The MAX1479 evaluation kit (EV kit) allows for a detailed
evaluation of the MAX1479 ASK/FSK transmitter. It
enables testing of the device's RF performance and
requires no additional support circuitry. The RF output
uses a 50Ω matching network and an SMA connector for
convenient connection to test equipment. A reverse polarity
SMA is also included to connect to a 1/4 wave whip
antenna. The EV kit can also directly interface to the
user's embedded design for easy data encoding.
The MAX1479EV kit comes in two versions: a 315MHz
version and a 433.92MHz version. The passive components
are optimized for these frequencies. These components
can easily be changed to work at RF frequencies
from 300MHz to 450MHz.
For easy implementation into the customer's design, the
MAX1479EV kit also features a proven PC board layout,
which can be easily duplicated for quicker time-to-market.
