Description
The EVALPM8803-FWD is a demonstration board
implementing an IEEE802.3at compatible
interface together with a self driven synchronous
active clamp forward converter based on
PM8803.
The board is designed to work up to 30 W, and
with minimal changes the output voltage can be
selected either 5 V or 3.3 V. For sake of flexibility,
alternative footprint have been foreseen tor the
main component (MOS, transformer, etc.).
It is possible to connect auxiliary sources to one
of the 2 jacks in the EVALPM8803-FWD like in
real application design. In one case thanks to the
PM8803 feature, prevalence of the auxiliary
source can be guaranteed.
Three LEDs give indication of:
the converter is running
an external auxiliary source is connected to
the board
a type 2 PSE is connected to the board.
