Abstract:

A novel high voltage detection circuit with a high accuracy and low temperature coefficient for Power over the Ethernet (PoE) application is presented. The proposed detection circuit uses a bandgap comparator to detect the input voltage without an extra comparator and a voltage reference circuit, which reduces the chip area and detection time. In order to overcome the effect of the Ethernet resistor and avoid the circulating change of the detection circuit between the detection state and classification state, the proposed circuit uses a feedback circuit to realize the hysteresis function. The proposed detection circuit is implemented in 0.5μm65 V BCD process which occupies an active area of 590μm×310 μm. The measured results show that the temperature coefficient of the threshold voltage is 26.5×10^-6／℃ over the temperature range of -40℃ to 125℃. According to the measured results of 20 chips, the average value of the threshold voltage is 11.9V±0.25V, with a standard deviation of 0.138V.
