Description
3 Description
The TPS23731VM-095 enables full evaluation of the TPS23731 device. Refer to the schematic shown in Figure
7-1 and Figure 7-2. Ethernet power is applied from J1 and is dropped to the bridge rectifier. The Power over
Ethernet (PoE) transformer needed to transfer power or data is T1. The Bob Smith Terminations help balance
the Ethernet cabled impedance and are critical for ESD and EMI or EMC performance. The EMI or EMC filter
and transient protection for the TPS23731 device are at the output of the bridge rectifier.
Input power can also be applied at J3 from a DC source when power at J1 is not present.
The TPS23731 (U1) PD and DC-to-DC converter circuitry is shown in Figure 1. R28 provides the detection
signature. The switched side of the PD controller is to the right of U1. The TPS23731 RTN pin(s) provides inrush
limited turn on and charge of the bulk capacitor, C12.
The DC-to-DC converter is a high-efficiency primary side regulated synch flyback.
R34 provides a means for error injection to measure the frequency response of the converter.

6.2 Layout Guidelines
The layout of the PoE front end should follow power and EMI or ESD best-practice guidelines. A basic set of
recommendations includes:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
It is recommended having at least 8 vias (PAD G) and 5 vias on (PAD S) connecting the exposed thermal pad
through a top layer plane (2 oz copper recommended) to a bottom VSS plane (2 oz. copper recommended) to
help with thermal dissipation.
Place the primary MOSFET near the power transformer and keep the current sense resistor close to source
of the MOSFET to minimize the primary loop. The same is true for the secondary MOSFETs. Keep the
MOSFETs close to the transformer, and associated components as close together as possible to minimize
the loop.
Parts placement must be driven by power flow in a point-to-point manner; RJ-45, Ethernet transformer, diode
bridges, TVS and 0.1-μF capacitor, and TPS23731 converter input bulk capacitor.
Make all leads as short as possible with wide power traces and paired signal and return.
No crossovers of signals from one part of the flow to another are allowed.
Spacing consistent with safety standards like IEC60950 must be observed between the 48-V input voltage
rails and between the input and an isolated converter output.
Use large copper fills and traces on SMT power-dissipating devices, and use wide traces or overlay copper
fills in the power path.
Place the Schotty diode between VSS and RTN as close to the IC as possible, preferably on directly on the
opposite side of the board (ex. The TPS23731EVM-095 places the IC on the top side, so the diode is on the
bottom side directly underneath it).
The DC-to-DC converter layout benefits from basic rules such as:

Having at least 4 vias (VDD) near the power transformer pin connected to VDD through multiple layer planes
to help with thermal dissipation of the power transformer.
Pair signals to reduce emissions and noise, especially the paths that carry high-current pulses, which include
the power semiconductors and magnetics
Minimize the trace length of high current power semiconductors and magnetic components
Use the ground plane for the switching currents carefully
Keep the high-current and high-voltage switching away from low-level sensing circuits including those outside
the power supply
Proper spacing around the high-voltage sections of the converter

Use compact loops for dv/dt and di/dt circuit paths (power loops and gate drives)
Use minimal, yet thermally adequate, copper areas for heat sinking of components tied to switching
nodes (minimize exposed radiating surface). Hide copper associated with switching nodes under shielded
magnetics, where possible
Use copper ground planes (possible stitching) and top-layer copper floods (surround circuitry with ground
floods)
Use a 4-layer PCB, if economically feasible (for better grounding)
Minimize the amount of copper area associated with input traces (to minimize radiated pickup)
Heat sink the quiet side of components instead of the switching side, where possible (like the output side of
inductor)
Use Bob Smith terminations, Bob Smith EFT capacitor, and Bob Smith plane. Use Bob Smith plane as a
ground shield on input side of PCB (creating a phantom or literal earth ground)
Use LC filter at DC-to-DC input
Dampen high-frequency ringing on all switching nodes, if present (allow for possible snubbers)
Control rise times with gate-drive resistors and possibly snubbers
Switching frequency considerations
Use of EMI bridge capacitor across isolation boundary (isolated topologies)
Observe the polarity dot on inductors (embed noisy end)
Use of ferrite beads on input (allow for possible use of beads or 0-Ω resistors)
Maintain physical separation between input-related circuitry and power circuitry (use ferrite beads as
boundary line)
Balance efficiency versus acceptable noise margin
Possible use of common-mode inductors
Possible use of integrated RJ-45 jacks (shielded with internal transformer and Bob Smith terminations)
End-product enclosure considerations (shielding)
