製品概要

The MAX20433 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled and tested application circuit for the MAX20433 high-efficiency, four-output power management IC (PMIC). This EV kit can test all outputs to full load within the normal operation input range of 3.5V to 36V. The IC features two modes of watchdog operation—challenge/response and simple windowed mode—which can also be disabled for simplified evaluation.

To configure the MAX20433 and monitor errors, I2C communication must be used. Using a PC-to-I2C interface such as the MINIQUSB or MAX32625PICO and software such as Simple I2C for reading and writing to I2C registers simplifies testing. Windows®-based graphical-user interface (GUI) software is available for use with the EV kit and can be downloaded from the Analog Devices website at www.analog.com/MAX20433 (under the Design & Development tab). Windows 7 or newer is required to use the EV kit software.
