24-Port (4 Pair) Power Sourcing Equipment Reference Design for Multi-port

Applications

Design Guide: TIDA-050026-23881

24-Port (4 Pair) Power Sourcing Equipment Reference
Design for Multi-port Applications

Description

This reference design features an evaluation module
for the 24-port PSE system which contains a hardware
kit, a system firmware image, and a system firmware
GUI. The hardware kit consists of a motherboard
(PSEMTHR24EVM-081), an MSP430 daughtercard
(PSEMCUDAUEVM-082) and a PSE daughtercard
(TPS23881EVM-083). To evaluate the system (both
hardware and software), USB2ANY and MSP-FET
adapters are also needed.

NOTE:

The MSP430F5234 on PSEMCUDAUEVM-082

are programmed with pre-production firmware for EVM
testing purposes. Follow the instructions in this user's
guide to flash the latest firmware from

TI.com

before

evaluation.
