Product Details

The MAX20411 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled and tested application circuit for the MAX20411 family of step-down converters. The MAX20411 EV kit is preinstalled with MAX20411C 30A version and is also compatible with MAX20411A (16A), MAX20411B (22A), and MAX20411D (40A). The MAX20411 can accept a power supply between 3V and 5.5V and provide output voltages of 0.5V to 1.275V with controlled DVS and startup slew rates. I2C communication must be used to configure the MAX20411 and monitor errors. A PC to I2C interface such as the MINIQUSB or MAX32625PICO and software for reading and writing to I2C registers such as Simple I2C simplifies testing.
