General Description
The MAX5971A is a single-port, power-sourcing equip-
ment (PSE) power controller designed for use in IEEE
®
802.3af/at-compliant PSE. This device provides powered
device (PD) discovery, classification, current limit, and
DC and AC load-disconnect detections. The MAX5971A
operates automatically without the need for any software
programming and features an integrated power MOSFET
and sense resistor. The device also supports new Class 5
and 2-event classification for detection and classification
of high-power PDs. The MAX5971A provides up to 40W
to a single port (Class 5 enabled) and still provides high-
capacitance detection for legacy PDs.
The MAX5971A provides input undervoltage lockout
(UVLO), input overvoltage lockout, overtemperature
detection, output voltage slew-rate limit during startup,
and LED status indication.
The MAX5971A is available in a space-saving, 28-pin
TQFN (5mm x 5mm) power package, and is rated for the
extended (-40NC to +85NC) temperature range.

Note 1:
Package thermal resistances were obtained using the method described in JEDEC specification JESD51-7, using a four-
layer board. For detailed information on package thermal considerations, refer to
www.maxim-ic.com/thermal-tutorial.
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
