MAX2387/MAX2388/MAX2389 Evaluation Kits
General Description
Features
The MAX2387/MAX2388/MAX2389 evaluation kits (EV
kits) simplify evaluation of the MAX2387/MAX2388/
MAX2389. The EV kits allow the evaluation of the low-
noise amplifier (LNA) as well as the downconverter
mixer without the use of any additional support circuitry.
The board comes in a single-ended IF load and single-
ended VCO configuration. The signal inputs and out-
puts use SMA connectors to simplify the connection of
RF test equipment.
ꢀ +2.7V to +3.3V Single-Supply Operation
ꢀ 50 SMA Inputs and Outputs on RF, IF, and LO
Ports for Easy Testing
ꢀ All Matching Components Included
ꢀ Fully Assembled and Tested
Ordering Information
The MAX2387/MAX2388/MAX2389 are assembled with
an associated IC and incorporate input- and output-
matching components optimized for RF frequencies
from 2.11GHz to 2.17GHz and an IF frequency of
190MHz.
