Product Details

The MAX22213 evaluation kit (EV kit) provides a proven design to evaluate the +36V, 3.8A quad half H-bridge MAX22213 motor drivers. The MAX22213 can drive four solenoids, two brushed DC motors, one single stepper motor, or a combination of different loads. The MAX22213 IC integrates very low-impedance FETs in a quad H-bridge configuration with a typical RON (high-side plus low-side) of 0.25Ω. The EV kit features headers, test points, and terminal blocks to provide an interface to the MAX22213 motor drivers. The MAX22213 integrated current-sense output ISEN_ can be monitored using test points or can be connected to an external ADC using header J5. The MAX22213 EV kit operates from an input voltage of +4.5V to +36V (VM). An on-board +3.3V regulator U2 (MAX6765TTSD2+) provides a regulated +3.3V to drive the MAX22213 logic inputs. Terminal blocks J1 and J6 are installed to provide an interface for the high voltage, high current VM inputs, and motor driver outputs OUT_.
