The TPS23755 device combines a Power over Ethernet (PoE) powered device (PD) interface, a 150-V switching power FET, and a current-mode DC-DC controller optimized for flyback topology. The high level of integration along with primary side regulation (PSR), spread spectrum frequency dithering (SSFD), and advanced startup makes the TPS23755 an ideal solution for size-constrained applications. The PoE implementation supports the IEEE 802.3at standard as a 13-W, Type 1 PD.
The PSR feature of the DC-DC controller uses feedback from an auxiliary winding for control of the output voltage, eliminating the need for external shunt regulator and optocoupler. It is optimized for operation with secondary side diode rectifier (typically 12-V output or higher). Typically, the converter operates in continuous conduction mode (CCM) at a switching frequency of 250 kHz.
SFFD and slew rate control helps to minimize the size and cost of the EMI filter. Advanced Startup allows the use of minimal bias capacitor while simplifying converter startup and hiccup design.
Secondary auxiliary power detect capability provides priority for a secondary side power adapter, while ensuring smooth transition to and from PoE input power, with no efficiency or thermal trade-off.
The DC-DC controller features internal soft-start, slope compensation, and blanking. For non-isolated applications, the buck topology is also supported by the TPS23755.

PIN | I/O | DESCRIPTION | |
---|---|---|---|
NO. | NAME | ||
1 | RSNS | O | Switching Power FET source connection. Connect to the external power current sense resistor. |
2 | CP | O | CP provides the clamp for the primary side regulation loop. Connect this pin to the lower end of the second primary side winding of the transformer. |
3 | GND | — | Power ground used by the flyback power FET gate driver and CP. Connect to RTN. |
4 | SRR | I | Switching FET Gate sinking current input, used for EMI control. Connect a resistance from SRR to GND to control the Vds rate of rise. |
5 | SRF | I | Switching FET Gate sourcing current input, used for EMI control. Connect a resistance from SRF to VB to control the Vds rate of fall. |
6 | VB | O | 5-V bias rail for the switching FET gate driver circuit. For internal use only. Bypass with a 0.1-μF ceramic capacitor and 6.2-V Zener diode to GND pin. |
7 | AUX_D | I | Auxiliary supply detect, internally pulled-up to approximately 5 V. Pull this pin low, typically through an optocoupler from the secondary side, to step down the output voltage of the DC-DC converter when a secondary side auxiliary supply is connected. |
8 | CS | I | DC-DC controller current sense input. Connect directly to the external power current sense resistor. |
9 | DTHR | O | Used for spread spectrum frequency dithering. Connect a capacitor from DTHR to RTN and a resistor from DTHR to FRS. If dithering is not used, short DTHR to VB pin. |
10 | FRS | I/O | This pin controls the switching frequency of the DC-DC converter. Tie a resistor from this pin to RTN to set the frequency. |
11 | RTN | — | RTN is the output of the PoE hotswap and the reference ground for the DC-DC controller. |
12 | VSS | — | Negative power rail derived from the PoE source. |
13 | VDD | — | Source of DC-DC converter start-up current. Connect to VPD for most applications. |
14 | VPD | — | Positive input power rail for PoE interface circuit. Derived from the PoE source. Bypass with a 0.1 µF to VSS and protect with a TVS. |
15 | DEN | I/O | Connect a 24.9-kΩ resistor from DEN to VPD to provide the PoE detection signature. Pulling this pin to VSS during powered operation causes the internal hotswap MOSFET to turn off. |
16 | CLS | O | Connect a resistor from CLS to VSS to program the classification current. |
17 | NC | — | No connect pin. Leave open. |
18 | FB | I | Converter error amplifier inverting (feedback) input. It is typically driven by a voltage divider from the auxiliary winding. Also connect to the COMP compensation network. |
19 | COMP | O | Compensation output of the DC-DC convertor error amplifier. Connect the compensation networks from this pin to the FB pin to compensate the converter. |
20 | AUX_V | O | AUX_V works with AUX_D to step down the output voltage setting of the DC-DC converter when an auxiliary supply is detected. Typically connected to FB pin through a resistor which defines the new voltage setting. |
21 | VCC | I/O | DC/DC converter bias voltage. The internal startup current source and converter bias winding output power this pin. Connect a 1-µF minimum ceramic capacitor to RTN. |
23 | NC | — | No connect pin. Leave open. |
24 | DRAIN | O | Drain connection to the internal switching power MOSFET of the DC/DC controller. |
- | PAD | — | The exposed thermal pad must be connected to VSS. A large fill area is required to assist in heat dissipation. |
A1-A4 | ANCHORS | — | Should be soldered to PCB for mechanical performance. These pins are not connected internally. |
