E VALUATION K IT U SER ’ S G UIDE FOR TH E Si3480 POWER
MANAGEMENT CONTROLLER
1. Introduction
In Power over Ethernet (PoE) Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), typically, not all PoE ports are connected to
loads, and the ports that are connected to loads draw substantially less than the maximum power defined in the
IEEE standard (30 W). For this reason, it is normal to use a power supply that is not capable of supplying full power
to all ports and to add a system-level power management function to deal with the rare situations in which the
system power supply becomes overloaded by selectively not granting power or by turning off ports in priority order.
In these situations, the system user can redistribute loads, add a larger power supply, or add more PSE systems as
needed.
The Si3480 works with the Si3452 PoE controllers and implements power management to enable the use of
smaller, lower-cost, and more efficiently-utilized power supplies in unmanaged PSE systems with up to eight ports.
The Si3480 also supports LED indication of port status and power supply consumption.
The Si3480MS8 evaluation board contains the Si3480 power manager, two Si3452 PoE controllers, a –50 V to
+3.3 V dc-to-dc converter based on an Si3500, status LEDs, and Ethernet coupling circuitry.
For demonstration purposes, Class 3 and Class 4 Powered Device (PD) loads are supplied with the evaluation
system. Various load resistors (also supplied) can be used to simulate normal and overload conditions.
2. Evaluation Board Overview
Figure 1 shows a photo of the evaluation board with highlights of the major functional blocks.
The PoE coupling circuit and Ethernet connectors are arranged as a “mid-span” power injector. Ethernet without
power is connected to the top row of connectors, and Ethernet with power injected is connected to the bottom row
of connectors. J300 is for the four ports connected to U1, and J301 is for the four ports connected to U2. If only the
PSE function is being evaluated, only the bottom row of connectors needs to be used. Table 1 lists the contents of
the Si3480MS8 evaluation kit.

3. Using the Si3480 Evaluation Board
3.1. Board Power
A nominal 50 V power supply is connected to J101. For high-power (PoE+) support according to the IEEE
standard, the supply voltage should be between 51 and 57 V. For normal power levels, the power supply can be 45
to 57 V. The total power supply wattage is normally in the range of 30 to 150 W. The large diode, D100, will be
forward-biased in case of accidental wrong input polarity. It is recommended that the power supply be connected to
the board and then turned on so as to prevent large inrush current from charging the two 33 µF filter capacitors on
the board.
3.2. Jumper Settings
Jumper JP1 sets the timing configuration. Since the board implements Alterative B wiring, the normal setting of JP1
is tied high (+3.3 V side). The Si3482 can support Alternative A timing by setting JPI low.
Jumpers J1, J2, and J3 set the voltage on the Si3480 programming pins. The voltage is set by a resistor ladder as
shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2. Si3480 Programming Jumpers
The silk-screen numbers 1, 2, 4, 8 refer to the resistor weighting; so, the jumper near the “1” is the MSB, and the
jumper near the “8” is the LSB. The voltage on the output pin (MD in Figure 2) as well as the way in which this is
interpreted by the Si3480 is shown in Table 2.

In a system where the voltage at the pin will be fixed, the jumper arrangement can be replaced with a simple
resistor divider. The A/D reference voltage for the Si3480 is VDD; so, as VDD varies, the Si3480 is only sensitive to
the ratio of resistors.
3.3. LEDs
Upon power application or reset (by SW1 in the upper left corner), the Si3480 probes to see whether there are one
or two Si3452 ICs connected (4 or 8 ports). The Si3480 then controls the LED display in the startup sequence
described and automatically starts managing the power among the ports as determined by the jumper settings.
After startup, the power meter and port status LEDs give a visual indication of the Si3480 operation.
3.3.1. Start-Up LED Sequence
During startup, the LEDs are lit in the sequence listed in Table 3 (1 second for each step).

