The MAX1535D evaluation kit (EV kit) is an efficient,
multichemistry battery charger. It uses the Intel® System
Management Bus (SMBus) to control the battery regulation
voltage, charger current output, and input current-limit set point.
The MAX1535D EV kit can charge one, two, three, or
four series Li+ cells with a current up to 8A.
The MAX1535D evaluation system (EV system) consists
of a MAX1535D EV kit and the Maxim SMBUSMON
board. The MAX1535D EV kit includes Windows® 95-/98-/2000-/XP-compatible software to provide a user-friendly interface.
