Evaluates: MAX38640/1/2/3 A/B in DFN MAX38640 DFN Evaluation Kit General Description Quick Start The MAX38640 evaluation kit (EV kit) evaluates the Required Equipment MAX38640/1/2/3 A/B IC family of ultra-low quiescent MAX38640 DFN EV kit current step-down DC-DC converters in the DFN 5.5V, 3A DC power supply package. The EV kit operates over an input range of 1.8V to 5.5V, and provides resistor-configurable Electronic load capable of 250mA output voltages from 0.7V to 3.3V. The EV kit delivers Digital voltmeter (DVM) up to 175mA/350mA/700mA of current depending on the input voltage to the output voltage ratio. Procedure The EV kit is fully assembled and tested. Follow the steps The EV kit comes with the MAX38640AELT+ installed. below to verify board operation.
