The MAX2605-MAX2609 evaluation kits (EV kits) simplify evaluation of this family of voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs). These kits enable testing of the devices' performance and require no additional support circuitry. Both signal outputs use SMA connectors to facilitate connection to RF test equipment.
These EV kits are fully assembled and tested. Their oscillation frequencies are set to approximately the midrange of the respective VCOs.
