Abstract
A novel system for supplying power to a powered device over a communication link, such as an Ethernet link, has a current control mechanism that combines low-side current control circuitry with high-side current control circuitry. The low-side current control circuitry is coupled to a low-side power supply line for controlling low-side current flowing in the low-side power supply line. The high-side current control circuitry is coupled to a high-side power supply line for controlling high-side current in the high-side power supply line.
