SI3471A-A01-IMR Descripción general

The Skyworks Solutions SI3471A-A01-IMR is a single-channel Power over Ethernet (PoE) Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) controller supporting IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt standards, delivering up to 90W per port in a 38-pin QFN (5x7 mm) package.

A PoE PSE controller is the power-management device that lives on the switch or injector side of a PoE link. It is responsible for safely discovering whether a Powered Device (PD) is connected at the far end of the Ethernet cable, classifying its power requirement, and only then closing the internal or external MOSFET path to deliver power. The PSE controller hierarchy sits under power management ICs, and the Si3471 sits in its top tier because it implements the 802.3bt Type 4 / Class 8 specification, which raises per-port power to 90W using all four twisted pairs.

Key features of the Si3471 include full IEEE 802.3bt compliance for detection, connection check, classification, and power-on sequencing, single-signature and dual-signature PD support, and operation across an industrial -40C to +85C temperature range. The controller supervises the pass MOSFETs and manages inrush current limiting, overcurrent protection, and fault reporting, all functions mandated by the IEEE standard and required for interoperability with certified PDs.

Technically, the Si3471 follows the IEEE 802.3bt state machine for detection (two-point DC discovery), connection check, classification (including Layer 2 LLDP-based power negotiation handled at system level), and controlled power-on. The datasheet illustrates operation waveforms for both single-signature and dual-signature PD topologies, which determine whether power is delivered on two or four pairs and how the PD presents its detection signature.

Typical applications include enterprise Ethernet switches, PoE midspan injectors, security camera and wireless access point infrastructure, and industrial networking equipment that must power 4-pair Class 8 loads such as PTZ cameras, video phones, and thin clients.

A key design consideration is thermal management of the external pass MOSFETs at 90W: at a 54V PSE rail and typical PoE cable resistance, the controller itself dissipates little power, but Rds(on) of the external FETs directly drives port efficiency and connector temperature rise.

This page synthesizes distributor pricing, verified specifications, ordering-option differences, and practical design notes not found in the manufacturer datasheet alone.

Aplicaciones típicas

SI3471A-A01-IMR es adecuado para 6 aplicacións: IEEE 802.3bt Ethernet Switch Ports, PoE Midspan Injectors, IP Security Camera Infrastructure, Wireless Access Point Backhaul Power, Industrial Network Switches, Building Automation and Smart Lighting over PoE.

🌐

IEEE 802.3bt Ethernet Switch Ports

The SI3471A-A01-IMR fits single-port or per-port supervisory PoE circuitry in enterprise and industrial switches that must deliver up to 90W per port under IEEE 802.3bt Type 4. Its compliance with 802.3af/at/bt detection, connection check, classification, and power-on lets one port design service legacy 15.4W IP phones and modern 90W Class 8 loads interchangeably. The controller manages external pass MOSFETs and inrush limiting per the IEEE standard, keeping the switch port interoperable with any certified PD. In a 4-pair design, engineers pair the Si3471 with PoE-rated magnetics and diode bridges; the 3V to 3.6V supply range matches common switch-system 3.3V rails, removing an auxiliary regulator from the BOM.

⚡

PoE Midspan Injectors

Midspan injectors add PoE power to existing Ethernet runs without replacing the switch, and the SI3471A-A01-IMR is purpose-built for this single-port role. Because the injector delivers power on exactly one port, a single-channel controller keeps cost and board area minimal while still supporting the full 90W 802.3bt budget for high-power cameras and radios. The Si3471 datasheet documents the complete detection, connection-check, classification, and power-on waveform sequence for single-signature and dual-signature PDs, which is precisely the interop surface a midspan must get right. Its -40C to +85C rating suits injector housings mounted outdoors or in ceiling spaces where ambient temperatures rise above office conditions.

🎥

IP Security Camera Infrastructure

PTZ cameras with heaters, wipers, and IR illuminators routinely draw 60W to 90W, which only IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 PSEs can deliver over four pairs. The SI3471A-A01-IMR provides that 90W capability with standards-compliant classification so the camera can negotiate its true power class. In a recorder or NVR-side injector, the controller protects the cable plant: inrush limiting and overcurrent supervision per 802.3bt prevent damage from shorted or mis-wired camera drops. The industrial -40C to +85C operating range aligns with surveillance enclosures in unconditioned outdoor sites, and the compact 5x7 mm QFN-38 keeps the power section small enough for dense multi-camera injector blades.

📡

Wireless Access Point Backhaul Power

Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7 enterprise access points with multi-radio aggregation commonly need more than the 30W of 802.3at, making 802.3bt PSE capability in the aggregation switch or injector mandatory. The SI3471A-A01-IMR supplies up to 90W with full Type 4 classification, letting an AP draw the power its radios require while remaining backward-compatible when cabled to a smaller PD. Placed in a wall-plate or ceiling-injector product, the controller's 3V to 3.6V digital supply integrates directly with the system 3.3V rail. Engineers should size the external pass MOSFETs for the full 90W since the controller supervises rather than integrates the power path, keeping thermal losses in components chosen for the budget.

