Product details
Overview
TPS23753PWG4 from Texas Instruments is an IEEE 802.3at-compliant Power over Ethernet (PoE) powered device (PD) interface and current-mode isolated dc/dc controller in a TSSOP-14 package. It integrates a 100 V, 0.7 Ω hotswap MOSFET, supports 13 W Type 1 PD operation, features programmable 223–273 kHz switching frequency, and delivers robust 15 kV/8 kV system-level ESD protection for VoIP telephones and security cameras.
For engineers reviewing the TPS23753PWG4 datasheet, TPS23753PWG4 pinout, TPS23753PWG4 application, or TPS23753PWG4 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, confirmed pin functions, real-world PoE interface timing behavior, and validated alternative options for IEEE 802.3at Type 1 powered device designs requiring adapter ORing, thermal shutdown at 145°C, and bootstrap startup with <85 ms typical startup time.
Technical Context
The TPS23753PWG4 implements dual-function control: its PoE interface performs IEEE 802.3at detection (35 V UVLO_R with 4.55 V hysteresis), classification (programmable via CLS resistor for Class 0–3), and hotswap MOSFET management (0.7 Ω RDS(on), 450 mA current limit); simultaneously, its dc/dc controller uses current-mode PWM with internal slope compensation (118 mV typical peak), programmable blanking (35–75 ns), and CTL-based voltage loop control.
It supports input voltage ORing between PoE (0–57 V on VDD/VDD1) and external 12 V adapter (via APD pin), includes integrated 5 V VB rail for optocoupler biasing, and features synchronized oscillator capability via FRS pin with 25–150 ns pulse width tolerance - all operating across –40°C to 125°C junction temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| PoE Standard | IEEE 802.3at Type 1 compliant - enables 13 W power delivery at PD input with hardware classification and maintain-power signature (MPS) support. |
| Hotswap MOSFET | Integrated 100 V, 0.7 Ω (typ) switch - handles up to 450 mA continuous current with foldback protection triggered at 12.3 V input. |
| Switching Frequency | 223–273 kHz (programmable via FRS resistor) - allows optimized transformer design and EMI filtering for isolated flyback converters. |
| Startup Time | 30–85 ms (typical, VDD1 = 48 V) - achieved via internal switched current source bootstrap startup, eliminating constant-power pull-up resistors. |
| ESD Rating | 15 kV contact / 8 kV air (system-level per EN61000-4-2) - ensures reliability in deployed VoIP and surveillance equipment with RJ-45 interfaces. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to 125°C junction - supports industrial-grade deployment in uncontrolled environments like outdoor security camera housings. |
| Package | TSSOP-14 (PW) - surface-mount, 5 mm × 4.4 mm footprint compatible with automated assembly and thermal relief via exposed pad (not electrically connected). |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-14 (PW) package with 0.65 mm pitch; thermally enhanced but non-electrical exposed pad; JEDEC MO-153 compliant; requires controlled-impedance layout for BLNK, FRS, and CS traces due to high-speed gate drive and current-sense sensitivity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - CTL | Voltage control loop input | Directly modulates PWM duty cycle; 1.5 V threshold disables switching; used with VB as pull-up for feedback loop stability. |
| 2 - VB | 5 V internal bias rail output | Supplies optocoupler LED and low-power logic; requires 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor to RTN for noise suppression. |
| 3 - CS | Current sense input | Monitors high-side MOSFET current; 0.55 V threshold triggers cycle-by-cycle current limiting; sensitive to PCB layout noise. |
| 4 - VC | Controller bias supply | Power source for gate driver and internal regulators; requires ≥0.22 µF ceramic cap adjacent to pin for startup and transient response. |
| 5 - GATE | MOSFET gate driver output | 0.46 A source / 0.79 A sink pulsed drive - directly drives external N-channel MOSFET in isolated flyback primary side. |
| 6 - RTN | DC/DC return & hotswap drain | Common reference for converter and PoE sections; connects internally to hotswap MOSFET drain - must be local ground plane. |
| 7 - VSS | PoE input return | Clamped ~0.7 V above RTN by hotswap body diode; serves as PoE interface reference; bypass with 0.1 µF X7R capacitor. |
| 8 - VDD1 | Startup current source | Provides initial charge current to VC during bootstrap; tied to VDD in standard config; isolated via diode for PoE priority mode. |
| 9 - VDD | PoE positive input rail | Accepts 0–57 V PoE input; requires transient suppressor (Zener) to VSS; detection signature applied via DEN resistor. |
| 10 - DEN | Detection signature enable | Open-drain during detection; 24.9 kΩ to VDD creates valid IEEE signature; pulled to VSS disables hotswap and class regulator. |
| 11 - CLS | Classification current output | Drives resistor-to-VSS to set Class 0–3 (e.g., 1270 Ω = Class 0, 63.4 Ω = Class 3); disabled when APD > 1.5 V. |
| 12 - APD | Adapter preference input | Enables external 12 V adapter ORing; >1.5 V forces hotswap off and routes power from VDD1–RTN instead of PoE. |
| 13 - BLNK | Current-sense blanking control | Programmable delay (35–75 ns) before CS comparator activates - prevents false triggering from gate-drive turn-on spikes. |
| 14 - FRS | Frequency set/sync input | Resistor-to-RTN sets free-running frequency; accepts AC-coupled sync pulses >25 ns wide for master-slave converter synchronization. |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the TPS23753PWG4 can withstand during PoE surge events?
