During the PD classification mode, the MAX5971A forces
a probe voltage (-18V typ) at DET and measures the
current into DET. The measured current determines the
class of the PD. If the ILIM1 and ILIM2 pins are both left
unconnected, the MAX5971A classifies the PD based on
Table 33.9 of the IEEE 802.3at standard (see Table 2).
If the measured current exceeds 51mA, the MAX5971A
does not power the PD, but returns to the idle state
before attempting a new detection cycle.
The MAX5971A supports high power beyond the IEEE
802.3at standard by providing an additional classifica-
tion (Class 5) if needed. To enable Class 5 detection
and select the corresponding current-limit/overcurrent

thresholds, ILIM1 and ILIM2 must be set based on
the combinations detailed in Table 3. Once Class 5 is
enabled, during classification, if the MAX5971A detects
currents in excess of the Class 4 upper limit threshold,
the PD is classified as a Class 5 powered device. The PD
is guaranteed to be classified as a Class 5 device for any
classification current from 51mA up to the classification
current-limit threshold.
The Class 5 overcurrent threshold and current limit is
set with ILIM1 and ILIM2. ILIM1 and ILIM2 are both
referenced to V
digital supply. Leave ILIM1 and ILIM2 unconnected to
disable Class 5 detection and to be fully compliant to
IEEE 802.3at standard classification. Class 5 detection
is enabled, and the corresponding overcurrent threshold
and current limit is adjusted, by connecting one or both
to V
If the result of the first classification event is Class 0
through Class 3, then only a single classification event
occurs as shown in Figure 1. However, if the result is
Class 4 or Class 5 (when enabled), the device performs
a second classification event as shown in Figure 2.
Between the classification cycles, the MAX5971A per-
forms a first and second mark event as required by the
IEEE 802.3at standard, forcing a -9.0V probing voltage
at DET.
When the MAX5971A enters a powered state, the t
and t
timed out, the device enters a normal powered condition,
allowing power delivery to the PD.
