MAX5969A/MAX5969B
IEEE 802.3af/at-Compliant, Powered Device Interface
Controllers with
Integrated Power MOSFET
General Description
The MAX5969A/MAX5969B provide a complete interface
for a powered device (PD) to comply with the IEEE®
802.3af/at standard in a power-over-Ethernet (PoE)
system. The MAX5969A/MAX5969B provide the PD
with a detection signature, classification signature,
and an integrated isolation power switch with inrush
current control. During the inrush period, the MAX5969A/
MAX5969B limit the current to less than 180mA before
switching to the higher current limit (720mA to 880mA)
when the isolation power MOSFET is fully enhanced. The
devices feature an input UVLO with wide hysteresis and
long deglitch time to compensate for twisted-pair cable
resistive drop and to assure glitch-free transition during
power-on/-off conditions. The MAX5969A/MAX5969B
can withstand up to 100V at the input.
The MAX5969A/MAX5969B support a 2-event classifica-
tion method as specified in the IEEE 802.3at standard
and provide a signal to indicate when probed by Type 2
power-sourcing equipment (PSE). The devices detect the
presence of a wall adapter power-source connection and
allow a smooth switchover from the PoE power source to
the wall power adapter.
The MAX5969A/MAX5969B also provide a power-
good (PG) signal, two-step current limit and foldback,
overtemperature protection, and di/dt limit.
The MAX5969A/MAX5969B are available in a space-
saving, 10-pin, 3mm x 3mm, TDFN power package. These
devices are rated over the -40NC to +85NC extended
temperature range.

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.

Note 1:
Maximum power dissipation is obtained using JEDEC JESD51-5 and JESD51-7 specifications.
Note 2:
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

All devices are 100% production tested at T

The input offset current is illustrated in Figure 1.
Effective differential input resistance is defined as the differential resistance between V
DD
and V
SS
. See Figure 1.
Classification current is turned off whenever the device is in power mode.
UVLO hysteresis is guaranteed by design, not production tested.

shorter than or equal to t

Note 9:
In power mode, current-limit foldback is used to reduce the power dissipation in the isolation MOSFET during an overload
condition across V
DD
and RTN.
