STMicroelectronics Evaluation Board for PM8805 for Wireless Access Points

This reference design represents a 3.3 V, 20 A converter solution ideal for various applications including wireless access points, supplied with a PoE-PD interface and a DC-DC active clamp forward converter. The PoE-PD interface is based on the PM8805 system in package device with two active bridges and a Powered Device (PD) interface. It can be used in all medium-to-high power 2P and 4P high efficiency PoE and PoE+ applications.
The DC-DC active clamp forward converter is designed around the PM8804 PWM controller, which is an integrated solution for smart and efficient 48 V converters, featuring a programmable oscillator for the switching frequency, adjustable slope compensation, dual complementary low-side drivers with programmable dead time, programmable soft start, soft turn off and a programmable current sense blanking time.
