The Si3471 is a fully autonomous Power over Ethernet (PoE) Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) device. It is fully IEEE 802.3bt compliant and compaTIble with IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at. It is opTImized for use in PSE mid-spans and injectors that do not require a host or MCU. The Si3471 integrates one Ethernet port with the IEEE-required powered device (PD) detecTIon and classificaTIon functionality. In addition, it features powered device (PD) disconnect using dc sense algorithms and a robust multipoint detection algorithm. Intelligent protection circuitry includes input undervoltage detection, output current limit, and short-circuit protection. The Si3471 works autonomously and does not require a host or MCU to program it. The Si3471 is programmed for maximum available power by pulling its configration pins high or low.

The Si3471 operates autonomously, without any external host or MCU control. All power on reset and brownout reset circuitry is internal.

Upon VDD and VDDA being applied, an internal pull up sets the RESETb pin high, releasing the Si3471 from reset. The Si3471 thenreads the PWRAVL pins and configures itself to grant the maximum class set by the PWRAVL pins. The multi-point detection algorithmruns until a valid PoE PD signature is detected and then proceeds with classification. If the Si3471 is configured to grant the class thePD requests, it internally sets the current limit to the class requested by the PD and proceeds to grant power. Otherwise, the Si3471follows the IEEE 802.3bt specification for power demotion. The Si3471 automatically detects when a PD disconnects and restarts thedetection process, continuously looking for a valid detection signature. If any error or fault condition occurs, the Si3471 removes powerfrom the PD and automatically restarts the detection process.

The Si3471 includes an LED pin for driving a status indicator LED. If a status LED is not used, then the pin can be left floating. The LEDoperation is shown in the table below and is not configurable.
