Evaluation Kit for the MAX9516

Active: In Production.

The MAX9516 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled and tested surface-mount printed-circuit board (PCB) that evaluates the MAX9516 video IC. The MAX9516 amplifies standard-definition video signals and sets the output video black level near ground, while consuming minimal power. The MAX9516 has an internal reconstruction filter, provides an internal fixed gain of 8V/V, accepts a full-scale video input signal of 0.25V_P-P (nominal), and provides an output full-scale video signal of 2V_P-P (nominal).

The MAX9516 EV kit video input signal is configured for both DC- and AC-coupled operation. The EV kit video input is terminated with a 75Ω resistor to ground and the output is back terminated with a series 75Ω resistor. The EV kit also includes an output LOAD signal, which indicates when a valid output load is present. The EV kit operates from a single 1.7V to 2.625V DC power supply.
