Description

The PM8800A integrates a standard power over

Ethernet (PoE) interface and a current mode

PWM controller to simplify the design of the power supply sections of all powered devices.

The PoE interface incorporates all the functions required by the IEEE 802.3af including detection, classification, under-voltage lockout (UVLO) and in-rush current limitation.

PM8800A specifically targets PD with extended power requirement with respect to the limit imposed by the 802.3af standard, embedding a hot-swap MOSFET capable of sustaining twice the current of the 802.3af standard with a programmable DC current limit.

The integrated switching regulator has been designed to work with power either form the

Ethernet cable connection or from an external power source such as AC adapter.

The DC-DC section of the PM8800A features a programmable oscillator frequency, soft-start, slope compensation and embeds a voltage output error amplifier allowing use in both isolated and non isolated configuration.

Function

DC current limit.

A resistor between DCCL and VSS will set the current limit for the interface section of the PM8800A. It can be set to exceed the IEEE802.3af current limit.

Leave the pin open for standard IEEE 802.3af applications.

System low potential input.

System return for the PWM converter.

It is the drain of the internal hot-swap power MOSFET.

Output of the PWM controller. External power MOSFET gate driver output.

Output of the internal high voltage regulator.

When the auxiliary transformer winding (if used) raises the voltage on this pin above the regulation set point, the internal regulator will be switched off, reducing the controller power dissipation.

Power good, active low signal.

A high to low transition indicates that the inrush current phase has been completed, the internal hot swap MOSFET is fully closed and the SMPS portion of the PM8800A is activated.

Current sense input.

Current sense input for current mode control and over-current protection. Current limiting is obtained with a dedicated current sense comparator. If the CS pin voltage exceeds 0.5 V the GD pin switches low for cycle-by-cycle current limiting.

Leading edge blanking is implemented to mask current spikes.

The output of the error amplifier and input of the Pulse Width Modulator.

COMP pull-up is provided by an internal 2.5 k

Ω resistor which may be used to bias an opto-coupler transistor.

Feedback signal.

Inverting input of the internal error amplifier. The non-inverting input is internally connected to a 1.25 V reference.

If not used must be grounded to AGND.

Analog PWM supply return.

GND for sensitive analog circuitry including the SMPS current limit circuitry. Must be connected to GND to improve noise immunity.

Exposed pad.

Device description and operation

4 Device description and operation

PM8800A

The PM8800A is a monolithic device embedding an IEEE 802.3af compliant PD interface together with a current mode pulse width modulator to be used in all power over Ethernet powered devices.

In addition to the standard.3af features, PM8800A anticipates some features of the forthcoming.3at standard, specifically targeting appliances or systems requiring higher power with respect to the 12.95 W allowed by standard PSE.

The PD interface integrates the 24.5 k

Ω signature resistor used in detection and disabled during the rest of operating modes. Classification is done through an external resistor detached when classification is over, in order to save power.

The PM8800A integrates standard compliant UVLO thresholds to determine normal operating mode (UVLO rising) or recognize disconnection (UVLO falling).

A graphical representation of the voltage thresholds and hysteresis during all the operating phases is depicted in the following figure:

21V 23V 38.5V

Input voltage

For input voltages in the range 1.5 to 11.5 V, PM8800A exposes a 24.5 k

Ω resistance. After detection is over, the internal resistor is disabled and the external classification resistor is presented. When classification is over, the external resistor is disconnected and the

PM8800A wait for the input voltage to overpass the UVLO voltage.

The hot-swap MOSFET is specifically designed to have a low R

DSon

to contain the conduction losses and sustain up to 800 mA. A constant dissipated power method is used to limit the current in the in-rush phase. The integrated in-rush current limit controls in a safe manner the current flowing through the MOSFET, shortening the duration of the hot-swap event itself. Designers have the possibility to further limit the current in the in-rush by acting on the proper programming resistor.

Designers have the possibility to set the limit of the current through the interface during normal operation. For non standard application, this limit exceeds the 350 mA foreseen by the

802.3af and can reach up to 800 mA.

