The Si3400 is the first power-over-Ethernet powered device controller to integrate on-chip diode bridges, a transient surge suppressor and a switching regulator FET.

Silicon Laboratories has announced the industry's most highly integrated IEEE802.3af-compliant, power over Ethernet (PoE) controller for powered device (PD) applications The Si3400 is the only PD controller to integrate on-chip diode bridges, a transient surge suppressor and a switching regulator field effect transistor (FET)

The Si3400 controller's unprecedented level of integration simplifies PoE design efforts by dramatically reducing the total bill of materials (BOM),
