[0002] Currently, in the field of electronic devices, Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology is widely used in devices such as network cameras and wireless access points (APs) because it can transmit data and power simultaneously through network cables. This not only simplifies the wiring requirements of the devices but also improves the flexibility of installation.

[0003] However, in practical applications, PoE devices often require backup power from external adapters to ensure continuous operation when PoE power is unavailable or interrupted. Existing external adapter power supply solutions typically only support a 12V input voltage, while the standard PoE operating voltage is usually 48V, resulting in poor overall compatibility between external adapters and the PoE standard power supply.

[0004] Furthermore, existing technologies for connecting external adapters to PoE power receiving circuits fail to fully utilize the DC-DC converter module within the PoE circuit. This often necessitates the design of separate adapter circuits, limiting the adapter's input voltage range and reducing circuit resource utilization, making it difficult to meet the flexible power supply requirements of modern electronic devices. Therefore, achieving compatibility between external adapters and PoE power supply while simplifying the circuit structure without affecting the normal operation of the PoE circuit has become an urgent technical challenge.

Any changes or adjustments to their relative relationships, without substantially altering the technical content, shall also be considered within the scope of implementation of this utility model.

[0054] Combined with appendix Figure 1 The specific implementation of this embodiment will be described in detail below. (Appendix) Figure 1 The diagram shows the circuit structure for dual power supply via PoE_PD and adapter, with key components and their connections labeled. The selection, connection method, and operating principle of each component are described below with reference to the accompanying diagrams.

[0055] Please refer to Figure 1 The first rectifier bridge D1, the second rectifier bridge D2, and the third rectifier bridge D3 all use MB6S single-phase bridge rectifiers. This model features low power consumption and high voltage withstand capability, meeting the 48V input voltage requirement of the PoE standard. The PoE power receiving module PD can use, but is not limited to, the TPS23754 chip compliant with the IEEE 802.3af / at standard. This chip has detection, classification, and voltage regulation functions, ensuring input voltage stability and meeting system requirements. The DC-DC converter module PD uses the LM2596 wide-input-range DC-DC converter, supporting an input voltage range of 48V, with an output voltage that can be set to 12V or 5V according to system requirements. The input terminals DC1 and DC2 of the external adapter are designed to support 48V input voltage, consistent with the PoE standard operating voltage, thus achieving power supply compatibility.

[0056] Specifically, the input terminals of the first rectifier bridge D1 are connected to the POE1+ and POE1- signals respectively through test points TP1 and TP2, and the input terminals of the second rectifier bridge D2 are connected to the POE2+ and POE2- signals respectively through test points TP3 and TP4. The positive output terminals of the first rectifier bridge D1 and the second rectifier bridge D2 are connected to the D+ node, and the negative output terminals of the first rectifier bridge D1 and the second rectifier bridge D2 are connected to the D- node. The D+ and D- nodes, as the positive and negative nodes in the POE PD circuit, are connected to the input terminals of the POE receiving module PD, respectively, to receive the rectified POE voltage and perform preliminary processing.

[0057] The output of the PoE receiving module PD is connected to the input of the DC-DC converter module PD, and the output of the DC-DC converter module PD is connected to the power output module PWR_OUT, ultimately providing a stable operating voltage to the external system. The AC input of the third rectifier bridge D3 is connected to the DC1 and DC2 signals of the external adapter through test points TP5 and TP6, respectively. The positive output of the third rectifier bridge D3 is connected to the D+ node, and the negative output is connected to the circuit ground GND. This connection method allows the input voltage of the external adapter to be directly connected to the D+ node of the PoE PD circuit without the need for additional adapter circuit design.

[0058] Based on the circuit structure described above, the circuit operates as follows in PoE power supply mode:

[0059] When the Ethernet line provides PoE power, the PoE1+ and PoE1- signals are rectified by the first rectifier bridge D1 and output, while the PoE2+ and PoE2- signals are rectified by the second rectifier bridge D2 and output. The positive output terminals of the first rectifier bridge D1 and the second rectifier bridge D2 are connected to the D+ node, and the negative output terminals are connected to the D- node. The rectified voltage is input to the PoE powered module PD through the D+ and D- nodes. The PoE powered module PD detects and classifies the input voltage, confirms that it conforms to the PoE power supply standard, and then transmits the voltage to the DC-DC converter module PD. The DC-DC converter module PD converts the input voltage into the stable operating voltage required by the system, such as 12V or 5V, and supplies power to the external system through the power output module PWR_OUT. During this process, since the external adapter is not connected, there is no voltage input at the input terminal of the third rectifier bridge D3, so it is in a reverse cutoff state and will not interfere with the normal operation of the PoE PD circuit.

[0060] Based on the above circuit structure, the operating principle of the circuit in the external adapter power supply mode is as follows;

[0061] When the external adapter is connected to DC1 and DC2 signals, regardless of the adapter's positive and negative terminals, the third rectifier bridge D3 can convert the input voltage into a DC voltage with the positive terminal output to the D+ node and the negative terminal output to the circuit ground GND through full-wave rectification. Since the D+ and D- nodes are both connected to the input terminal of the PoE power receiving module PD, the rectified voltage is input to the PoE power receiving module PD through the D+ node. After the PoE power receiving module PD detects that the input voltage meets the requirements, it starts its internal circuit and transmits the voltage to the DC-DC converter module PD DC-DC. The DC-DC converter module PD DC-DC converts the input voltage into the operating voltage required by the system and supplies power to the external system through the power output module PWR_OUT.

[0062] During this process, the detection function of the POE power receiving module PD ensures the stability of the input voltage, while the DC-DC converter module PD achieves accurate voltage conversion.

[0063] During the actual debugging process, the design of test points TP1 to TP6 facilitates circuit debugging. TP1 and TP2 can monitor the input status of POE1+ and POE1- signals, TP3 and TP4 can monitor the input status of POE2+ and POE2- signals, and TP5 and TP6 can monitor the input status of external adapter DC1 and DC2 signals. These test points make signal detection in the circuit more intuitive, helping to quickly locate and repair faults. Furthermore, the overall circuit connection is simplified and clear, further reducing the difficulty of debugging.

[0064] In summary, the technical solution of this embodiment optimizes the connection method between the external adapter and the PoE PD circuit, avoiding the need to design a separate adapter circuit. It makes full use of the functions of the PoE power receiving module PD and the DC-DC converter module PD, significantly simplifying the overall circuit structure. At the same time, it achieves dual power supply compatibility between PoE power supply and external adapter power supply, solving the problems of limited input voltage, high circuit complexity and low resource utilization in the prior art. It is suitable for various PoE devices that require flexible power supply.

[0065] The design of the third rectifier bridge D3 enables the external adapter input to be connected without polarity separation, improving power supply flexibility. Simultaneously, the reverse cutoff characteristic of the third rectifier bridge D3 allows for independent operation of PoE power supply and external adapter power supply, ensuring that the two power supply modes do not interfere with each other.

[0066] Although the present invention has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, some modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, all such modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
