General Description
The MAX2900–MAX2904 evaluation kits (EV kits) simpli-
fy testing of the MAX2900–MAX2904. The EV kits allow
evaluation of the MAX2900–MAX2904’s BPSK, OOK,
ASK, and FM modulations; and fully integrated VCO,
modulation filter, integrated frequency synthesizer, and
power-management features.
The EV kits provide 50Ω SMA connectors for IF inputs
and RF outputs. All critical peripheral components are
included, and all EV kits are fully assembled and tested.
Features
♦ Single-Supply Operation
♦ 50Ω SMA Connectors on all IF and RF Ports
♦ Baluns Included for Single-Ended RF Output
♦ Easy Evaluation of BPSK, OOK, ASK, and FM
Modulations
♦ Digital Control Synthesizer Programming
(MAX2900)
♦ Four Modes of Operation