PM8800A Device description and operation

PM8800A can work with power either from PoE networks or from auxiliary sources - like AC adapters -. Alternative sources are present in PoE appliances where devices can work also outside the context of the PoE networks or to ensure normal operation even if PoE becomes unavailable. PM8800A limits the number of external components to handle the coexistence of both PoE and auxiliary supplies.

External sources can be connected so to exploit the in-rush current limitation provided by the MOSFET or enabling the PWM section, bypassing the interface section.

A state-of-the-art current mode pulse with modulator is embedded in the PM8800A to support low side single ended isolated and non isolated topologies. A high gain bandwidth product error amplifier is embedded for non isolated configuration.

PM8800A has a 80 % maximum duty cycle, featuring embedded slope compensation.

The PWM switching frequency of PM8800A is programmable with an appropriate resistor and it is also capable of working with an external clock reference.

5.1 Detection

In power over Ethernet systems, the PSE senses the connection to detect whether an IEEE

802.3af compatible device is plugged to the cable termination by applying a small voltage

(2.7 to 10 V) on the Ethernet cable and measuring in two successive steps the equivalent resistance. During this phase, the Powered Device must present a resistance between

23.75 k

Ω and 26.25 kΩ

PM8800A integrates a 24.5 k

Ω signature resistor to simplify the design of PoE powered

Device appliances and to reduce the overall component count.

Signature resistor is in series to a pass transistor (see

Figure 7

) used to disconnect the

resistor itself upon completion of the detection phase.

The value of the integrated detection resistance has been selected taking into account also the diode bridges typical voltage drop.

During detection, most of the circuits inside the PM8800A are disabled to minimize the offset current.

5.2 Classification

Classification process in the IEEE 802.3af standard is optional for the powered device. This feature allows PSE to plan and allocate the available power to the appliances connected to the PoE network. IEEE 802.3af specification groups the need for power of the PD in 5 classes, one is reserved for future use. After successful detection, the PSE sets a constant voltage between 15.5 V and 20.5 V for a maximum duration of 75 ms and senses the current flowing through the cable to determine the PD's class.

The relevant thresholds in PM8800A are 11.5 V and 23 V, with a turn off hysteresis of 1.4 V.

To support the classification function, an equivalent programmable constant current generator has been implemented. The following figure depicts a principle schematic of the classification circuit. Just after the detection phase has been successfully completed, the voltage of the RCLASS pin is set to the 1.4 V voltage reference and a pass transistor connects the VIN pin to RCLASS pin.

After the classification is completed, the PSE raises the voltage to provide the Power

Devices with the negotiated power. During the transition from low to operating voltage, the internal UVLO is released and the hot-swap MOSFET is activated initiating the in-rush sequence.

The IEEE 802.3af standard sets a maximum turn-on voltage (42 V) and the minimum turnoff voltage (30 V) for the PDs and indicates normal voltage drops across the Ethernet cable.

The PM8800A implements the UVLO mechanism by setting 2 internal thresholds on the voltage across the VIN-VSS pins; one is to activate the hot-swap (V

UVLO_R

), while the other is to switch off the hot-swap MOSFET upon detection of a supply voltage drop (V

UVLO_F

) from normal operating conditions.

No additional external components are required to comply with the IEEE 802.3af requirements. Thermal protection alarm overrides the gate driving of the MOSFET immediately switching off the MOSFET itself in case of device overheating. The hot-swap is bypassed also in auxiliary source topology supplying directly the PWM and not requiring the hot-swap to be active.

In rush current limit

Once the detection and classification phases have been successfully completed, the PSE raises the voltage across the Ethernet cable. When the voltage difference between the VIN and VSS is greater than the V

UVLO_R

threshold, the internal hot-swap MOSFET is switched on and the DC-DC input capacitance is charged in a controlled way.

As depicted in the following figure, the current delivered by the hot-swap MOSFET during inrush period is a function of the voltage drop between GND and VSS (hot-swap drain source terminals). In more detail, the higher the voltage across the internal hot-swap, the lower the current flowing trough it, so that the total dissipated power is almost constant throughout the inrush phase, preventing the IC to reach the thermal protection limit.

