Product details
Overview
PD39210R-010020 from Microchip Technology is a Generation 6 IEEE 802.3af/at Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) controller IC designed for integration with the PD39208 PSE manager. It supports up to 48 logical ports, delivers up to 30 W per 2-pair port, operates across –40°C to +85°C, and implements per-system power management-enabling compact, high-density PoE switches for enterprise and industrial infrastructure.
For engineers reviewing the PD39210R-010020 datasheet, PD39210R-010020 pinout, PD39210R-010020 application, or PD39210R-010020 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 32-pin 5 mm × 5 mm QFN package, I²C/UART host interface with 15-byte protocol, support for Fast PoE and Perpetual PoE, and compatibility with PD39208-based system architectures.
Technical Context
The PD39210R-010020 implements a firmware-defined PSE control architecture based on the SAM D21 core, executing pre-programmed 802.3af/at classification, detection, and power delivery sequences without requiring host intervention. It communicates with the PD39208 manager via a dedicated 1 MHz SPI interface (ESPI_MISO/ESPI_SCK/ESPI_xCS/ESPI_MOSI) and supports dual-mode host connectivity via configurable I²C or UART (19.2 kbps, 8N1).
Its hardware design includes dedicated pins for system-level coordination: xDISABLE_PORTS (active-low global port shutdown), xSys_OK (active-low system validity indicator), xINT_OUT (event-triggered interrupt), and xLED_LATCH/xLED_CS/xLED_OE for direct LED stream control. Power management is implemented at the system level-not per port-distinguishing it from PD69210/PD69220.
Key Specifications

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 11, 12, 14, 17, 19 | Reserved / NC | Not internally connected or functionally reserved-must be left open or pulled per datasheet guidance (e.g., Pin 2 pulled to 3.3 V via 10 kΩ). |
| 3 (xSys_OK) | System Status Output | Active-low digital signal indicating valid system operation; used to drive LEDs or notify host of fault-free state. |
| 4 (xDISABLE_PORTS) | Global Port Control Input | Active-low input that immediately shuts down all PoE ports-enables emergency power cutoff without host software involvement. |
| 5–8 (ESPI_MISO/SCK/xCS/MOSI) | PoE Manager SPI Interface | Dedicated 4-wire SPI bus to PD39208 manager; SCK runs at fixed 1 MHz; xCS requires external pull-up. |
| 13 (I2C_ADDR_MEAS) | Interface Selection & Address Input | Analog input determining UART vs. I²C mode and setting 7-bit I²C address (0x04 to 0x3C) via resistor divider. |
| 15–16 (UART0_TX/RX) | UART Host Interface | Full-duplex 19.2 kbps UART link using 15-byte command/reply protocol; RX requires external pull-up. |
| 21–22 (I2C0_SDA/SCL) | I²C Host Interface | Bidirectional I²C interface supporting 400 kHz clock; SCL requires host clock-stretch support and external pull-up. |
| 24 (xI2C_MESSAGE_READY) | I²C Response Ready Flag | Active-low handshake signal indicating controller has data ready for host I²C read-eliminates polling delays. |
| 25 (xINT_OUT) | Event Interrupt Output | Active-low open-drain output asserted on pre-configured events (e.g., port fault, classification failure, thermal warning). |
| 26 (xRESET) | Host Reset / Self-Reset | Active-low bidirectional reset line; host can assert reset, and controller can self-initiate 100 µs reset pulse. |
| 27, 23, 18 (xLED_LATCH/CS/OE) | LED Stream Control | Direct SPI-compatible signals driving external LED drivers-enables real-time port status visualization without host CPU load. |
| 9, 10, 28, 30 (VDDA/VSSA/VSSD/VDD) | Power & Ground | VDDA/VDD = 3.3 V analog/digital supply; VSSA/VSSD = separate analog/digital ground planes; ePAD tied to VSSA. |
| 29 (VDD_CORE) | Core Voltage Supply | 1.2 V core supply requiring local 1 µF decoupling to VSSD-critical for stable ARM Cortex-M0+ operation. |
| 31–32 (SWD_CLK/DIO) | Debug Interface | Serial Wire Debug pins for firmware development and field diagnostics; SWD_CLK requires 1 kΩ pull-up to 3.3 V. |

The PD39210R-010020 supports IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at standards only. It does not support 802.3bt or HDBaseT (POH). This limitation is intentional and documented in the Features Matrix-making PD39210R-010020 suitable for legacy and mid-tier PoE deployments where higher-power standards are unnecessary.
How many PoE ports can the PD39210R-010020 manage?
The PD39210R-010020 supports up to 48 logical ports, each constructed from a single physical 2-pair Ethernet port. Unlike PD69210/PD69220, it does not support 2×physical-port-to-1×logical-port mapping-simplifying design but limiting maximum port density per controller in 4-pair configurations.
Does the PD39210R-010020 require an external microcontroller to operate?
No-the PD39210R-010020 contains pre-programmed firmware enabling autonomous operation for 802.3af/at detection, classification, and power delivery. It can function standalone or optionally interface with a host via I²C or UART for advanced monitoring and configuration-providing flexibility for both simple and complex system architectures.
What is the maximum power per port supported by the PD39210R-010020?
The PD39210R-010020 delivers up to 30 W per 2-pair port, compliant with IEEE 802.3at Class 4. This is lower than the 45 W capability of PD69210 due to its reduced feature set. The 30 W limit is enforced in hardware and cannot be extended via firmware update or configuration change.
Can the PD39210R-010020 be used with the PD39208 PSE manager?
Yes-the PD39210R-010020 is explicitly designed for use with the PD39208 PSE manager. They communicate via a dedicated 1 MHz SPI interface (ESPI_MISO/ESPI_SCK/ESPI_xCS/ESPI_MOSI), forming a complete, optimized chipset for high-port-count 802.3af/at PoE systems as validated in Microchip AN3615.
