The MAX8533 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled
and tested surface-mount circuit board demonstrating
the MAX8533 to be a versatile, single-port, 12V,
Infiniband® (IB)-compliant hot-swap controller. The
MAX8533 integrates several features that allow for reliable
insertion and removal of the circuit card as well as
real-time fault protection of abnormal occurrences. The
MAX8533 allows for an adjustable soft-start ramp during
turn-on of the input voltage while providing overcurrent
protection. It also provides accurate and consistent current-
regulated outputs for a programmable period of time
to latchoff and soft-start in the presence of overcurrent
(OC) conditions. Additionally, it provides a second level
of severe overcurrent (SOC) protection by responding to
a dead short in 100ns.
The MAX8533 EV kit incorporates a power-good (POK)
open-drain output that can easily be pulled up to the
input voltage or to another logic level using a jumper.
Two enable inputs, EN (logic enable) and LPEN (local
power enable), provide flexible sequencing.
The MAX8533 EV kit comes with an edge-card connector
backplane board that is used to verify the hot-swap
function.
