MAX15059 Evaluation Kit
Evaluates: MAX15059A/MAX15059B
General Description
The MAX15059 evaluation kit (EV kit) demonstrates
the MAX15059 APD biasing pulse-width modulation
(PWM) step-up DC-DC converter with an internal power
switch, current monitor, and adjustable current limiting.
The step-up converter switches at 400kHz. The EV kit
operates from a DC supply voltage of 2.8V to 5.5V and
is configured to deliver approximately 70V, and 0 to
4mA of current at the output. The output voltage can be
configured from VIN + 5V to 76V by replacing a resis-
tor or adjusting the CNTRL voltage. The EV kit dem-
onstrates the IC’s APD fast current-limit, undervoltage-
lockout (UVLO), and thermal-shutdown features.
The EV kit also features an APD input load-simula-
tor circuit for current monitoring and step-response
measurements.
The EV kit comes with the MAX15059AETE+ installed,
but can also be used to evaluate the MAX15059BETE+.
Warning: Voltages exceeding 42V may exist on the
VOUT, APD, MOUT, and PGND PCB pads.