The lower current limitation is internally set at 140 mA and takes action when the voltage

GND-VSS is above 30 V. The second limit is set at 250 mA when GND-VSS voltage is between 30 V and 15 V. When the voltage falls below 15 V, the limit switches to the higher

PM8800A PD interface

inrush current level, which is set by default at 440 mA. Connecting a resistor between VSS and AUXI_IRL it's possible to adjust this limit to a lower value.

The maximum inrush current can be set by programming the value of the resistor on the

AUX_IRL pin. Depending on the chosen value there could be 3 steps (when the selected max current is between 250 and 400 mA), 2 steps (when the selected max current is between 140 and 250 mA) or a single step.

Depending on the application, care must be put on the choice of the inrush current limit to avoid that the voltage drop on the external Ethernet cable will cause UVLO conditions during the charging phase of the bulk capacitor.

It is recommended to select this voltage drop (20

Ω max for 100 m of cable x I inrush) to be lower than the UVLO hysteresis ( 7 V) in order to avoid hiccup turn on.

Continuos current limitation

PM8800A provide a default continuos current limitation of 440 mA. This is achieved by leaving the pin DCCDL floating. A different DC current limit can be set by connecting a resistor between DCCL and VSS whose value can be obtained by the following equation:

800 mA. Practical resistor value ranges between 15 k

Ω and 75 kΩ.

5.6 HV regulator startup

PM8800A embeds a high voltage start-up regulator to provide a controlled reference voltage of 8.3 V to the Current mode PWM during its start-up phase.

The regulator output is connected to the VCC pin as well as to the DC DC section

In normal isolated topology, the VCC pin is diode connected to the auxiliary winding of the transformer used for the flyback or forward configuration. When the voltage from the transformer exceeds the regulated voltage, the high voltage regulator is shut off, reducing the amount of power dissipated inside the PM8800A.

The external auxiliary voltage must higher then 8.3 V but must be also lower than 15 V under all working conditions, to avoid the intervent of the internal protection clamp.

A VCC UVLO mechanism monitors the level of voltage on the VCC pin. When VCC voltage exceeds the VCC

UVLO_R

the PWM controller is enabled and it remains enabled until the

VCC voltage drops under its VCC

UVLO_F

value.

21/35

PD interface PM8800A

The PM8800A embeds a power good circuit that is used to indicate that PWM input capacitors are fully charged and that the switching regulator can start operation. The power good circuit monitors the status of the internal hot-swap MOSFET and nPGD, an active low signal is asserted when its V

DS

voltage falls below 1.5 V and V

GS

rise above 2 V. The power good circuit includes hysteresis to allow the PM8800A to operate near the current limit point without inadvertently disabling nPGD. The MOSFET voltage must increase to 3 V before nPGD is disabled.

An internal comparator monitors the status of the nPGD pin and the PWM controller will be running until the voltage at this pin goes above 2 V.

The power good indication is exposed at nPGD pin with a open drain, 45

Ω MOSFET so that board designers can put a LED and a series current limiting resistor from the VCC pin to the nPGD pin to indicate that the PD is powered from the PoE network.

Since the power good signal is internally used to activate the PWM controller, to avoid that transients on the input voltage could produce intermittent operation of the PWM controller, board designer can connect a capacitor C

PGD between the nPGD pin and GND. This will mask the nPGD signal for a duration that can be estimate by the following equation:

6.1 Error amplifier and loop compensation

The PM8800A addresses both isolated and non-isolated configuration by embedding a wide band high gain error amplifier.

In non-isolated topology, the voltage to be regulated is connected to the FB pin - the inverting input of the EA - through a resistor divider. The non inverting input of the EA is set to a fixed reference value of 1.25 V. The output of the error amplifier is connected to the

COMP pin which is pulled up internally with a 2.5 k

Ω resistor to a fixed reference of 3.3 V; loop compensation can be done connecting an appropriate compensation network between the FB pin and the COMP pin

The PWM switching frequency is equal to the programmed oscillator frequency.