3.3.2. Port Status LEDs
After the startup sequence, the port status LEDs display the patterns listed in Table 4 to indicate port status.
Table 4. Port LED Pattern Definitions
Port LED Pattern
Meaning
Flashing once every two seconds
Detection and Classification in process.
Continuously lit
PoE port is on.
Blinks off once every two seconds
PoE+ port is on with a class 4 PD load (30 W granted).
Flashing five times per second
Port overloaded.
Flashing twice every two seconds
Power denied due to lack of power.
For a port overload, an open circuit must be seen before the port is re-enabled; that is, the PD must be unplugged,
and the overload must be cleared.
Ports are turned off in priority order if more than the available power is being consumed. If the amount of power
consumed is >10% more than the available power, all low priority ports are shut off immediately.
Ports are not granted power unless there is enough power available to grant the requested power (based on
classification) with 15% margin. The 15% margin generally avoids situations where a port is granted power and
then later turned off due to lack of power.
If a port is turned off or denied power due to a lack of available power, the LED continues flashing twice every two
seconds until enough power is available to turn the port on or the PD is unplugged.
3.3.3. Power Meter LEDs
The power meter LEDs light consecutively, indicating the amount of power that is being consumed. There are eight
LEDs in the power meter. The LEDs will light in bar graph fashion:
Number_LEDs_Lit = 8 x Total_Power_Consumed / (0.85 x Provided_Power – 4 W) (rounded down)
The eighth power meter LED is generally a red LED. If this LED is lit, it means that there is not enough power
available to grant even a Class 1 load power and maintain a 15% margin. The eighth LED is flashed five times per
second if the Si3452 controllers report a power supply undervoltage.
3.4. Demonstration Using the Supplied Loads
The Si3480MS8-KIT ships with three powered devices based on the Si3402 with loads for up to approximately
18 W of input power. The loads are arranged as one to three 5 resistors, which draw 5 W each at the PD output
voltage of 5 V. Due to the PD input diode bridge and the dc-to-dc conversion efficiency, each resistor causes
approximately 6.5 W of power to be drawn from the PSE. This means that the PD will draw 6.5, 13, or 19.5 W from
the PSE, depending on the number of load resistors connected.
The Si3402 loads and resistors can be used to demonstrate most of the operation of the Si3480. In the following
example, it is assumed that the Si3480 board is connected to a 50 V power supply with a capacity of at least 40 W.
Step 1: Set the Jumpers.

J2

0001
Only port 1 is PoE+.
J3
Port priority

Only port 1 is high priority.
Because the system power is set to 40 W, the power meter display during normal operation is:
Number_LEDs_Lit = 8 x Total_Power_Consumed / (0.85 x 40 W – 4 W) (rounded down)
= Total_Power_Consumed/3.75 W (rounded down)

Step 2: Apply the –50 V Power.
Observe the power up LED sequence of one second at each step:
1. All LEDs
2. Port 1 LED and eight power meter LEDs to indicate two Si3452 port controllers found by the Si3480
3. Port 2 LED and two power meter LEDs to indicate the provided power is between 25 and 50 W
4. Port 3 LED and one power meter LEDs to indicate one PoE+ port
5. Port 4 LED and one power meter LEDs to indicate one high priority port
After the power up sequence, the port LEDs flash once every two seconds to indicate detection in process.
Step 3: Connect a Class 3 PD with one load resistor into Port 1 and a Class 4 PD with one load resistor into
Port 2.
The Port 1 LED is continuously lit to indicate the port is powered and is not PoE+ (because a Class 3 load was
connected).
The Port 2 LED is continuously lit to indicate the port is powered and is not PoE+ (because the port has not
been enabled for POE+). Three power meter LEDs are lit due to the 13 W of power consumption.
Step 4: Disconnect the PDs from Step 1, and connect the Class 4 PD to Port 1 and Class 3 PDs to each of
Ports 2 and 3. Initially, use one load resistor on each PD.
The port status LED on port 1 is on but blinks off every two seconds to indicate Port 1 is powered as PoE+.
The Port 2 and Port 3 LEDs are continuously lit to indicate those ports are powered and not PoE+.
The power meter LED has five LEDs lit due to the 19.5 W of power consumption.
Step 5: Increase the Load on the Ports to create a port overload by switching in more load resistors.
For Port 2 or Port 3 (with Class 3 PDs), the port overload condition occurs with the three resistors, which
corresponds to about 19.5 W of input power.
When the overload occurs, the port status LEDs flash five times per second to indicate that the overload has
occurred and the port is turned off.
To reset the port, decrease the load back to one resistor; unplug the PD, and plug it back in.

Rev. 0.2
Si3480MS8-KIT
For Port 1 (PoE+ port with Class 4 PD), the overload does not happen even with 19.5 W being drawn by the
PD. Note that, in this case, the load resistors and PD will get hot, so use care.
Step 6: Demonstrate the port priority and system overload protection features.
Disconnect all PDs and then connect the Class 3 PDs to Ports 2 and 3 with two load resistors so they are
drawing 13 W each (26 W total power).
Connect the Class 4 PD with three resistors (19.5 W) to Port 1.
Port 1 is granted power, and a system level overload is created with approximately 45.5 W.
Either Port 3 or Ports 2 and 3 will be turned off depending on whether the Si3480 reported a severe overload
(>44 W).
Because the PDs have a soft start circuit, it is possible that only Port 3 is turned off when the power exceeds
40 W.
The ports that are turned off will not turn back on until the load on port 1 is reduced.
3.5. Higher Power Applications
The 40 W power supply used in “3.4. Demonstration Using the Supplied Loads” is typical of a PSE system that
supports PoE+ on one port and is not expected to have PDs on all ports. By using a higher power supply and
setting the jumpers appropriately, the evaluation system can be used for higher power applications. As the
available power is increased, it becomes increasingly difficult to create a system-level overload.
