The MAX4104 evaluation kit (EV kit) simplifies evaluation of the MAX4104 ultra-high-speed, low-noise, 880MHz amplifier. The EV kit circuit demonstrates the MAX4104 in the noninverting unity-gain configuration. RF-style connectors (SMA) and 50Ω terminating resistors are included for test equipment compatibility.
The MAX4104 EV kit can also be used to evaluate the MAX4105, MAX4304, and MAX4305. Simply order a free sample of the appropriate part (MAX4105ESA, MAX4304ESA, or MAX4305ESA), replace the IC on the EV board, and change the gain-setting resistors for the desired gain. Refer to the MAX4104/MAX4105/MAX4304/MAX4305 data sheet for suggested resistor values.
* Some packages have variations, listed on the drawing. "PkgCode/Variation" tells which variation the product uses. Note that "+", "#", "-" in the part number suffix describes RoHS status. Package drawings may show a different suffix character.
