The MAX1515 evaluation kit (EV kit) is designed to evaluate
the MAX1515 constant off-time, pulse-width-modulated
(PWM) source/sink step-down DC-DC converter
that is optimized for use in low-voltage active-termination
power solutions in notebook and subnotebook
computers. The EV kit board defaults in DDR mode and
accepts 1.3V to 3.6V at VIN, 3.3V at VDD as the bias,
and 2.5V or 1.8V at VDDQ as the reference. An output
voltage is produced at VOUT equal to VDDQ / 2 that
can sink or source 2.5A.
In non-DDR mode, the voltage at VOUT is pin selectable
with the following options: 1.5V, 1.8V, or 2.5V. In
addition, the voltage at VOUT is adjustable from 0.5V to
2.7V.
The MAX1515 EV kit is conveniently designed with
jumpers to activate the feedback selection (FBSEL0,
FBSEL1), reference selection (REFIN), DDR mode
(MODE), pulse-skipping mode (active-low SKIP), and shutdown
mode (active-low SHDN).
