PD64012
12-CHANNEL PoE MANAGER
Automatic mode – in this mode the PD64012 PoE
Managers communicate with the host CPU, through
an isolated I
2
C bus. The PD64012 SPI bus is
dedicated
for
internal
PD64012s (for power management), as illustrated in
Figure 4.
Anyone of the devices (for example, PD64012 #00)
may be configured as Master, while the others are
Slaves. This Master/Slave configuration only affects
the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) bus. It is critical
that only one of them be set-up as a Master, with the
others acting as Slaves, in order to avoid SPI clock
and data I/Os contentions.

Mode Configuration Method
The PoE Manager’s configuration is done via the ASIC_INI pin, according to the following table.
The ASIC_INI analog signal is converted into a 10-bit register (A/D). Once a hard Reset pulse is detected, the data
is latched into an internal mode register.

Notes:
In the Auto mode – the PD64012 is communicating with the host via I

C.
In the Enhanced mode – the PD64012 is communicating with the controller via SPI.
Block Diagram Description
(see Figure 5)
The PD64002 PoE Manager complies with all requirements of IEEE standard 802.3af-2003, for detection. The
device has been designed around two major sections:
1. A common Digital section, that serves all 12 channels
2. Twelve separate and identical channels for driving ports.