PM8800A PWM section

The PM8800A can work also with a clock reference provided by an external source whose frequency is higher than the one programmed by the R

T

resistor. The presence of the external resistor is mandatory also when the reference is provided from outside the IC.

The external source must coupled to the RT with a 100 pF capacitor and have a minimum peak amplitude of 2.8 V. Minimum pulse width of 50 ns has to be assured for proper operation.

When synchronized the PWM frequency is equal to the external clock reference.

The soft-start feature of the PM8800A allows the load voltage to ramp-up in a safe and controlled manner. This is achieved by a 10

µA internal current source charging an external

C ss

capacitor connected to the SS pin, which progressively increases the duty cycle of the

PWM pulse, since the reference of the error amplifier is clamped with this value. Duration of the start-up time and external capacitor are linked by the following relation: t ss

SS voltage is actively kept at 2.3 V by the internal control circuitry, which manages also over-current and fault conditions.

PM8800A

PWM comparator / slope compensation

In typical isolated operation, current is sensed on a sense resistor Rs put between the source of the primary side MOSFET and GND pin, while for non-isolated topology it is often sensed on a proper resistor put on the source of a low-side MOSFET.

The PWM comparator produces the PWM duty cycle by comparing the Rs ramp signal on

CS with an error voltage derived from the error amplifier output.

The error amplifier output voltage at the COMP pin is offset by 0.7 V and then further attenuated by a 2:1 resistor divider before it is presented to the PWM comparator input.

The PWM duty cycle increases with the voltage at the COMP pin. The controller output duty cycle reduces to zero when the COMP pin voltage drops below approximately 0.7 V.

For duty cycles greater than 50 %, current mode control loops are subject to sub-harmonic oscillation. The PM8800A fixes the maximum duty dycle at 80 % and implements a slope compensation technique consisting on adding an additional fixed slope voltage ramp to the signal at the CS pin. This is achieved by injecting a 45

µA sawtooth current into the current sense signal path on an integrated 2 k

Ω resistor.

Additional slope compensation may be added by increasing the source impedance of the current sense signal with an external resistor between the CS pin and the source of the current sense signal. The net effect in this case is to increase the slope of the voltage ramp at the PWM comparator terminals.

The current sensed through the CS pin is compared to two fixed levels of 0.5 V and 0.7 V.

The lower level is used to perform a cycle-by-cycle current limit, terminating the PWM pulse.

In case of recurring overload a timing structure is activated through SS pin, sourcing a small current of about 1

µA on SS capacitor. The voltage on SS rises whenever during a PWM cycle an over current event occurs, while decreases to the default voltage (2.3 V) if it does not.

If SS voltage reaches 2.8 V, a slow hiccup is performed sinking 1

µA from SS, and shutting down the gate driver until the SS capacitor is fully discharged.

Then a new soft-start procedure is performed.

26/35

PM8800A

PWM section

Ch1 = 5Vout, Ch2 = SoftStart, Ch3 = VSS - GND, Ch4 = I input

When a severe over current occurs, like a short circuit of an internal power component, and

0.7 V level is reached on CS, the gate driver is instantaneously shut down and a fast hiccup cycle is performed. When the 10

µA sink current fully discharges the SS capacitor, a new soft-start procedure is performed.

In case of persistent severe over current, the control logic tries 4 cycles of fast hiccup before shutting down the PWM controller at all.

To restart the device, after removing the cause of over current, VIN must be lowered under

UVLO level.

Leading edge blanking

The sense current waveform often observes large spikes on the leading edge. This is due to rectifier recovery and/or interwinding capacitance in the power transformer. If not attenuated, this transient can prematurely terminate the output pulse. A simple RC filter - whose time constant is approximately equal to the spike duration - is usually adequate to suppress this spike.

An internal blanking time has been anyway integrated in order to prevent false overcurrent detection to terminate the PWM waveform. This is done by a masking logic, active for duration of 70 ns after the turn-on time of the primary side MOSFET.

PM8800A has a two level thermal protection referred to the internal junction temperature.

First limit is set to 130 °C and limits the current into the hot-swap MOSFET to 140 mA every time the voltage difference between VSS and GND is higher than 3 V.

