MAX14912EVKIT#

The MAX14912EVKIT# from Maxim Integrated Products is an evaluation kit (EV kit) for MAX14912 octal digital output driver. The MAX14912 octal high speed, high side switch/push-pull driver is an industry's most robust and fastest 24V driver, capable of 200KHz switching rate, improves factory throughput. The evaluation kit provides a proven design to evaluate the MAX14912 device. It includes an evaluation board and a graphical user interface (GUI) that provides communication from a PC to the target device through a USB port. The EV kit includes Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10 compatible software for exercising the features of the IC. The EV kit GUI allows controlling the MAX1491 in either parallel mode or serial (SPI) mode. The EV kit must be powered from an external +24V power supply and can consume up to 10A when fully loaded. It comes with a MAX14912AKN+ installed in a 56 pin, 8 x 8mm TQFN-EP package.
