FETs. The Fast Shutdown (OSS) input provides up to eight levels of per port shutdown priority for applications that require the immediate disabling of multiple ports.
