... LTC4257 APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO The LTC4257-1 is intended for use as the front end of a Powered Device (PD) adhering to the IEEE 802.3af standard. The LTC4257-1 includes a trimmed 25k signature resistor, classification current source, and an input current limit cir- cuit. With these functions integrated into the LTC4257-1, the signature and power interface for a PD that meets all the requirements of the IEEE 802 ...

... RJ45 connector on the PD. However, PD circuitry must include diode bridges between the RJ45 connector and the LTC4257-1 (Figure 2). The LTC4257-1 takes this into account by compensat- ing for these diode drops in the threshold points for each range of operation. Since the voltage ranges specified in ...

... PD. The LTC4257-1 compensates for the two series diodes in the signature path by offsetting the resistance so that a PD built using the LTC4257-1 will meet the IEEE specification. In some applications it is necessary to control whether or not the PD is detected. In this case, the 25k signature can be enabled and disabled with the use of the SIGDISA pin (Figure 3) ...

... MOSFET. The response of the LTC4257-1 will depend on the magnitude of the voltage step, the rise time of the step, the value of capacitor C1 and the DC load. For fast rising inputs, the LTC4257-1 will attempt to quickly charge capacitor C1 using an internal secondary current limit circuit. In this scenario, the PSE current limit should provide the overall limit for the circuit ...
