MAX3580 Evaluation Kit
Evluates:MAX3580
General Description
Features
o Easy Evaluation of the MAX3580
The MAX3580 evaluation kit (EV kit) simplifies evaluation
of the MAX3580 direct-conversion tuner. It enables
testing of the device’s performance and requires no
additional support circuitry. Standard 50Ω SMA and
BNC connectors are included on the EV kit for the
inputs and outputs to allow quick and easy evaluation
on the test bench. The EV kit is fully assembled and
tested at the factory.
o +3.1V to +3.5V Single-Supply Operation
o 50Ω SMA Connector on the RF Ports
o 50Ω BNC Connector for the Baseband Output
Ports
o Jumpers for Automatic Gain Control
o All Critical Peripheral Components Included
o Parallel Port for I2C Interfacing
This document provides a list of equipment required to
evaluate the device, a straightforward test procedure to
verify functionality, a description of the EV kit circuit, the
circuit schematic, a bill of materials (BOM) for the kit, and
artwork for each layer of the printed-circuit board (PCB).
