MAX8660評估板

MAX8660 evaluation kit (EV kit)

The MAX8660 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled and tested PCB that accepts an input from 2.6V to 6.0V and provides the output voltages and power-management features used by applications processors. The MAX8660 integrates four step-down DC-DC regulators and four LDO linear regulators. Additional features include on/off control for outputs, low-battery detection, reset output, and a 2-wire I2C serial interface.

The MAX8660 evaluation system (EV system) includes a MAX8660 EV kit and a Maxim CMAXQUSB+ serialinterface board. The CMAXQUSB+ board connects to a PC’s USB port and allows the transfer of I2C to the MAX8660 EV kit.

The MAX8660 EV kit comes with the MAX8660 installed, but can also be used to evaluate the MAX8660A, MAX8660B, and MAX8661.
