QUICK START GUIDE FOR DEMONSTRATION CIRCUIT 859
MULTIPLE OUTPUT PD
LTC4267
DESCRIPTION
Demonstration circuit 859 is a Multiple Output PD fea-
turing the LTC4267. The board provides a complete
IEEE 802.3af power device (PD) interface and isolated
power supply solution for use in Power over Ethernet
(PoE) applications. It generates 1.8V @ 2.5A, 2.5V @
1.5A and 3.3V @ 0.5A.
The LTC4267 integrates the 25kΩ signature resistor,
classification current source, thermal overload protec-
tion, signature disable and power good signal along with
an undervoltage lockout optimized for use with the IEEE
required diode bridge. The precision dual level input
current limit allows the LTC4267 to charge load capaci-
tors and interface with legacy PoE systems.

The LTC4267 combines the above features with a cur-
rent mode switching controller designed for driving a 6V
rated N-channel MOSFET. It features programmable
slope compensation, soft-start, and constant frequency
operation, minimizing electrical noise even with light
loads.

QUICK START PROCEDURE
Demonstration circuit 859 is easy to set up to evaluate
the performance of the LTC4267. For proper equipment
setup, refer to figure 1 and follow the procedure below:
1. With the power source to the PSE turned off, con-
nect the input power supply to the board through the
J1 filtered Ethernet connector.
2. In addition to a PSE, the DC859 board can be pow-
ered by an alternate input power supply through the
V+ (TP5) and VPORTN (TP14) terminals. Do not
connect more than one power source.
3. Set the SIGNATURE jumper (JP1) to the ENABLE
position.
4. Turn on the PSE or alternate input power supply and
increase the voltage until the power converter turns
on. Be careful not to exceed 57VDC. NOTE: Make
sure that the input voltage does not exceed 57VDC.
If a higher voltage is required, power components
with higher voltage ratings should be used.
5. Verify proper classification and signature detection.
6. Check the output voltages. They should be as listed
in table 1. If there is no output, temporarily discon-
nect the load to make sure that the load is not set
too high.
7. Once the proper output voltage is established, adjust
the load current within the appropriate range and
observe the output regulation, ripple voltage, effi-
ciency and other parameters.
OPERATION
Demonstration circuit 859 interfaces with a customer’s
Power-Over-Ethernet test setup per Figure 1. The front
end of the demo circuit implements the required
Ethernet input interface transformer coupling and
common-mode termination through the integrated
connector J1. The demonstration circuit is set up to
allow data to pass in and back out of the demo circuit
while the DC859 performs IEEE 802.3af interface func-
tions. The Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) is con-
nected to J1 and the PHY is optionally connected to
J2.
The PD is required to have 0.1uF of capacitance during
detection; this is provided by C2. It is also required to
have at least 5uF of capacitance after the in-rush cir-
cuit, provided by capacitors C1 and C9.
This demo circuit allows detection and power classifi-
cation of the PD per the IEEE 802.3af specification.
During the detection process of a PD, the LTC4267
displays the proper 25kΩ signature resistor. Signa-
ture detection may be disabled, if so desired, by set-
ting the SIGNATURE jumper (JP1) to the DISABLE po-
sition. If signature classification is disabled, all inter-
face functions of the LTC4267 are disabled. Signature
detection, classification and the internal power
MOSFET switch are all disabled.
Classification is programmed by the selection of a sin-
gle external resistor, RClass, connected to the RCLASS
pin on the LTC4267.
After detection and classification, the PD is powered
up when the input voltage exceeds the LTC4267 turn-
on under-voltage lock out (UVLO) through a dual-level
current-limited power switch. While the voltage be-
tween POUT and VPORTN is above the Power Good
trip point, the amperage through the power switch is
held below the low-level current limit. When the volt-
age between POUT and VPORTN falls below the Power
2

MULTIPLE OUTPUT PD
Good trip point, the Power Good signal goes active
low and the amperage through the power switch is
held below the high-level current limit.
For the PD to remain powered on, it must present to
the PSE both AC and DC components of the Maintain
Power Signature (MPS). The PD must hold the DC
MPS by drawing at least 10mA or the PSE may dis-
connect power. The DC859 demo board does not im-
plement a discrete minimum load. The synchronous
switching design satisfies the requirement.
The synchronous Flyback converter operates at a typi-
cal switching frequency of 200kHz, controlled by the
current mode controller portion of the LT4267. Gal-
vanic isolation is achieved through transformer T1 and
opto-isolator ISO2.
The primary side power path is comprised of C1, C9,
½ of T1, Q2, and R11. These components should be
as close to each other as possible when laying out the
printed circuit board. The secondary side power path
for the 1.8V output is made up of part of T1, Q5, and
C4. The 2.5V power path is made up of part of T1, Q4,
C6 and C7. The 3.3V power path is made up of part of
T1, Q6, C11 ad C12. These parts, as grouped in the
above description, should also be laid out as close to
each other as possible, without overlapping any of the
circuitry or traces of the primary side.
IN ORDER TO ENSURE PROPER OPERATION, THE
DESIGNER MUST ENSURE THAT THE PD INPUT
CURRENT REQUIREMENT DOES NOT EXCEED THE
LTC4267 CURRENT LIMIT OVER THE UNIT’S
OPERATING VOLTAGE RANGE.
