• 500kHz Switching Frequency
• Independent Enable Switches
• PMBus Configuration and Control
  • Compatible with Maxim’s PowerTool™ GUI
  • Easy Connection to PC Using MAXPOWERTOOL002# (order separately)

• Fully Tested and Assembled

This evaluation kit demonstrates the MAX20754 PMBus™ compatible, dual-output, multiphase power-supply controller. The controller generates six pulse-width modulated (PWM) control signals, or “phases.” The MAX20754 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a two-output design, with four phases assigned to output 1 and the remaining two phases assigned to output 2. Both outputs use coupled inductor topologies. Coupled inductors reduce the effective inductor value and size without excessive ripple current, reducing required output capacitance, and improving transient response.

The EV kit also demonstrates the MAX20766 power-stage device. There are six MAX20766 devices, one per phase.

The MAXPOWERTOOL002# is an interface adapter between a host PC (IBM™-compatible) and Analog Devices' PMBus compatible eval boards for power solutions such as hot swaps, 12V multiphase controllers, and 12V point of load devices. The interface to the host PC is a standard type-A to mini-B USB cable. The interface to the eval board is through a 16-pin ribbon cable that carries the PMBus commands.

The MAXPOWERTOOL002# is intended to be used with Analog Devices’s Digital PowerTool GUI, and it works with the following devices: MAX20751, MAX20754, MAX20710, MAX20730, MAX20743, MAX20734, MAX20796, MAX20810, MAX20815, MAX16550, MAX16545B/C.
