7.3.3 Internal Pass MOSFET

RTN pin provides the negative power return path for the load. It is internally connected to the drain of the PoE hotswap MOSFET, and the DC-DC controller return. RTN must be treated as a local reference plane (ground plane) for the DC-DC controller and converter primary to maintain signal integrity.

Once VVPD exceeds the UVLO threshold, the internal pass MOSFET pulls RTN to VSS. Inrush limiting prevents the RTN current from exceeding a nominal value of about 140 mA until the bulk capacitance (CBULK in Figure 8-1) is fully charged. Inrush ends when the RTN current drops below about 125 mA. The RTN current is subsequently limited to about 0.45 A.

If RTN ever exceeds about 12.3 V for longer than 400 μs, then the PD returns to inrush limiting.
