MAXIM INTEGRATED / ANALOG DEVICES MAX5974AETET Power-over-Ethernet PWM Controller

The MAX5974AETE+T is an active-clamped, spread-spectrum, current-mode PWM controller packaged in a 16-pin TQFN. It is designed to control wide-input-voltage, active-clamped, current-mode PWM forward converters used in Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) powered devices. Suitable for universal or telecom input ranges, this device features several enhancements for improved efficiency, including magnetizing current recycling via an auxiliary driver, programmable dead time for zero-voltage switching, and frequency foldback during light loads to reduce losses. It achieves output regulation without relying on optocouplers and supports applications such as PoE IEEE 802.3af/at powered devices, high-power PoE PDs, active-clamped DC-DC converters, IP phones, and wireless access points. Key specifications include a supply voltage range of 17V to 20V, operating temperature from -40°C to 85°C, short circuit protection with hiccup mode, adjustable switching frequency from 100kHz to 600kHz with synchronization up to 1.2MHz, programmable spread-spectrum for low EMI, dead time, soft-start, slope compensation, and maximum duty cycle limiting to 80%. Additional features include internal bootstrap UVLO with hysteresis, frequency dithering, and internal voltage regulation circuitry.
