Evaluation Kit for the MAX3885

Active: In Production.

The MAX3885 evaluation kit (EV kit) simplifies evaluation of the MAX3885 2.488Gbps, SDH/SONET 1:16 deserializer. The EV kit requires only a single +3.3V supply and includes all the external components necessary to interface with 3.3V PECL and LVDS logic. The board can be connected directly to the output of a clock-and-data-recovery circuit (such as the MAX3875) and to the input of an LVDS device (such as an overhead termination circuit). A signal generator or stimulus system can be used with an oscilloscope to evaluate the MAX3885's basic functionality.
