LT4275 PD Controller

The LT4275 from Analog Devices is a pin-for-pin compatible family of IEEE 802.3 and LTPoE++ powered device (PD) controllers.

The LT4275A employs a proprietary LTPoE++ classification scheme, delivering 38.7 W, 52.7 W, 70 W, or 90 W of power at the PD RJ45 connector. The LT4275A is fully compatible with IEEE 802.3. The LT4275B is an IEEE 802.3at compliant, Type 2 (PoE+) PD delivering up to 25.5 W.

The LT4275 internal charge pump provides an N-channel MOSFET solution, eliminating a larger and more costly P-channel MOSFET. A low R_DS(ON) MOSFET also maximizes power delivery and efficiency, reduces power and heat dissipation, and eases thermal design. Startup inrush current is adjustable with an external capacitor. The LT4275 also includes a power good output, on-board signature resistor, under-voltage lockout, and thermal protection. The LT4275A / LT4275B drives a single opto-coupler to indicate the power level of the attached PSE. Pin-selectable support for non-standard low voltage operation is provided. Auxiliary power override is supported with the AUX pin.
