Product details
Overview
TPS23752PWP from Texas Instruments is a 20-pin IEEE 802.3at Type 2 Power over Ethernet (PoE) powered device (PD) interface with integrated flyback DC-DC controller. It delivers up to 25.5 W, features a 100 V / 0.45 Ω internal hot-swap MOSFET, supports ultra-low-power Sleep Mode with Maintain Power Signature (MPS), and operates across –40°C to 125°C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the TPS23752PWP datasheet, TPS23752PWP pinout, TPS23752PWP application, or TPS23752PWP equivalent, this device is selected for PoE-powered endpoints requiring robust classification, inrush control, synchronous rectifier disable, programmable frequency, and sleep-mode power management in space-constrained TSSOP-20 layouts.
Technical Context
The TPS23752PWP integrates dual functional blocks: an IEEE 802.3at-compliant PoE PD interface (detection, classification, Type 2 hardware classification, APD input, T2P flag) and a current-mode flyback DC-DC controller with slope-compensated PWM, variable-frequency operation (VFO) at light loads, and internal soft-start. Its Sleep Mode disables converter switching while sustaining MPS via pulsed LED drive.
Sleep Mode activation requires SLPb low and MODE configuration; wake-up is triggered by WAKE pin assertion. The controller uses ARTN as analog ground reference, separates RTN (MOSFET drain) from VSS (system ground), and provides dedicated pins for synchronous rectifier disable (SRD), threshold control (SRT), and gate drive (GATE) - all optimized for isolated flyback topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IEEE Standard | Complies with IEEE 802.3at Type 2 for detection, classification, and MPS - enables interoperability with 25.5 W PSEs. |
| Max Continuous Output Power | 25.5 W - supports high-power PDs such as PTZ cameras and dual-band access points without external boost stages. |
| rDS(on) | 0.45 Ω typical - minimizes conduction loss and thermal rise in the integrated 100 V hot-swap MOSFET. |
| Sleep Mode Supply Current | 1.0 mA typical - sustains MPS with minimal quiescent draw during low-power standby states. |
| Switching Frequency Range | 105–276 kHz (PWM/VFO) - programmable via RT resistor; enables EMI optimization and transformer size reduction. |
| Junction Temperature Range | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for industrial and outdoor PoE endpoint deployments including security infrastructure. |

Pinout & Package
TPS23752PWP is housed in a thermally enhanced PowerPAD™ TSSOP-20 package (6.50 mm × 4.40 mm), with the exposed thermal pad electrically connected to VSS for PCB-level heat dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD | PoE input supply rail | Accepts 36–57 V PoE input; bypassed to VSS with 0.1 µF capacitor for noise filtering. |
| DEN | Detection/enable control | Pull to VSS to disable pass MOSFET; 24.9 kΩ to VDD enables detection mode. |
| CLS | Classification current source | Drives external RCLS to generate IEEE 802.3at Class 0–4 signature (e.g., 1270 Ω = Class 1). |
| APD | Auxiliary power detect | Rising >1.5 V above ARTN disables MOSFET and forces T2P active - enables auxiliary power switchover. |
| RT | Oscillator timing | Resistor to ARTN sets PWM frequency (e.g., 34 kΩ → 251 kHz); enables EMI tuning. |
| T2P | Type 2 PSE indicator | Active-low open-drain output confirms Type 2 PSE handshake completion after classification. |
| SRD | Synchronous rectifier disable | Asserts low in VFO mode to disable external SRs - prevents shoot-through during light-load burst mode. |
| CTL | PWM control loop input | Feedback node for voltage regulation; threshold (2.00 V) triggers transition from PWM to VFO mode. |
| VSS | Negative PoE rail return | System ground reference; must connect to PowerPAD™ thermal pad for thermal and electrical integrity. |
| ARTN | Analog return for DC-DC section | Local ground for controller bias, CS, VC, VB - must tie to RTN but routed separately from noisy digital grounds. |
| RTN | Pass MOSFET drain terminal | Output node of integrated hot-swap switch; connects to primary-side transformer winding and ARTN. |
