Description

The MAX8608Y evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled and tested circuit board that evaluates the MAX8608Y step-up DC-DC converter, which provides two output connections for either white LED (WLED) drive or organic LED (OLED) power at up to 85% efficiency. The EV kit operates from a 2.7V to 5.5V input and is configured to drive six surface-mount WLEDs with an output current of 25mA, as well as provide a regulated 25V output voltage (at up to 40mA) for OLED power.

The MAX8608Y EV kit can also evaluate the MAX8608Z, which does not feature the temperature (T_A) derating function. The T_A derating function is offered only by the MAX8608Y. Either IC provides the flexibility of controlling LED brightness through an external analog or PWM dimming signal.
