OPERATION
more power that the PSE has available. The classification
step is optional; if a PSE chooses not to classify a PD, it
must assume that the PD is a 13W (full 802.3af power)
device.
New in 802.3at
The newer 802.3at standard supersedes 802.3af and brings
several new features:
• A PD may draw as much as 25.5W. Such PDs (and the
• The Classification protocol is expanded to allow Type 2
• Fault protection current levels and timing are adjusted
BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY
The LTC4266 is designed to be backward compatible with
earlier PSE chips in both software and pin functions. Exist-
ing systems using either the LTC4258 or LTC4259A (or
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 LTC4266 is designed
to work in both Type 1 and Type 2 PSE designs, and
also supports non-standard configurations at higher
power levels.
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).
The LTC4266 fully supports the new Class Pulse protocol
and is also compatible with the LLDP protocol (which
is implemented in the data communications layer, not
in the PoE circuitry).
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.
compatible) devices can be substituted with the LTC4266
without software or PCB layout changes; 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
LTC4266 is operated as recommended. For more details
on usage in compatibility mode, refer to the LTC4258/
LTC4259A device datasheets.
Special Compatibility Mode Notes
• The LTC4266 can use either 0.5Ω or 0.25Ω sense
• The LTC4259A included both AC and DC disconnect
• The LTC4258 and LTC4259A required 10k resistors
• The LTC4258 and LTC4259A included a BYP pin, de-
resistors, while the LTC425x chips always used 0.5Ω.
To maintain compatibility, if the AUTO pin is low when
the LTC4266 powers up it assumes the sense resistor
is 0.5Ω; if it is high at power up, the LTC4266 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.
sensing circuitry, but the LTC4266 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 LTC4266, but they simply mirror
the bits used for DC disconnect.
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 LTC4266.
coupled to AGND with 0.1µF . This pin changes to the MID
pin on the LTC4266. The capacitor should be removed
for Endspan applications, or replaced with a zero ohm
jumper for Midspan applications.
