Abstract
The present disclosure relates to automatically detecting the power level of a connected power supply using a transient step load signature. This is a novel application using transient load response of a power supply (peak undershoot and overshoot voltage level) to detect Power Supply Unit (PSU) wattage level, such as to automatically provision, manage, indicate, and disable the remaining Power over Ethernet (PoE) ports based on available power from the PSU. This enables the use of any commoditized power supply adapter to meet auto provisioning requirement.
