Features
• Features of the PM8805 PoE-PD interface:
– System in package integrating a double active bridge, a hot-swap MOSFET
and a PoE-PD
– Supports legacy high power, 4-pair applications
– 100 V N-ch MOSFETs with 0.2 Ω total path resistance for each active
bridge

– Internal high voltage start up regulator with 20 mA capability
– Programmable fixed frequency up to 1 Mhz
– Soft start up with adjustable time
– Soft turn off (optionally disabled)
– Dual 1 APK, low side complementary gate drivers
– GATE2 optionally turned off for reduced consumption
– 80% maximum duty cycle with internal slope compensation
– QFN 16 3x3mm package with exposed pad
Description
This reference design represents a 3.3 V, 20 converter solution ideal for various
applications including wireless access points, supplied with a PoE-PD interface and a
DC-DC active clamp forward converter.
The PoE-PD interface is based on the PM8805 system in package device with two
active bridges and an IEEE 802.3bt compliant Powered Device (PD) interface. It can
be used in all medium-to-high power 2P and 4P high efficiency PoE and PoE+
applications.
The DC-DC active clamp forward converter is designed around the PM8804 PWM
controller, which is an integrated solution for smart and efficient 48 V converters,
featuring a programmable oscillator for the switching frequency, adjustable slope
compensation, dual complementary low-side drivers with programmable dead time,
programmable soft start, soft turn off and a programmable current sense blanking
time.
