Product Details
The MAX3948 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully tested and assembled demonstration board that provides optical evaluation of the MAX3948 DC-coupled, 1Gbps to 11.3Gbps laser driver. The controlling software communicates with the EV kit through the USB port and provides simplified control of all functions of the MAX3948. The EV kit can be fully powered by the USB port, or the user can choose to power the MAX3948 by a single external 3.3V supply while the USB port supplies the on-board microcontroller. The flex-cable connection on the evaluation board allows attachment of lasers incorporating flex-cables.
