DEMO MANUAL DC2046A-A LT4276, LT4321 PoE PD with Synchronous Flyback and Ideal Diode Bridge DESCRIPTION Demonstration circuit 2046A-A is an Ethernet Alliance sized power supply that utilizes a highly efficient flyback certified PoE powered device (PD) with an isolated power topology with synchronous rectification. The LT4321 supply using synchronous flyback topology, featuring the provides further efficiency improvement by minimizing LT 4276 and ideal diode bridge controller (LT4321). the bridge losses. The LT4276 provides IEEE802.3af (PoE, Type 1), The DC2046A-A supplies a 3.3V output at up to 6.8A. It + ++ IEEE802.3at (PoE , Type 2), and LTPoE PD interfacing also demonstrates the use of an optional auxiliary power and power supply control. When the PD is fully powered, supply input of 48V. When present, the auxiliary supply the PD interface switches power over from the power becomes the dominant supply over PoE to provide power. sourcing equipment (PSE) to the switcher through an Design files for this circuit board are available. external, low resistance, high power N-channel FET.
