MAX1813 Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX1813 evaluation kit (EV kit) demonstrates the
high-power, dynamically adjustable notebook CPU
application circuit. This DC-DC converter steps down
high-voltage batteries and/or AC adapters, generating
a precision, low-voltage CPU core VCC rail. The
MAX1813 EV kit meets the Intel mobile CPU鈥檚 transient
voltage specification (IMVP-II/Coppermine), using volt-
age positioning to minimize the output-capacitor
requirements. The MAX1813 has an internal multiplexer
which accepts three unique 5-bit VID DAC codes corre-
sponding to performance, battery, and suspend
modes. Precision slew-rate control provides 鈥渏ust-in-
time鈥?arrival at the new DAC setting, minimizing surge
currents to and from the battery.
This fully assembled and tested circuit board provides
a digitally adjustable 0.6V to 2.0V output from a 7V to
24V battery input range. It delivers up to 22A output
current. The EV kit operates at 300kHz switching fre-
quency and has superior line- and load-transient
response.
