Evaluation Kit for the MAX2870 and MAX2871

Manufactured By:Maxim Integrated
Evaluation Kit for the MAX2870 and MAX2871
Part Number:MAX2870EVKIT#

The MAX2870/MAX2871 evaluation kits (EV kits) simplify the testing and evaluation of the MAX2870 and MAX2871 ultra-wideband phase-locked loop (PLL) with integrated voltage-control oscillators (VCOs). Each EV kit is fully assembled and tested at the factory. Standard 50Ω SMA connectors are included on the EV kits for the inputs and outputs to enable quick and easy evaluation on the test bench.

This document provides a Quick Start guide, a description of the EV kit circuit, a Troubleshooting Guide, the circuit schematic, a list of components for the EV kit, and diagrams for each layer of the PCB.
