Product Details

The MAX8505 evaluation kit (EV kit) provides a 1.2V output voltage from a 2.6V to 5.5V input source, and delivers 3A output current. The MAX8505 EV kit includes the MAX8505 step-down switching regulator with an internal high-efficiency switch. The EV kit operates in PWM mode at a fixed 1MHz frequency, allowing use of the small-size external components.

The MAX8505 EV kit is a fully assembled and tested surface-mount printed circuit board. It can also be used to evaluate other output voltages, from 0.8V up to 85% of VIN, by changing the feedback resistors R2 and R3.
