The MAX2430EVKIT-SO and MAX2430EVKIT-QSOP eval-
uation kits (EV kits) simplify evaluation of the MAX2430 sili-
c on RF p owe r a mp lifie r. The y e na b le te s ting of a ll
MAX2430 functions over the 800MHz to 950MHz band,
with no additional support circuitry and with minimal
equipment.
♦ Low-Cost, Silicon RF Power Amplifier
♦ Delivers More than 125mW Output Power from
+3.6V Supply
♦ Single +3V to +5.5V Supply Range, Ideal for 3-Cell
NiCd or 1-Cell Lithium-Ion Battery Operation
♦ Output Matching Network is Tunable from
To e va lua te the MAX2430 in the SO p a c ka g e
(MAX2430ISE), order the MAX2430EVKIT-SO. To evaluate
the MAX2430 in the PwrQSOP p a c ka g e , ord e r the
MAX2430EVKIT-QSOP. These are surface-mount packages.
800MHz to 950MHz
♦ TTL/CMOS-Compatible Shutdown Input
♦ Easy Testing of All MAX2430 Features
♦ Fully Assembled and Tested Surface-Mount
