The MAX1238 evaluation kit (EV kit) is designed to evaluate the MAX1238. The MAX1238 is a 12-bit, 12-channel (six differential-channel) ADC with a 2-wire serial interface. The MAX1238 EV kit board supports three standard 2-wire interface speeds: standard mode (S-Mode), fast mode (F-Mode), and high-speed mode (HS-Mode). The software provided with this EV kit only supports S-Mode.
The provided Windows® 95/98 software uses the parallel (printer) port of an IBM®-compatible PC to emulate a processor with a 2-wire interface (S-Mode). The Windows software also provides a friendly graphical-user interface (GUI) to exercise the features of the MAX1238 with control buttons and menus.
Order the MAX1238 EV kit for comprehensive evaluation of the MAX1238 using a personal computer with an available parallel port.
