Sounds like a custom chip to me. Had the same problem with another
company (I atleast recognised the company logo).... DOOF doesn't
sound like a part ref to me
I think your stuck unless you can identify the company. What's the
chip suppost to do?

Well, I was stuck... now *I* feel like the "DOOF." I pulled several
more units out of inventory and took them all apart until I found one
with a clear enough imprint to make out. That durn "fishhook" turns out
to be an incredibly badly imprinted outline of the state of Texas. [And
I *live* in Austin, TX.] Yep, it's a TI chip - and exactly as you
guessed... namely once I had the manufacturer, it was easy to figure out
the rest.

It's a TI TPS2375 PoE Ethernet powered device receiver. [If I am ever
elected lord high god of the known universe, one of my first royal
decrees is to make schematics availability MANDATORY for any commercial
product! <G>]

Thanks for the reply...
