INTRODUCTION
The DS2720K evaluation kit makes performance evaluation, software development, and prototyping with
the DS2720 Li+ battery protector easy. The evaluation board interfaces to an IBM-compatible PC through
a DS9123 serial port adapter and RJ-11 cable connection. The provided CD-ROM contains all related
data sheets along with the evaluation software, which can be run under any Windows environment. The
DS2720K evaluation software gives the user complete control of all functions of the DS2720. Separate
control tabs allow the user access to all EEPROM memory and register locations. The evaluation board
circuit is designed to provide the user with a complete cell pack circuit and protect the DS2720 from ESD
damage. Kit demonstration boards will vary as they are improved upon over time. For information on the
demonstration board circuits refer to the documentation directory on the DS2720K CD-ROM.
