Datasheet

Evaluates: MAX16818
Clock Output
The MAX16818 EV kit also features a digital clock out-
put that is 180° out-of-phase with respect to the high-
side driver, N1. The clock output is available at the
CLKOUT PCB pad.
Jumper Selection
Input-Voltage Range (VIN)
Jumper JU1 selects the input-voltage range for the
MAX16818 EV kit (see Table 1 for shunt positions).
Output Enable (EN)
Jumper JU2 controls the output enable pin on the
MAX16818 IC. The MAX16818 output enable pin (EN)
is also connected to the overvoltage protection circuitry
on the EV kit (see Table 2 for shunt positions).
