General Description
Quick Start
The MAX40056 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled
electrical demonstration kit that provides a proven design
to evaluate the MAX40056F/MAX40056T/MAX40056U
high-precision, high-voltage, bidirectional current sense
amplifier for PWM applications, such as servo motor con-
trol and solenoid drive. The MAX40056F/MAX40056T/
MAX40056U are ideal for 48V, or less BLDC, induction
motor applications (such as robotics), pick-and-place
machines, 3D prints, or other servo motor control systems.

Procedure
The MAX40056 EV kit is fully assembled and tested.
Follow the following steps to verify board operation:
Features
Caution: Do not turn on the power supply or the
electronic load until all the connections are complete.
● Precision Real-Time Current-Monitoring with Fault
Detection
1) Connect a +3.3V supply and ground to VDD
connector.
2) Connect the positive terminal of the +0-60V DC
power supply to the RS+ input and the negative
terminal to the GND input.
3) Set the electronic load to sink 300mA.
4) Connect the positive terminal of the electronic load
to the RS- input and the negative terminal of the
electronic load to the nearest GND input connection
on the board.
