Product details
Overview
TPS23753PWRG4 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 14-pin TSSOP package. It integrates a 100 V, 0.7 Ω hotswap MOSFET, supports 13 W type 1 PD operation, delivers programmable 223–273 kHz switching frequency, and operates across –40°C to 125°C junction temperature for VoIP telephones and security cameras.
For engineers reviewing the TPS23753PWRG4 datasheet, TPS23753PWRG4 pinout, TPS23753PWRG4 application, or TPS23753PWRG4 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, confirmed pin functions, real-world PoE interface timing behavior, isolated converter startup characteristics, and validated alternative options for IEEE 802.3at PD designs.
Technical Context
The TPS23753PWRG4 implements dual-domain control: a PoE front-end with detection signature generation (via DEN), hardware classification (via CLS resistor programming), and robust 100 V hotswap protection; and a current-mode dc/dc controller with bootstrap startup, internal slope compensation (90–142 mV), and programmable blanking (35–75 ns) to suppress gate-turn-on current spikes.
It supports adapter ORing via APD pin voltage qualification (1.42–1.58 V threshold), synchronous frequency locking via FRS pin (25–150 ns pulse width), and dual-input bias sourcing (VDD1 startup current source, VC bias rail with 0.22 µF minimum bypass) - all coordinated under a single thermal shutdown mechanism (135–155°C turn-off).

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PoE PD interface and isolated converter controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS23753PW | Same die, identical electrical specs, but non-G4 suffix (no enhanced ESD or flow-through packaging) | No system-level ESD certification; not qualified for 15 kV contact/8 kV air per EN61000-4-2 | Select TPS23753PWRG4 when deploying in field-deployed equipment requiring certified ESD immunity. |
| LT4275AIMSE#TRPBF | IEEE 802.3at-compliant PD interface only - no integrated dc/dc controller; requires external PWM IC | Supports Class 4 (25.5 W) and higher-power PoE++ modes; lacks built-in gate driver and VC bias generation | Choose LT4275AIMSE#TRPBF when designing >13 W PDs or requiring multi-rail isolated outputs with independent controller tuning. |
Compared with TPS23753PW, the TPS23753PWRG4 adds certified 15 kV/8 kV system-level ESD protection and tighter thermal hysteresis control; compared with LT4275AIMSE#TRPBF, it integrates the entire dc/dc control loop but limits maximum power to 13 W and does not support PoE++.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage the TPS23753PWRG4 can withstand on its VDD pin?
The TPS23753PWRG4 has an absolute maximum VDD rating of 100 V, with recommended operating range from 0 V to 57 V. This 100 V tolerance accommodates transient surges on PoE lines, including worst-case lightning-induced spikes and PSE turn-on overshoot, while maintaining functional operation within the 57 V ceiling defined by IEEE 802.3at.
How does the TPS23753PWRG4 implement IEEE 802.3at detection and classification?
The TPS23753PWRG4 implements IEEE 802.3at detection using a 24.9 kΩ resistor from DEN to VDD to generate the required 23.75–26.25 kΩ incremental resistance signature. Classification is achieved via a resistor from CLS to VSS, selecting Class 0–3 currents (1.8–39.9 mA) that correspond to 0.44–12.95 W power budgets at the powered device input.
Can the TPS23753PWRG4 be used with an external 12 V adapter in parallel with PoE?
Yes - the TPS23753PWRG4 supports adapter ORing via the APD pin. When APD is pulled above 1.42 V (e.g., via resistor divider from a 12 V adapter), the internal hotswap MOSFET turns off and power is sourced exclusively from the adapter. This enables seamless failover without external diodes or controllers.
What is the purpose of the BLNK pin on the TPS23753PWRG4?
The BLNK pin on the TPS23753PWRG4 introduces a programmable blanking delay (35–75 ns) between GATE turn-on and CS current sensing activation. This prevents false overcurrent triggering caused by parasitic turn-on spikes in the MOSFET current sense path, ensuring stable current-mode control in high-dV/dt isolated topologies.
Does the TPS23753PWRG4 include thermal protection, and how does it behave?
Yes - the TPS23753PWRG4 incorporates a single thermal shutdown circuit that turns off both the PoE hotswap MOSFET and dc/dc controller when junction temperature exceeds 135–155°C. It includes 20°C hysteresis, so operation resumes only after temperature falls below 115–135°C, preventing oscillatory shutdown during thermal overload conditions.
