THS4211DRG4

Summary description
The STHS4257 is an IEEE802.3af-compliant family of interface controllers for Power over Ethernet (PoE) Powered Device (PD) applications.
The devices consist of two main sections:●
The IEEE802.3af interface to the PoE powered RJ-45 wall socket, and● the Hot Swap Controller (HSC) functions required to protect the PD during insertion, operation, and withdrawal from the RJ-45 socket.
These devices have an integrated high voltage power MOSFET (low-side switch) with low RON and the capability to accept transients as high as 100V. Since the pins (such as GND and VIN) which interface to the RJ-45 socket can routinely see high peak voltages in excess of 100V, it is strongly recommended that board designers protect the PD device with a transient voltage suppressor, such as the SMAJ58A (available from STMicroelectronics), connected between the GND and VIN pins (see Figure 4 on page 8).
