MAX629 Evaluation Kit
_______________General Description
The MAX629 evaluation kit (EV kit) contains two sepa-
rate switching-regulator circuits. The first circuit con-
verts a +0.8V to V
OUT
battery voltage to a +24V LCD
backplane bias voltage for currents up to 20mA. The
second circuit converts a +0.8V to +12V battery voltage
to a -20V voltage for currents up to 20mA. The MAX629
requires a +2.7V to +5.5V supply at VCC, but the
inductor can be powered from as low as 0.8V. Both out-
put voltages can be adjusted by changing the feed-
back-resistor values.
The MAX629 EV kit provides low quiescent current and
high efficiency for maximum battery life. Operation up
to 300kHz allows the use of a tiny surface-mount induc-
tor. This EV kit is a fully assembled and tested surface-
mount circuit board.
