MAX3507 Evaluation Kit
General Description
Features
ꢀ +5V Single-Supply Operation
ꢀ Output Level Range Up to +64dBmV (QPSK)
ꢀ Gain Programmable in 0.5dB Steps
ꢀ Transmit Disable Mode
The MAX3507 evaluation kit (EV kit) simplifies evalua-
tion of the MAX3507 CATV upstream amplifier. Each kit
includes a data interface that can be programmed
through the parallel port of a standard PC. Software
(Windows® 95/98 compatible) is included to facilitate
this function. This software allows programming of all
available features through a simple user interface.
ꢀ Shutdown Mode
Access to the device input and output is provided
through 50Ω SMA connectors. The input is matched to
50Ω. The output circuit includes a minimum-loss pad
that presents a 75Ω load to the output transformer
when using 50Ω test equipment.
ꢀ Control Software Included
ꢀ Fully Assembled and Tested Surface-Mount