🏭

Industrial Network Switches

Factory-floor switches must power IP intercoms, barcode readers, and edge PLCs over long cable runs while surviving harsh temperatures, and the SI3471A-A01-IMR addresses both needs with its -40C to +85C rating and full 802.3af/at/bt protocol support. In DIN-rail or panel-mounted industrial switches, the controller's standards-mandated detection prevents applying 54V to non-PoE devices sharing the same cable infrastructure, a frequent failure mode in mixed industrial networks. The 90W per-port budget covers the heaviest industrial PDs, while backward compatibility protects legacy 802.3af sensors. Its RoHS-compliant QFN-38 assembly is compatible with standard industrial SMT processes, and the IM tray option suits low-volume contract manufacturing common in industrial equipment.

💡

Building Automation and Smart Lighting over PoE

PoE-based building systems - LED luminaires, occupancy sensors, door controllers, and HVAC actuators - are powered from the same structured cabling as data, and the SI3471A-A01-IMR gives a PoE lighting manager or aggregator standards-compliant 90W ports for high-output fixtures. Correct 802.3bt classification ensures each luminaire negotiates its actual draw, allowing the system controller to budget total power across many ports without oversubscription trips. The controller's detection and connection-check stages protect non-PoE devices on shared cabling. With a 3V to 3.6V supply drawn from the manager's 3.3V rail and a small 5x7 mm QFN footprint, the port electronics fit dense multi-channel power distribution boards typical of PoE lighting racks.

What is the SI3471A-A01-IMR?
The SI3471A-A01-IMR is a single-channel Power over Ethernet Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) controller from Skyworks Solutions. It supports IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt, and delivers up to 90W per port in a 38-pin QFN (5x7 mm) package. According to the Skyworks Si3471 datasheet, it handles detection, connection check, classification, and power-on for both single-signature and dual-signature PDs.
What is the price of SI3471A-A01-IMR?
As of 2026-10-19, SI3471A-A01-IMR pricing starts at approximately $5.89 per unit at LCSC. Volume pricing at 1000-piece quantities typically falls to the low-$4 range from distributors such as DigiKey, Mouser, and LCSC. Octopart lists 4 distributors carrying the part, so comparing quotes across distributors is recommended for production volumes.
Where to buy SI3471A-A01-IMR online?
SI3471A-A01-IMR can be purchased from DigiKey, Mouser, LCSC, and JLCPCB, with availability data also aggregated on Octopart, which reports 4 stocking distributors. DigiKey states the part ships same-day for in-stock orders. XAIPART also supplies this part; request a quote for production quantities and lead-time confirmation.
Is SI3471A-A01-IMR in stock?
Yes, the SI3471A-A01-IMR is listed as in stock at multiple distributors as of October 2026, including DigiKey (ships today per its product page) and LCSC (in-stock listing C3189385). Because PoE controller stock fluctuates with networking demand, verify real-time inventory on the distributor page before placing volume orders.
What is the difference between SI3471A-A01-IMR and SI3471A-A01-IM?
The only difference is packaging: the IMR suffix denotes the tape-and-reel option for automated pick-and-place assembly, while IM is the tray-packaged version. According to the Si3471 datasheet Ordering Guide, adding an R to the part number selects tape and reel (e.g., Si3471A-A01-IM or Si3471A-A01-IMR). Electrically and mechanically the die, QFN-38 package, and specifications are identical.
Which PoE standards does SI3471A-A01-IMR support?
The SI3471A-A01-IMR supports IEEE 802.3af (PoE, 15.4W), IEEE 802.3at (PoE+, 30W), and IEEE 802.3bt (PoE++, up to 90W per port). Per the Skyworks datasheet, it implements the full 802.3bt sequence of detection, connection check, classification, and power on, with waveform support for both single-signature and dual-signature powered devices.
Is SI3471A-A01-IMR suitable for a 90W 802.3bt switch port design?
Yes, the SI3471A-A01-IMR is designed for exactly this use case: it is a single-port 90W 802.3bt Type 4 PSE controller. Mouser categorizes it as a Power Switch IC for POE/LAN, Single PoE Port, 90W, 802.3bt PSE. For a 90W design you must pair it with appropriately rated external pass MOSFETs and a 4-pair magnetics and diode-bridge front end.
What is the best drop-in replacement for SI3471A-A01-IMR?
The closest same-family replacement is the SI3471A-A01-IM, which is the identical die and QFN-38 (5x7) package supplied in trays rather than tape and reel - pin-to-pin and electrically 100% identical. No cross-brand pin-compatible drop-in alternative was identified in our cross-reference search of DigiKey, onsemi, and TI cross-reference data, so board redesign would be required to use another vendor's PoE PSE controller.
What is the SI3471A-A01-IMR vs TI TPS2388 comparison?
Both are multi-protocol PSE controllers, but the TI TPS2388 is a multi-port (8-channel) 802.3bt controller while the SI3471A-A01-IMR is a single-channel controller, and they use different packages, so they are not drop-in interchangeable. Choose the Si3471 for one-port injector designs or when its specific detection/classification feature set fits; choose the TPS2388 when you need up to 8 managed PoE++ ports from one IC with I2C port management.
When should I choose SI3471A-A01-IMR over a multi-port PSE controller?
Choose the SI3471A-A01-IMR when your product delivers PoE on one or a few independently designed ports - such as midspan injectors, industrial gateways, or per-port modular switch line cards - where a dedicated single-channel controller simplifies layout and BOM per port. Choose a multi-port controller (e.g., TI TPS2388 family) when a central switch must manage many ports with shared microcontroller supervision, since per-channel cost and I2C integration favor that architecture at scale.
Where to download the SI3471A-A01-IMR datasheet PDF?
The Si3471 datasheet PDF is available directly from Skyworks at skyworksinc.com under the public data-sheets path (Si3471.pdf), and mirror copies are hosted by Mouser as Silabs_Si3471_DS.pdf. The datasheet covers the IEEE 802.3bt detection, connection check, classification, and power-on sequences plus the Ordering Guide that defines the IM/IMR packaging suffixes.
What is the operating temperature range of SI3471A-A01-IMR?
The SI3471A-A01-IMR operates from -40C to +85C, as specified on the JLCPCB and distributor product listings. This industrial temperature range makes it suitable for outdoor PoE infrastructure such as security cameras, wireless access points, and industrial switches installed in uncontrolled environments, provided the external pass MOSFETs and diode bridges are thermally rated for the same range at 90W loads.
What are the key specifications of SI3471A-A01-IMR that engineers should know?
Key specifications: single-channel IEEE 802.3af/at/bt PSE controller; maximum 90W per port (802.3bt Type 4); 38-pin QFN package, 5x7 mm; supply voltage 3V to 3.6V; operating temperature -40C to +85C; supports single-signature and dual-signature PDs; performs detection, connection check, classification, and power-on per the IEEE standard; RoHS compliant; supplied in tape-and-reel (IMR) with 2500-unit standard packaging.

