The MAX6635 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled and tested surface-mount PCB that evaluates the MAX6635 12-bit plus sign temperature sensor IC. The MAX6635 accurately measures temperature and provides an undertemperature/overtemperature interrupt and a maximum temperature active-low OVERT output logic signal.
The EV kit is self-powered from the on-board USB interface circuit and selects between four available I²C slave addresses. The MAX6635 EV kit can also evaluate the MAX6633 and MAX6634 ICs. If needed, request free samples from the factory when ordering the MAX6635 EV kit.
The MAX6635 EV kit provides an on-board SMBus™/I²C interface and is connected to the computer through the universal serial bus (USB) port. The EV kit includes Windows® 2000/XP®- and Windows Vista®-compatible software that provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for control of the MAX6635's programmable features.
