Product details
Overview
The MAX5982AETE+T from Analog Devices is an IEEE 802.3af/at-compliant powered device (PD) interface controller with integrated 70W isolation MOSFET, 182mA inrush current limit, 1900mA normal operating current limit, and 100V absolute maximum input rating. It enables PoE-powered IP phones, security cameras, and wireless access nodes to safely negotiate power classification, manage wall-adapter switchover, and maintain MPS during ultra-low-power sleep.
For engineers reviewing the MAX5982AETE+T datasheet, MAX5982AETE+T pinout, MAX5982AETE+T application, or MAX5982AETE+T equivalent, key selection criteria include 2-event classification support, dual sleep modes with LED driver, thermal shutdown at +150°C, and TQFN-16 package compatibility with PoE midspan/PSE systems requiring robust inrush control and auxiliary power detection.
Technical Context
The MAX5982AETE+T implements a two-stage PoE power-up sequence: first enforcing ≤182mA inrush current until RTN voltage stabilizes near VSS, then switching to 1700–2100mA operational current limit. Its UVLO features 35.4V turn-on threshold with 4.2V hysteresis and 30–120µs deglitch time to reject cable-resistive drop artifacts.
It supports IEEE 802.3at Type 2 classification via mark/reset event detection (10.7V mark threshold, 3.8V reset threshold), latches 2EC output for PSE identification, and integrates a programmable LED driver (250Hz, 25% duty cycle, 10–20mA amplitude set by RSL) active only in sleep/ULP modes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | Operates from 35.4V to 60V; 100V absolute max withstand protects against PoE transients. |
| Inrush Current Limit | ≤182mA during initial turn-on; prevents DC-DC converter overload before RTN stabilizes. |
| Normal Operation Current Limit | 1700–2100mA; sustains up to 70W PD load after inrush completes. |
| Classification Support | IEEE 802.3af/at Classes 0–5; uses external RCLS to set precise classification current per Table 1. |
| Sleep Modes | Two configurable states: normal sleep (PG low, LED pulsing) and ultra-low-power sleep (MPS maintained, <0.55mA IQ). |
| Thermal Protection | Shuts down isolation MOSFET at +150°C junction; resumes via controlled inrush at +120°C. |
| Package | 16-pin 5mm × 5mm TQFN; exposed pad soldered to VSS plane for θJA = 35°C/W thermal performance. |
Pinout & Package
MAX5982AETE+T is housed in a thermally enhanced 16-pin, 5mm × 5mm TQFN package with exposed pad (EP) connected externally to VSS. Pin 1 is top-left corner (notch-marked); EP must be soldered to a large copper ground plane for optimal power dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD (Pin 2) | Positive supply input | Connects to PoE input rail; requires ≥68nF bypass capacitor to VSS for UVLO stability. |
| DET (Pin 3) | Detection resistor input | Pulls low during detection mode; accepts 24.9kΩ signature resistor to VDD for IEEE-compliant ΔV/ΔI measurement. |
| RTN (Pins 7,8) | Drain of integrated isolation MOSFET | Connects to downstream DC-DC converter ground; carries full PD load current up to 2.1A. |
| WAD (Pin 9) | Wall adapter detector input | Detects >9V between WAD and RTN; triggers automatic switchover from PoE to auxiliary power. |
| PG (Pin 10) | Open-drain power-good indicator | Sinks 230µA during inrush/sleep to disable downstream DC-DC; high-impedance in steady-state power mode. |
| 2EC (Pin 11) | 2-event classification detect output | 1.5mA current sink asserted when Type 2 PSE detected or wall adapter present; latched for PSE identification. |
| CLS (Pin 12) | Classification resistor input | Accepts RCLS to VSS to program Class 0–5 current per IEEE table; disabled in power mode. |
| LED (Pin 13) | LED driver output | Sources 10–20mA pulsed current (250Hz, 25% duty) during sleep/ULP modes only; amplitude set by RSL. |
| SL (Pin 14) | Sleep mode enable input | Falling edge (MAX5982B) or 6s low (MAX5982A) initiates sleep; RSL sets LED current and defines SL logic threshold. |
| WK (Pin 15) | Wake mode enable input | Falling edge exits sleep/ULP modes; internal 2.5kΩ pullup ensures default wake state. |
| ULP (Pin 16) | Ultra-low-power sleep enable | Low assertion + SL trigger enables ULP mode; internal 50kΩ pullup maintains default high state. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 2-Event Classification Support | Enables IEEE 802.3at Type 2 PSE identification via mark/reset voltage thresholds (10.7V/3.8V), latching 2EC output for system-level status reporting. |
