Product Details

The MAX9400 evaluation kit (EV kit) contains the MAX9400 low-skew quad buffer. The MAX9400 EV kit runs at PECL/ECL and LVPECL/LVECL supplies at clock rates up to 3.0GHz. The EV kit can be operated synchronously with an external clock or asynchronously.

The EV kit is designed with 50Ω controlled-impedance traces in a four-layer PC board. It can also be used to evaluate the MAX9401-MAX9405.
