LM5070MTCX-50

Texas Instruments · Power Over Ethernet (PoE) Controllers · TSSOP-16

LM5070MTCX-50 from Texas Instruments, in a TSSOP-16. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VIN power_in System high potential input; the positive power supply connection from the Power over Ethernet source in the range 1.8V to 75V.
2 RSIG passive Signature resistor pin; connect a 25kΩ external signature resistor from VIN to this pin to enable IEEE 802.3af detection mode.
3 RCLASS passive Classification resistor pin; connect the external classification programming resistor from this pin to VEE to set the device power class (0-4).
4 UVLO input Undervoltage lockout threshold pin; the voltage at this pin is compared to a 2.00V reference to enable or disable converter operation based on VIN levels set by external resistor divider.
5 UVLORTN passive Return pin for the external UVLO resistor divider network; provides the reference point between the upper and lower UVLO programming resistors.
6 RCLP passive Current limit programming pin; connect an external resistor from this pin to VEE to program the inrush current limit from 75mA to 390mA, or leave open for the default 390mA limit.
7 VEE power_in System low potential input and negative power supply return; the more negative input potential (0V reference, absolute rating −0.3V to 80V with respect to RTN).
8 RTN power_in System return for the PWM converter; the drain of the internal current limiting power MOSFET which connects VEE to the return path of the DC-DC converter.
9 OUT output Gate driver output of the PWM controller; provides the DC-DC converter control signal with 800mA peak sink and source current capability.
10 VCC power_out Regulated output of the internal high voltage series pass regulator; typical output voltage 7.8V nominal (5.9V to 8.1V operating range, 15mA current limited).
11 FB input Feedback signal input to the inverting terminal of the internal error amplifier (non-inverting reference fixed at 1.25V) for output voltage regulation in non-isolated applications.
12 COMP output Error amplifier output and PWM comparator input; open-drain output with internal 5K pull-up to 5V reference, used for loop compensation and PWM duty cycle control.
13 CS input Current sense input for cycle-by-cycle current mode control and over-current protection; if CS voltage exceeds 0.5V threshold, the OUT pin switches low immediately.
14 RT/SYNC passive Oscillator timing resistor pin and synchronization input; external resistor from RT to ARTN sets the switching frequency, and accepts narrow AC-coupled synchronization pulses from external clock.
15 SS input Soft-start input pin; connect an external capacitor to control the soft-start ramp rate via internal 10μA current source to achieve gradual power-on without output overshoot.
16 ARTN power_in Analog PWM supply return and ground reference for sensitive analog circuitry including the SMPS current limit amplifier and gate driver return.
