Single-Pair-Ethernet technology (SPE, Single-Pair-Ethernet) describes the transmission of Ethernet through only a pair of copper cores. In addition to transmitting data through Ethernet, it can also simultaneously provide power to terminal devices through PoDL (power supply over data lines).
STMicroelectronics provides users with a reference design based on L3751, suitable for DC-DC converters with input voltage 36-72V DC, output voltage 12 VDC, and 10A.
The MAXREFDES1273 is a Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) powered device (PD) and an active clamp forward DC-DC converter (ACFC) that delivers up to 850mA at 48V from 39V to 57V supply voltage
