EMC Compliant 10/100-Mbps Ethernet PHY Reference Design With IEEE
802.3at Type-1 (
≤
12.95 W) PoE-PD
In Europe, Comite International Special des Perturbations Radioelectriques (CISPR) and European Norm
(EN) regulations provide the guidelines for EMI testing. For example, CISPR 11 and EN 55011 regulations
apply to scientific and medical products. CISPR 14 and EN 55014 apply to electric-motor-based products,
while CISPR 22 and EN 55022 apply to IT equipment.
This reference design is targeted for information technology equipment product sectors as highlighted in
. So, the applicable test standards are CISPR 22 (EN 55022) and FCC Part 15 Subpart B - Class
A and B limits.

The radiated emissions maximum measurement frequency is chosen based on the highest frequency of
the internal clock source of the EUT. The following list shows the clock source used in the reference
design on the PD side board (DUT):
•
TPS23755 PoE-PD DC/DC switching frequency = approximately 500 kHz
•
XTAL1 = 25 MHz for DP83825I
•
REF CLOCK OUT = 50 MHz (Used for MAC interface; all RMII signals are disabled in this case)
•
XTAL2 = 4 MHz for MSP430
Therefore, the measurement frequency band that is applicable for radiation testing is from 30 MHz to 1
GHz as highlighted in
NOTE:
Since this reference design does not have a MAC, any activity on the RMII (including 50-
MHz reference clock output) was disabled during the radiated emission testing.
