MAX1724 Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX1724 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled
and tested surface-mount circuit board that contains
two separate boost switching-regulator circuits. The
left-side circuit contains a MAX1724 with a preset 3.3V
output. Other preset voltages of 2.7V, 3.0V, or 5.0V are
also available. The right-side circuit contains a
MAX1722, which has an adjustable output voltage. This
circuit鈥檚 output is set for 3.6V. All devices regulate with
input voltages from 0.91V to V
OUT
, making them ideal
for 1- or 2-cell alkaline and NiMH battery applications.
The right-side circuit may also be used to evaluate the
MAX1723, which features a shutdown (SHDN) mode.
The MAX1722/MAX1724 has a BATT pin, which lowers
the guaranteed startup voltage from 1.2V to 0.91V.
The MAX1722/MAX1723/MAX1724 feature synchronous
rectification and ultra-low (1.5碌A(chǔ) typ) quiescent current
for maximum efficiency and long battery life. Operation
up to 200kHz allows tiny surface-mount components.

Note:
Please indicate that you are using the MAX1724 when
contacting these component suppliers.
Quick Start
The MAX1724 EV kit is fully assembled and tested.
Follow these steps to verify board operation.
Do not
turn on the power supply until all connections are
completed.
3.3V Output (left side):
1) Connect a 0.91V to 3.3V supply to the VBATT pad.
Connect the supply ground to the GND pad.
2) Connect a voltmeter to the VOUT pad.
3) Verify there is a shunt across pins 1 and 2 of
jumper JU1 (SHDN), thus enabling the MAX1724.
4) Turn on the power supply and verify that the output
is at 3.3V.
Note:
Quantities are for both circuits.
