Product details
Overview
MAX5982CETE+T from Analog Devices is an IEEE 802.3af/at-compliant powered device (PD) interface controller with integrated 70W n-channel isolation MOSFET, 100V absolute maximum input rating, inrush current limit ≤182mA, and normal-operation current limit 1700–2100mA. It enables PoE-powered IP security cameras and wireless access nodes to safely negotiate power classification, manage wall-adapter switchover, and deliver power-good signaling.
For engineers reviewing the MAX5982CETE+T datasheet, MAX5982CETE+T pinout, MAX5982CETE+T application, or MAX5982CETE+T equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context on 2-event classification behavior, RTN-referenced voltage thresholds, thermal shutdown at +150°C, and TQFN-16 package layout constraints - all specific to the MAX5982C variant.
Technical Context
The MAX5982CETE+T implements a dual-stage PoE power-handling architecture: detection/classification logic operates across 1.4–20.5V input range using differential signature resistance (25.00kΩ ±0.55kΩ), while power mode activates above 35.4V UVLO turn-on threshold with 4.2V hysteresis. Its isolation MOSFET features 0.1–0.25Ω on-resistance (TJ = +25°C to +125°C) and supports foldback current limiting triggered at VRTN ≥7.0V.
Unlike MAX5982A/B variants, MAX5982CETE+T omits LED driver, SL, WK, and ULP pins - confirmed by pin configuration tables and block diagrams. It retains full 2-event classification support via 2EC output (1.5mA sink), wall-adapter detection at WAD-to-RTN ≥9V, and PG open-drain assertion during inrush (tDELAY = 90–102ms) and sleep states.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IEEE Compliance | Fully compliant with 802.3af (Class 0–4) and 802.3at (Class 0–5, 2-event classification) standards for PD interface. |
| Input Voltage Range | Operates from 35.4V (UVLO turn-on) to 60V; withstands 100V absolute maximum - accommodates PoE+ cable drop and transient surges. |
| Inrush Current Limit | ≤182mA during initial turn-on; prevents downstream DC-DC converter stress before MOSFET full enhancement. |
| Normal Operation Current Limit | 1700–2100mA (–40°C to +85°C); sets maximum continuous power delivery capability of integrated 70W MOSFET. |
| Thermal Shutdown | Triggers at +150°C junction temperature with +30°C hysteresis; forces MOSFET off and initiates safe inrush restart sequence. |
| Package | 16-pin TQFN (5mm × 5mm, exposed pad); θJA = 35°C/W enables high-power dissipation in compact PoE endpoint layouts. |
| 2EC Output Function | 1.5mA current sink asserted during Type 2 PSE detection or wall-adapter presence; latched for Type 2 until VIN drops below reset threshold (2.7–5.2V). |
Pinout & Package
MAX5982CETE+T uses a thermally enhanced 16-pin TQFN package (5mm × 5mm, 0.5mm pitch) with exposed pad connected externally to VSS for optimal heat dissipation. Pin 1 is top-left corner (marking dot adjacent), and EP must be soldered to a large copper plane.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 13–16 | N.C. | No internal connection; must remain unconnected per datasheet - not usable as ground or signal. |
| 2 | VDD | Main positive supply input; requires ≥68nF bypass capacitor to VSS for stable UVLO and detection operation. |
| 3 | DET | Detection resistor input; connects to 24.9kΩ signature resistor (RDET) between VDD and DET for IEEE-compliant ΔV/ΔI detection. |
| 4 | I.C. | Internally connected node; leave unconnected - no external circuitry permitted. |
| 5, 6 | VSS | Negative supply input and MOSFET source reference; ties directly to downstream DC-DC converter ground and EP. |
| 7, 8 | RTN | MOSFET drain terminal; connects to PoE transformer secondary center-tap and serves as voltage reference for WAD, 2EC, and PG. |
| 9 | WAD | Wall adapter detector input; asserts 2EC when voltage from WAD to RTN exceeds 9V - enables seamless auxiliary power switchover. |
| 10 | PG | Open-drain power-good output; sinks 230µA minimum during inrush delay (90–102ms) and sleep mode to disable downstream DC-DC. |
| 11 | 2EC | 2-event classification/wall-adapter detect output; 1.5mA sink activated on Type 2 PSE detection or WAD presence - used for system status indication. |
| 12 | CLS | Classification resistor input; connects to RCLS (e.g., 615Ω for Class 0) to set IEEE-defined classification current (0–64mA). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 70W Isolation MOSFET | On-resistance 0.1–0.25Ω over –40°C to +125°C enables high-efficiency power transfer without external FET or gate driver. |
