DEMO MANUAL DC1843B

DESCRIPTION

DC1842B and DC1680B

LTC4290B/LTC4271 

8-Port PSE with Digital Isolation 

Demonstration kit DC1843B is an 8-port IEEE 802.3at 

Type 2 power sourcing equipment (PSE) composed of a 

DC1842B daughter card and DC1680B motherboard. The 

kit is used for evaluation of the 

LTC4290B

 and 

LTC4271

 PSE 

chipset. Up to 8 powered devices (PDs) can be connected 

and powered from this system using a single power supply. 

A DC590 is connected to the DC1843 for I

2

C interfacing 

with QuikEval™. This demonstration manual provides a 

Quick Start Procedure, a DC1842B overview, a DC1680B 

overview, schematics, and layout printouts. Refer to the 

Layout Guide for Demonstration Circuit 1842B when

The DC1842B has increased surge protection over the 

DC1842A. The DC1680B uses discrete Ethernet transform-

ers while the DC1680A has an integrated 12-port RJ45 jack.
