General Description
The MAX9730 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled
and tested PCB that uses the MAX9730 Class G power
amplifier to drive a bridge-tied-load (BTL) speaker in
portable audio applications. Designed to operate from
a 2.7V to 5.5VDC power supply, the EV kit accepts a
single-ended or differential input signal. The EV kit pro-
vides a fully differential output capable of delivering
2.4W into an 8 speaker.

Quick Start
Recommended Equipment
5V, 2A power supply
Audio source (i.e., CD player, MP3 player, etc.)
One 8 speaker
Procedure
The MAX9730 EV kit is fully assembled and tested.
Follow the steps listed below to verify board operation.
Caution: Do not turn on the power supply until all
connections are completed.
1) Install a shunt across pins 1-2 of jumper JU1 (EV kit ON).
2) Connect the 8 speaker across the OUT- and
OUT+ pads.
3) Connect the ground terminal of the power supply to
the GND pad and the positive terminal to the VCC pad.
4) Connect the positive terminal of the audio source to
the IN+ pad.
5) Connect the negative terminal of the audio source
to the IN- pad. Connect the IN- pad to the GND
pad if the audio source is single-ended.
6) Connect the ground terminal of the audio source to
the GND pad.
7) Turn on the audio source.
8) Turn on the power supply.
