Si3459-KIT Si3459 EVALUATION KIT USER’S GUIDE

PublishTime：2017-11-21

The Si3459 16-port evaluation kit (Si3459-KIT) is intended for Power over Ethernet (PoE) Power SourcingEquipment (PSE) system designers interested in evaluating the 8-port Si3459 PSE controller.The Si3459 is controlled through an I2C (or SMBus) interface. For convenience in evaluation, a graphical userinterface (GUI) is provided, giving an easy-to-use visual display and control of the Si3459 I2C registers. Theevaluation kit assumes the user has access to a PC to control the evaluation board using the provided GUI.The user is also responsible for providing an appropriate high-voltage power supply. The power supply should be45 to 57 V for normal PoE or 51 to 57 V for PoE+. The Si3459 can supply over 30 W to each port. Thus, the twoSi3459 controllers for the 16-port demo system can provide over 480 W of total power. While the classification andactual current consumption of each port is available, the demo GUI interacts with the Si3459 on a per-port basisand does not implement system-level power management. Contact Silicon Laboratories for more information aboutsystem-level power management options.The Si3459-KIT kit has been thoroughly tested for standards compliance and interoperability. Contact SiliconLaboratories for test reports using Sifos PoE test equipment and University of New Hampshire PoE standardscompliance and interoperability reports.

Si3459 16-port evaluation board with connector for an external 50 V power supply. The power supply must be capable of supplying the required amount of power for all PoE loads being connected. The board is populated with Si3459 parts;RJ-45 connector board configured as Power over Ethernet mid-span injector with gigabit Ethernet pass-through;20-wire cable connects the Si3459 evaluation board to the RJ-45 con-nector board;USB to I2C (or SMBus) translator board. This board is preprogrammed to support I2C transactions. The label on this 2”x 2” board is “PoE USB Adapter;USB cable to connect to a host PC;Powered Device evaluation board configured to provide a Class 3 signa-ture;Powered Device evaluation board configured to provide a Class 4 signa-ture;Configurable load board;Nuts for attaching load boards to powered device evaluation boards;Power connector to fit EVB J3;Ethernet cable to connect the Si3402 evaluation boards to the connector board;Software drivers for the USB to I2C adapter and a GUI for the Si3459 registers on a CD-ROM. Applicable notes and data sheets are also included