The second limit is set to 160 °C and is always active. When this threshold is overtaken, the hot-swap is opened and the PWM controller is switched-off.

28/35

PM8800A Auxiliary sources

The majority of powered devices is designed to work with power from either PoE network or auxiliary sources. Even though having both sources simultaneously connected is not the normal operating case, the presence of an auxiliary supply allows PDs to be used also when the PoE is not available or not sufficient. This is particularly true for appliances requiring more than 12.95 W connected to 802.3af compliant PSE.

High degree of flexibility is granted by the PM8800A for designs based on external sources.

As depicted in the following figure there are two available options for connecting auxiliary sources to the PM8800A. One possibility consists in diode O-ring the auxiliary source into the PM8800A PoE pins (VIN and VSS) referred to "Option I ". In the second alternative, referred to "Option II" the external supply voltage is diode ORed into the PWM section of the device.

The two options differ for the in-rush and DC current protection, for the allowed auxiliary source voltage range, power sequence and prevalence of the external source with respect to the PoE one.

Option I configuration has been designed to take advantage of the inherent in-rush and DC current protection also when working with voltages from external power supplies.

When the auxiliary source is connected prior to PD detection by the PSE and has a voltage above the V

UVLO_R

(38-57 V), the internal UVLO is released and the MOSFET is switched on, starting the inrush phase. Inrush and DC current limit can be programmed by respective

external resistors see

Section 5.4

and

Section 5.5

.

Internal under voltage lock out threshold can be lowered by connecting the auxiliary source to the AUXI_IRL pin. Wall adapter with supply voltage lower than 38 V can be used, still profiting from the inrush and DC current limit provided by the hot-swap MOSFET.

The minimum external voltage to be used in this configuration is about 16 V.

The AUXI_IRL pin can be connected to the auxiliary source through a diode being the current internally limited to about 300

µA.

It is important to highlight that UVLO override and inrush current limit are mutually exclusive, and when UVLO is overridden, default inrush current limit is provided. The PSE will not detect the presence of a valid PD, since the PoE diode bridges are reversed biased.

When the auxiliary source is connected after the inrush phase, two possibilities arise depending on the voltage of the external power supply. If the voltage is lower than the one from PoE, the diode is reverse biased and PSE will keep on supplying the PD. If the auxiliary source has a voltage greater than the PoE, the PoE diode bridge will be reverse biased and auxiliary source will supply the PD. In case the voltages are comparable, current sharing occurs between the sources according to their respective source resistance.

The Option II configuration bypasses the PD interface and connects directly the external source to the PWM section. This type of connection is not limited by the internal current limit circuits and therefore is more suitable for lower auxiliary voltages.

Internal under voltage lock out threshold will be lowered by connecting the auxiliary source to the AUXII pin. The minimum external voltage to be used in this configuration is about

12 V.

Note that inrush current in this case is not limited and an external solution must be found: the simplest solution is to put a low value resistor in series, but this lower the converter efficiency. More efficient solution is the use of a MOSFET as power switch, able to limit the current during the charging phase, and to add only few milliohm in series during normal operation.

Main advantage of this connection is the "prevalence" over PoE voltage, that can be obtained pulling up AUXII pin with a R

AUXII

resistor and forcing a current into the pin greater than 100

µA (see following equation). In this case the PD interface is switched off regardless the presence of PoE voltage.

AUXII can be connected directly to the auxiliary voltage through a diode. The current in this case is internally limited to about 250

If a prevalent AUXII is detected the PD interface is switched off, the hot swap MOSFET is opened regardless the PoE voltage level.

PM8800A Auxiliary sources

If the current forced into AUXII pin is lower than 60

µA, the internal under voltage lock out threshold will be lowered but AUXII connection will be not prevalent to the PoE; in this case power to the DC/DC converter will be drawn from the source that has been applied first.

In case of very low auxiliary voltage (i.e. lower than 15 V) is recommended to supply VCC directly with the auxiliary voltage through a bypass diode, in order to assure a proper operation of the pwm section of PM8800A.
