Product Details

The MAX16903 evaluation kit (EV kit) provides a proven design to evaluate the MAX16903 2.1MHz high-voltage mini-buck converter in a 16-pin TSSOP package. All components are rated for the automotive temperature range. Various test points are included for evaluation.

The EV kit PCB comes with a MAX16903RAUE50/V+ installed. The EV kit outputs a fixed +5V. The fixed +3.3V output version can also be installed with minimal component changes. Contact the factory for free samples of the pin-compatible MAX16903SAUE50/V+, MAX16903SAUE33/V+, and MAX16903RAUE33/V+ to evaluate these devices.
