MAX5952
The MAX5952 is a quad -48V power controller
designed for use in IEEE
®
802.3af-compliant/pre-IEEE
802.3at-compatible power-sourcing equipment (PSE).
This device provides powered device (PD) discovery,
classification, current limit, DC and AC load disconnect
detections in compliance with the IEEE 802.3af stan-
dard. The MAX5952 is pin compatible with MAX5945/
LTC4258/LTC4259A PSE controllers and provides addi-
tional features.
The MAX5952 features high-power mode that provides
up to 45W per port. The MAX5952 provides instanta-
neous readout of each port current through the I
2
C inter-
face. The MAX5952 also provides high-capacitance
detection for legacy PDs.
The device features an I
2
C-compatible, 3-wire serial inter-
face, and is fully software configurable and programma-
ble. The class-overcurrent detection function enables
system power management to detect if a PD draws more
than the allowable current. The MAX5952’s extensive pro-
grammability enhances system flexibility, enables field
diagnosis, and allows for uses in other applications.
The MAX5952 provides four operating modes to suit dif-
ferent system requirements. Auto mode allows the device
to operate automatically without any software supervision.
Semi-automatic mode automatically detects and classi-
fies a device connected to a port after initial software acti-
vation, but does not power up that port until instructed to
by software. Manual mode allows total software control of
the device and is useful for system diagnostics.
Shutdown mode terminates all activities and securely
turns off power to the ports.
The MAX5952 provides input undervoltage lockout
(UVLO), input undervoltage detection, input overvolt-
age lockout, overtemperature detection, output voltage
slew-rate limit during startup, power-good status, and
fault status. The MAX5952’s programmability includes
startup timeout, overcurrent timeout, and load-discon-
nect detection timeout.
The MAX5952 is available in a 36-pin SSOP package and
is rated for both extended (-40°C to +85°C) and upper
commercial (0°C to +85°C) temperature ranges.

. Driving GATE_ higher than 11.4V above V
EE
may damage the device.
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
