Description
The Si3461 is a single-port power management controller for IEEE
802.3at-compliant Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE). The Si3461 can
be powered from a 50 V input using a shunt regulator, or, to save
power, it can be powered from 50 V and 3.3 V power supplies. The
IEEE-required Powered Device (PD) detection feature uses a robust
3-point algorithm to avoid false detection events. The Si3461's
reference design kit also provides full IEEE-compliant classification
and PD disconnect. Intelligent protection circuitry includes input under-
voltage lockout (UVLO), classification-based current limiting, and
output short-circuit protection. The Si3461 is designed to operate
completely independently of host processor control. An LED status
signal is provided to indicate the port status, including detection,
power good, and output fault event information. The Si3461 is pin-
programmable to support four available power levels, endpoint and
mid-span applications, and auto-retry or restart after disconnect
functions. A comprehensive reference design kit is available (Si3461-
EVB), including a complete schematic and bill of materials.