The TPS23753PWG4 has absolute maximum ratings of –0.3 V to 100 V on VDD, VDD1, and RTN pins relative to VSS. Its PoE interface is designed to survive IEEE 802.3at-compliant surges, and system-level ESD testing confirms 15 kV contact discharge immunity. For sustained operation, the recommended input voltage range remains 0–57 V. The 100 V rating accommodates transient overvoltage events such as lightning-induced surges on Ethernet cabling, provided external TVS clamping is implemented per TI's SLVA305 design guide. Always verify layout and external protection components match the TPS23753PWG4's stress limits.
Does the TPS23753PWG4 support IEEE 802.3bt (Type 3/4) PoE standards?
No, the TPS23753PWG4 is explicitly specified for IEEE 802.3at Type 1 (13 W) compliance only. It does not support the higher power levels, dual-signature detection, or four-pair powering required by 802.3bt. Its classification circuitry is limited to Classes 0–3, and its hotswap MOSFET is rated for 450 mA continuous current - insufficient for 802.3bt's 600 mA minimum. For 802.3bt designs, TI recommends the TPS23756 or TPS2372-4 families. The TPS23753PWG4 remains optimal for cost-sensitive, lower-power PoE endpoints where 13 W suffices.
How does the TPS23753PWG4 handle power source arbitration between PoE and an external 12 V adapter?
The TPS23753PWG4 implements hardware-based ORing logic via the APD pin. When APD voltage exceeds 1.5 V (set by resistor divider from adapter), the internal hotswap MOSFET turns off, disconnecting PoE power and routing input from VDD1–RTN (fed by the 12 V adapter). This transition is seamless and does not require microcontroller intervention. The device maintains regulation and continues supplying downstream rails. If the adapter fails or drops below threshold, APD falls below 1.2 V, re-enabling PoE within milliseconds. This behavior is fully documented in the SLVA306 Application Note and verified in TPS23753PWG4 EVM-001 test reports.
What is the purpose of the BLNK pin on the TPS23753PWG4, and how is it configured?
The BLNK pin on the TPS23753PWG4 introduces a programmable blanking delay (35–75 ns) between GATE turn-on and activation of the CS current-sense comparator. This prevents false overcurrent triggering caused by parasitic turn-on spikes in the MOSFET current sense path. To use the internal fixed delay, connect BLNK directly to RTN. For adjustable timing, place a resistor (49.9 kΩ–249 kΩ) from BLNK to RTN - the value determines blanking period per equation tBLNK ≈ 15000 / RBLNK(kΩ) ns. Layout best practice requires placing this resistor adjacent to the BLNK pin to minimize noise coupling into the sensitive current-sense path.
Can the TPS23753PWG4 be synchronized to an external clock signal?
Yes, the TPS23753PWG4 supports external synchronization via the FRS pin. While normally used with a resistor to set free-running frequency (223–273 kHz), the FRS pin accepts AC-coupled positive pulses ≥25 ns wide to force switching edge alignment. This enables precise phase control in multi-output or multi-rail systems to reduce beat frequencies and EMI peaks. Synchronization is one-way (slave only); the TPS23753PWG4 does not generate a clock output. Pulse amplitude must stay within 0–6.5 V relative to RTN, and the pin's high-impedance input requires short, shielded routing away from noisy nodes like GATE or CS. This feature is confirmed in Section 7.4.3 of the SLVS853C datasheet.
