MAX15026B Evaluation Kit
Evluates:MAX15026B
General Description
Features
o 5V to 16V Input Range
The MAX15026B evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assem-
bled and tested PCB that contains all the components
necessary to evaluate the performance of the
MAX15026B 10A synchronous step-down controller.
o Optional 4.5V to 5.5V Input Range for MAX15026B IC
o 1.5V at 10A Output
o 600kHz Switching Frequency
o Enable Input
o Power-Good Output
The MAX15026B EV kit requires a 5V to 16V power sup-
ply that provides up to 4A for normal operation. The
MAX15026B EV kit output is configured to 1.5V and
delivers up to 10A output current. The controller switch-
ing frequency is programmed to 600kHz. The
MAX15026B EV kit includes PCB pads to enable the cir-
cuit and to monitor the power-good output.
o Fully Assembled and Tested