Guía de selección

Choose the SI3471A-A01-IMR when you need a standards-compliant single-port PSE controller delivering up to 90W under IEEE 802.3bt, with full backward compatibility to 802.3af and 802.3at - ideal for midspan injectors, per-port switch line cards, and industrial PoE equipment. Select the SI3471A-A01-IM (same die, tray packaging) for prototyping or manual assembly lines. If your product is a large managed switch with many ports under central I2C supervision, a multi-port controller such as the TI TPS2388 family will be more economical per port, but it is not pin-compatible, so a redesign is required. If your PD load never exceeds 30W, a cheaper 802.3at-only PSE controller may suffice; the Si3471 earns its cost only when 4-pair, 60-90W delivery and dual-signature PD support are genuine requirements.

Diferenciadores clave

  • Full IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 support at 90W (frente a SI3471A-A01-IM)
  • Single-channel simplicity for injector designs (frente a Multi-port PSE controllers (e.g., TI TPS2388, 8 channels))
  • Dual-signature and single-signature PD support (frente a Legacy 802.3at-only PSE controllers)

Notas de diseño

Estimated: at a 90W 802.3bt load on a 54V PSE rail, port current is roughly 1.7A, so the external pass MOSFETs dominate losses - a FET pair with 20 mOhm total Rds(on) dissipates about 2 x 1.7A^2 x 10 mOhm = 58 mW, while a 60 mOhm part would dissipate over 170 mW per FET. Select low-Rds(on), avalanche-rated MOSFETs and give them 1 oz or better copper pours; the Si3471 itself supervises rather than passes the main power, so its QFN-38 needs only normal PCB cooling.

The Si3471 implements the IEEE 802.3bt state machine (detection, connection check, classification, power on) for both single-signature and dual-signature PDs - verify which PD signature type your load presents, because 4-pair dual-signature PDs require the full Type 4 front end (four diode bridges and both pair-set MOSFET switches). Also confirm the ordering suffix: IMR is tape and reel for automated assembly; IM is tray. Mixing suffixes on an SMT line will cause feeder errors.

Supply the controller from the system 3.3V rail, which sits inside its specified 3V to 3.6V operating window. Decouple VDD with a 0.1 uF ceramic placed within 2 mm of the pin, and keep the detection/classification sense resistor paths (per the Si3471 datasheet typical application) as short, Kelvin-routed traces so 802.3bt classification accuracy is not degraded by PCB IR drop on shared ground returns.
