MAX5952
Description
The MAX5952 is a quad -48V power controller designed for use in IEEE® 802.3af-compliant/pre-IEEE 802.3at-compatible power-sourcing equipment (PSE). This device provides powered device (PD) discovery, classification, current limit, DC and AC load disconnect detections in pliance with the IEEE 802.3af standard.
Key Features
- The MAX5952 features high-power mode that provides up to 45W per port
- The MAX5952 provides instantaneous readout of each port current through the I2C interface
- The MAX5952 also provides high-capacitance detection for legacy PDs
- The device features an I2C-compatible, 3-wire serial interface, and is fully software configurable and programmable
- The class-overcurrent detection function enables system power management to detect if a PD dra
