The MAX7313 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled and tested surface-mount, 16-output LED driver circuit board. The circuit uses the MAX7313 IC, a 16-port GPIO with LED intensity control, interrupt, and hot-insertion protection. The EV kit includes four RGB LEDs and four white LEDs (WLEDs) that can be controlled simultaneously by the MAX7313. The EV kit demonstrates the MAX7313 IC's 8-bit PWM LED intensity control, 2-phase LED blinking, interrupt output, four-level I²C addressing feature.
The MAX7313 EV kit provides printed-circuit board (PCB) pads for the MAX7313 I²C serial-interface signals. A Windows 2000/XP/Vista®-compatible software is provided to access the MAX7313 IC. The MAX7313 EV kit can also be directly interfaced to a user-provided I²C system.