| 2-Event Classification Support | Hardware-level implementation of IEEE 802.3at mark/reset event sequencing - eliminates need for external microcontroller coordination. |
| Wide UVLO Hysteresis & Deglitch | 4.2V turn-on/off hysteresis and 30–120µs deglitch time prevent false power cycling due to twisted-pair resistive drop or line noise. |
| Wall Adapter Detection | Dedicated WAD input senses >9V relative to RTN and automatically disables PoE MOSFET while asserting 2EC - ensures zero-interruption power handover. |
| Thermal Foldback Protection | Reduces current limit to 53mA when VRTN ≥7.0V during overload - limits MOSFET power dissipation and avoids thermal runaway. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar powered device interface applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX5982BETE+T | Includes SL, WK, ULP, and LED pins; supports sleep/ultra-low-power modes and LED status indication - absent in MAX5982CETE+T. | Required where low-power standby (MPS-compliant sleep) or visual status feedback is needed - not applicable for always-on endpoints. | Select MAX5982BETE+T only if sleep-mode functionality or LED driver is required; MAX5982CETE+T reduces BOM count and layout complexity for fixed-power applications. |
| LT4275IMS#PBF | Supports 802.3af/at with 100V abs max, but uses external MOSFET; lacks integrated 70W switch and WAD detection circuitry. | Suitable for designs needing higher voltage margin or discrete FET selection flexibility, but adds gate driver, layout, and thermal design overhead. | Choose LT4275IMS#PBF when external FET control or custom thermal path is mandatory; MAX5982CETE+T provides faster time-to-market with single-chip integration. |
Compared with MAX5982BETE+T and LT4275IMS#PBF, MAX5982CETE+T offers the most compact solution for always-on PoE endpoints by eliminating sleep-control pins and integrating the 70W MOSFET - reducing component count, PCB area, and thermal interface complexity without sacrificing 2-event classification or wall-adapter detection.

FAQ
What is the absolute maximum input voltage rating for MAX5982CETE+T?
The MAX5982CETE+T has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 100V across VDD to VSS. This rating allows it to withstand PoE transients, cable voltage drop, and surge events without damage, while its operational UVLO turn-on threshold remains at 35.4V - ensuring reliable startup under real-world Ethernet cabling conditions. The 100V rating is validated per Analog Devices' Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
Does MAX5982CETE+T support 2-event classification per IEEE 802.3at?
Yes, MAX5982CETE+T fully supports IEEE 802.3at 2-event classification. It implements hardware-based mark/reset event detection with thresholds of 10.7V (mark) and 3.8V (reset), and asserts the 2EC output as a 1.5mA current sink upon Type 2 PSE detection. This behavior is explicitly documented in the Electrical Characteristics and Detailed Description sections of the MAX5982A/B/C datasheet.
How does wall adapter detection work on MAX5982CETE+T?
MAX5982CETE+T detects wall adapters via the WAD pin referenced to RTN: when voltage from WAD to RTN exceeds 9V (with ±1V hysteresis), the device disables the internal isolation MOSFET, asserts 2EC, and disables classification current. This hardware-level detection enables seamless, glitch-free switchover without firmware intervention - confirmed in the Wall Power Adapter Detection section of the datasheet.
What is the purpose of the 2EC pin on MAX5982CETE+T?
The 2EC pin on MAX5982CETE+T serves dual functions: it acts as a 2-event classification indicator (1.5mA sink) when probed by a Type 2 PSE, and as a wall-adapter present flag when WAD voltage exceeds 9V. It is latched during Type 2 detection until VIN falls below the reset threshold (2.7–5.2V), enabling system-level status monitoring without additional logic - as defined in the Pin Description table.
What thermal protection features does MAX5982CETE+T include?
MAX5982CETE+T includes junction-based thermal shutdown at +150°C with +30°C hysteresis, plus current-foldback activation when VRTN ≥7.0V. Upon thermal trip, the isolation MOSFET, 2EC sink, and PG output are disabled; recovery begins only after junction temperature falls to +120°C, followed by controlled inrush restart. These protections are production-tested and specified in the Electrical Characteristics table.
