Datasheet
General Description
The MAX14830 evaluation kit (EV kit) provides a proven
design to evaluate the MAX14830 quad-channel univer-
sal asynchronous receiver-transmitter (UART) IC. Each
UART contains 128 words of receive and transmit first-in/
first-out (FIFO) buffer that can be controlled through the
SPI or I
2
C interface. Each of the four UARTs are selected
through SPI or I
2
C in-band addressing.
Each of the four UARTs can interface with an IO-Link
M
master transceiver or an RS-485/RS-232 multiprotocol
transceiver. The EV kit contains on-board IO-Link master
transceivers, RS-485/RS-232 multiprotocol transceivers,
and double-pole/double-throw (DPDT) switches are used to
select between the IO link and RS-485/RS-232 transceivers.
The EV kit operates from a +3.3V and a +24V DC supply
and requires 100mA of current from each supply. This
EV kit requires a user-supplied SPI/I
2
C controller and
software.
The EV kit comes with a MAX14830ETM+ installed.
