MAX6683 Evaluation System/Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX6683 evaluation system (EV system) consists
of a MAX6683 evaluation kit (EV kit) and a companion
Maxim system management bus (SMBus)鈩?interface
board (MAXSMBUS).
The MAX6683 EV kit is an assembled and tested PC
board that demonstrates the MAX6683 temperature
sensor and system monitor. The MAX6683 monitors
temperature, supply voltage, and the voltage of three
external supplies. Temperature is converted to 11-bit
serial data and voltage to 8-bit data.
The MAXSMBUS allows an IBM-compatible PC to use
its parallel port to emulate an Intel (SMBus). Windows
廬
95/98/2000-compatible software provides a user-friend-
ly interface to exercise the features of the MAX6683.
The program is menu driven and offers a graphic inter-
face with control buttons and status display.
Note:
Windows 2000 requires the installation of a dri-
ver; refer to Win2000.pdf or Win2000.txt located on the
diskette.
Order the MAX6683EVSYS for a complete IBM PC-based
evaluation of the MAX6683. Order the MAX6683EVKIT if
you already have an SMBus interface.
To evaluate the MAX6652, order a free sample of the
MAX6652AUB.
