Product details
Overview
TPS2383PMR from Texas Instruments is an IEEE 802.3af-compliant Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) power manager IC for Ethernet-based PoE mid-span injectors and switches. It manages up to eight PoE ports, performs two-point 25-kΩ discovery, capacitive legacy load detection, and 12-bit per-port current/voltage acquisition. It operates from a single +48-V supply with 3.3-V digital and 5-V analog rails, supporting real-time fault monitoring in telecom infrastructure.
For engineers reviewing the TPS2383PMR datasheet, TPS2383PMR pinout, TPS2383PMR application, or TPS2383PMR equivalent, this device serves as a programmable, I²C-controlled PSEPM with dual-color LED status drivers, opto-coupler-compatible I²C lines, and hardware FAULT interrupt-critical for scalable, isolated, and UL/IEC950-compliant PoE system design.
Technical Context
The TPS2383PMR implements a master sequencer architecture that cycles through eight independent port state machines, coordinating shared resources including a 12-bit A/D converter, ramp control circuitry (CR/CT/CINT), and discovery/classification voltage loops. Each port uses external N-channel MOSFETs controlled via dedicated gate drive outputs (1G–8G) with programmable di/dt ramping and fast fault turn-off (7.5 µs overcurrent response).
Its I²C slave interface supports 5-bit address selectability (A1–A5), enabling up to 32 devices on one bus and 256 total managed ports. Dual SDA lines (SDA_I/SDA_O) allow opto-isolation of the I²C bus while maintaining ground separation between controller and 48-V PoE domain-essential for safety-certified industrial and telecom deployments.

Pinout & Package
The TPS2383PMR is housed in a 64-pin LQFP (PM package) with exposed thermal pad, rated for 0°C to 70°C operation. Pin functions are validated per TI SLUS559B datasheet, including dedicated analog/digital grounds (AG1, AG2, DG, RG), eight port pairs (1P/1N through 8P/8N), gate drives (1G–8G), sense inputs (1RS–8RS), and dual I²C data paths (SDA_I/SDA_O).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V48 (Pin 27) | +48-V primary power input | Supplies internal HV gate drive and analog circuits; accepts 44–57 V with UVLO at 28–40 V. |
| 1P–8P / 1N–8N | Port differential sense terminals | Monitor +48 V and return path for each of eight PoE ports; enable differential voltage/current control. |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Programmable discovery bypass | Per-port register control allows skipping classification to reduce power-up time in fixed-load applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PSE power manager applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS2384PMR | Higher integration: includes integrated 100-V N-channel MOSFETs; eliminates need for external FETs and gate drive circuitry. | Better suited for space-constrained designs where board area and component count must be minimized. | Select TPS2384PMR when external FET layout complexity or thermal management is prohibitive; accept higher channel RDS(on) and reduced flexibility in FET selection. |
| MAX5974A | Single-port PSE controller with integrated 100-V switch; lacks multi-port sequencing, shared A/D, or I²C addressability beyond 2 devices. | Targeted at low-port-count applications like embedded PoE endpoints or modular add-on cards. | Choose MAX5974A only for single-port or dual-port systems requiring minimal footprint and simpler firmware-no support for 8-port coordinated management. |
Compared with TPS2384PMR and MAX5974A, the TPS2383PMR uniquely balances scalability (8 ports, 32-device I²C addressing), measurement fidelity (12-bit shared A/D), and external FET flexibility-making it optimal for mid- to high-port-count PoE switches and injectors requiring precise telemetry and thermal optimization.

FAQ
What is the maximum number of TPS2383PMR devices that can be addressed on a single I²C bus?
The TPS2383PMR features five binary address select pins (A1–A5), enabling up to 32 unique I²C addresses on one bus. This allows a single master controller to manage up to 256 PoE ports (32 × 8) using multiple TPS2383PMR devices-ideal for large-scale Ethernet switch architectures requiring centralized firmware control and telemetry aggregation.
Does the TPS2383PMR integrate power MOSFETs, or does it require external switching devices?
The TPS2383PMR does not integrate power MOSFETs. It requires external low-side N-channel MOSFETs connected to its gate drive outputs (1G–8G). This architecture enables designers to select FETs optimized for RDS(on), thermal performance, and cost-critical for high-efficiency, high-port-count PoE systems where heat dissipation must be distributed across the PCB.
How does the TPS2383PMR handle non-IEEE 802.3af legacy powered devices?
The TPS2383PMR supports capacitive detection mode for legacy loads, using its internal 12-bit A/D converter to measure load capacitance instead of resistance. When enabled via register configuration, this mode safely identifies non-compliant devices without applying damaging discovery voltages-preserving interoperability with older VoIP phones, analog cameras, and other pre-standard PoE equipment.
What is the purpose of the dual SDA lines (SDA_I and SDA_O) on the TPS2383PMR?
The TPS2383PMR separates I²C data into SDA_I (input-only) and SDA_O (open-drain output) to support opto-coupler isolation between the controller domain and the 48-V PoE side. SDA_O can directly drive opto-LEDs from the +48-V rail using an external current-limiting resistor-ensuring galvanic isolation required for UL/IEC950 safety certification without adding level-shifting ICs or complex discrete circuitry.
Can the TPS2383PMR operate without the +5-V analog supply (V5) present?
No-the +5-V analog supply (V5) is required to power the LED drivers (L1–L8) and internal analog circuits. However, the 3.3-V logic supply (VL) may remain active even when +48-V (V48) is absent, allowing continued I²C register access for configuration and status reads. The V5 rail must be present for full functionality, including port power delivery, fault monitoring, and LED status indication.