| GATE | External MOSFET driver | High-current (1.0 A sink / 0.6 A source) gate drive for external flyback switch - supports fast switching. |
| VC | GATE drive supply | 12.8 V regulated output (TPS23752 only) for bootstrap gate drive; bypassed with ≥0.47 µF to ARTN. |
| CS | Current sense input | ARTN-referenced input for primary-side current sensing; 0.25 V threshold enables cycle-by-cycle limiting. |
| VB | Bias supply output | 5.0 V ±2.5% regulated supply for internal logic and external circuitry; min 0.08 µF bypass required. |
| SRT | VFO/PWM transition threshold | Adjusts CTL threshold (1.5–2.35 V) to fine-tune light-load efficiency vs. regulation trade-off. |
| SLPb | Sleep Mode enable | Low-active input; falling edge initiates Sleep Mode while maintaining MPS via MODE-controlled LED pulsing. |
| MODE | MPS configuration | Selects pulsed (VMODE = 0 V) or DC (VMODE = VB) MPS mode; also controls LED behavior in normal operation. |
| WAKE | Sleep Mode exit trigger | Pull low to resume full DC-DC operation; internal 5.33 kΩ pull-up ensures default wake state. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PoE PD interface applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS23751PWP | 16-pin TSSOP; lacks Sleep Mode, SLPb, MODE, WAKE, and pulsed MPS circuitry; VC not regulated in sleep. | Supports only active-mode PoE PDs; cannot sustain MPS during low-power standby - unsuitable for battery-backed or fanless systems. | Select when Sleep Mode is unnecessary and board space is constrained; verify thermal design for continuous 25.5 W operation. |
| LT4275AIMSE#PBF | 16-pin MSOP; IEEE 802.3at Type 2 compliant; no integrated DC-DC controller - requires external flyback IC or transformer driver. | Used where discrete power architecture is preferred; offers higher accuracy classification and faster T2P response but increases component count. | Choose when system-level flexibility outweighs integration benefits - e.g., multi-output or non-flyback topologies. |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous current supported by the TPS23752PWP internal MOSFET?
The TPS23752PWP internal MOSFET supports a maximum continuous RTN current of 825 mA at TJ ≤ 125°C, with a typical rDS(on) of 0.45 Ω. This enables reliable delivery of up to 25.5 W to the downstream DC-DC stage under full-load conditions while maintaining thermal safety margins in standard PCB layouts.
How does the TPS23752PWP enter and exit Sleep Mode?
The TPS23752PWP enters Sleep Mode when the SLPb pin is pulled low; it exits Sleep Mode when the WAKE pin is asserted low. During Sleep Mode, the DC-DC converter is disabled but the Maintain Power Signature (MPS) remains active via pulsed LED drive controlled by the MODE pin - ensuring IEEE 802.3at compliance without full-system power-up.
Can the TPS23752PWP operate with both PoE and auxiliary power sources?
Yes - the TPS23752PWP supports adapter ORing via its APD (Auxiliary Power Detect) pin. When APD rises >1.5 V above ARTN, the internal MOSFET disables, CLS deactivates, and T2P asserts, allowing seamless switchover to an external DC source. This feature is confirmed in the datasheet's Functional Block Diagram and Pin Description sections.
What is the purpose of the ARTN pin, and how should it be routed?
The ARTN pin serves as the dedicated analog ground return for the DC-DC controller section (CS, VC, VB, GATE, SRT). It must be tied to RTN but routed on a clean local ground plane beneath the flyback transformer and primary-side components - separate from noisy digital or power grounds - to prevent control-loop instability and ensure accurate current sensing.
Does the TPS23752PWP require external components for IEEE 802.3at classification?
Yes - classification is implemented using an external resistor (RCLS) connected between the CLS pin and VSS. The value of RCLS determines the IEEE 802.3at Class (e.g., 1270 Ω = Class 1, 243 Ω = Class 3). The TPS23752PWP applies ~2.5 V across RCLS during classification, and this configuration is validated in the datasheet's Pin Functions and Electrical Characteristics tables.
