MAX1501 Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX1501 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a complete, fully
assembled and tested circuit board that demonstrates
the highly integrated MAX1501 linear battery charger
for a single-cell lithium-ion (Li+) or a 3-cell NiMH/NiCd
battery. The EV kit safely charges a single Li+ battery to
4.1V or 4.2V or a 3-cell NiMH/NiCd to 4.5V or 4.95V
(4.95V must collaborate with the microprocessor con-
trol). The EV kit accepts a power-supply input of 4.5V to
13V, but disables charging when the input voltage
exceeds 6.5V. Jumpers on the EV kit allow adjustments
to the total charging time, battery voltage levels, top-off
current, die temperature regulation levels, and charging
modes. LEDs on the board indicate the status of the
charging cycle.
