MAX4103 Evaluation Kit
_______________General Description
The MAX4103 evaluation kit (EV kit) simplifies
evaluation of the MAX4103 high-speed, low-power,
broadcast-quality video amplifier. The EV kit circuit
demonstrates the MAX4103 in the noninverting
configuration, set to a gain of 2V/V.
The EV kit comes with the MAX4103 installed, but it can
also be used to evaluate the MAX4102. Simply order a
MAX4102 free sample, replace the MAX4103 with the
MAX4102 on the EV board, and change the gain-
setting resistors for the desired gain.

_________________________Quick Start
The MAX4103 EV kit is fully assembled and tested.
Follow these steps to verify board operation.
1) The circuit requires supply voltages of 鹵5V. Connect
these supplies to the corresponding pads marked
V
CC
and V
EE
. Connect the power-supply ground to
the pad marked GND.
2) Connect the output marked OUT to an oscilloscope
through a terminated 75鈩?cable.
3) Turn on the power supplies.
4) Apply a signal of 鹵1.7Vpk maximum to the SMA con-
nector marked IN.
5) Verify the output signal on the oscilloscope.
