Description
The MAX8596Z evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled
and tested circuit board that evaluates the
MAX8596Z white LED step-up DC-DC converter. The
circuit operates from 2.6V to 5.5V and delivers an
adjustable 0 to 25mA to drive up to 8 white LEDs in
series.
The MAX8596Z EV kit comes configured for driving 6
white surface-mount LEDs; however, it can support up
to 8 white LEDs. A 9th LED pad is provided to evaluate
the MAX8595X/MAX8596X. The EV kit features the
MAX8596Z's temperature derating function, but can be
used to evaluate the MAX8595Z without this feature.
Either IC provides the flexibility of controlling LED
brightness through an external analog or a PWM dimming
signal.