| Programmable LED Driver | Generates 250Hz, 25% duty-cycle current pulses during sleep; amplitude (10–20mA) set by external RSL resistor without additional timing components. |
| Dual Sleep Modes | Normal sleep reduces system power via PG assertion; ultra-low-power sleep maintains Maintain Power Signature (MPS) while drawing <0.55mA from VIN. |
| Robust Inrush Control | Two-stage current limiting: 182mA cap during initial turn-on, then seamless transition to 1900mA operational limit once RTN stabilizes near VSS. |
| Wall Adapter Switchover | Automatic, glitch-free transfer from PoE to auxiliary power when WAD-to-RTN voltage exceeds 9V; disables isolation MOSFET and asserts 2EC. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar powered device interface applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX5980ATJ+T | Lacks 2-event classification, ULP sleep, LED driver; 16-pin TQFN but no WK/ULP/LED pins; 100mA inrush limit. | Supports only IEEE 802.3af (Class 0–4); no wall-adapter detection or programmable LED; lower power capability (30W). | Select for cost-sensitive 802.3af-only designs where auxiliary power switchover and visual indicators are unnecessary. |
| TPS23754PWPR | TI part with integrated DC-DC controller; 100V abs max; no ULP sleep or LED driver; different pinout and classification algorithm. | Targets integrated PoE PD solutions with built-in flyback control; requires external MOSFET; no native wall-adapter detection logic. | Choose when combining PD interface and isolated DC-DC regulation in single IC; verify layout compatibility due to differing thermal and routing requirements. |
Compared with MAX5982AETE+T, MAX5980ATJ+T omits critical 802.3at features and visual feedback, while TPS23754PWPR trades standalone PD control for integrated power conversion-neither offers the same combination of 2-event classification, ULP sleep, and hardware LED signaling in a drop-in TQFN-16 footprint.

FAQ
What is the absolute maximum input voltage rating for the MAX5982AETE+T?
The MAX5982AETE+T has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 100V across VDD to VSS. This withstand rating protects against PoE transient surges and allows safe operation with legacy 57V PoE injectors. The functional operating range remains 35.4V to 60V, with UVLO turn-on at 35.4V and turn-off at 31V. Exceeding 100V may cause permanent damage per Absolute Maximum Ratings.
How does the MAX5982AETE+T implement 2-event classification for IEEE 802.3at Type 2 PSE detection?
The MAX5982AETE+T implements 2-event classification by responding to two distinct voltage thresholds during PSE probing: a mark event at 10.7V (±0.6V) and a reset event at 3.8V (±1.0V). When the PSE drops voltage below the mark threshold, the MAX5982AETE+T sources IMARK (0.25–0.85mA); upon second drop below reset, it latches the 2EC output low. This sequence confirms Type 2 capability and enables system-level PSE identification.
What is the function of the SL and ULP pins on the MAX5982AETE+T, and how do they differ between sleep modes?
On the MAX5982AETE+T, SL (Pin 14) initiates sleep mode: a falling edge (MAX5982B) or 6-second low (MAX5982A) triggers normal sleep. ULP (Pin 16) enables ultra-low-power sleep when held low *during* SL activation. Normal sleep draws ~0.55mA and asserts PG; ULP sleep reduces current further while maintaining MPS. Both modes activate the LED driver, but ULP sleep extends battery life in auxiliary-powered systems.
Can the MAX5982AETE+T automatically switch from PoE to a wall adapter, and what conditions trigger this?
Yes, the MAX5982AETE+T automatically switches from PoE to wall adapter when voltage between WAD and RTN exceeds 9V (with 0.35V hysteresis). This occurs only after VIN crosses the mark event threshold (~10.7V), ensuring PSE handshaking completes first. Upon detection, the isolation MOSFET turns off, 2EC asserts, and classification current disables-enabling seamless, glitch-free switchover without MCU intervention.
What thermal protection mechanisms does the MAX5982AETE+T provide, and how does recovery work?
The MAX5982AETE+T provides thermal shutdown at +150°C junction temperature, turning off the isolation MOSFET, LED driver, and 2EC sink. Recovery begins when junction temperature falls to +120°C (30°C hysteresis), re-entering inrush mode to safely restart the power sequence. This prevents cumulative thermal stress and ensures reliable operation in enclosed enclosures or high-ambient environments where the MAX5982AETE+T's 35°C/W θJA is critical.
