MAX710 Evaluation Kit
_______________General Description
The MAX710 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a step-up DC-DC
converter with a linear-regulator output. The MAX710
accepts a +1.8V to +11V input and converts it to a 3.3V
or 5V output for up to 250mA currents. The EV kit is
optimized for battery applications where the input
varies above and below the regulated output voltage. It
can be set in two modes: one optimized for lowest
noise, the other for highest efficiency.
The MAX710 EV kit is a fully assembled and tested sur-
face-mount circuit board. It can also be used to evalu-
ate the MAX711, which has an adjustable output volt-
age (2.7V to 5.5V). Additional pads on the board
accommodate the external feedback resistors for set-
ting different output voltages.
