MAX9788 Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX9788 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled
and tested PCB that uses the MAX9788 Class G ampli-
fier to drive a bridge-tied-load (BTL) ceramic speaker in
portable audio applications. Designed to operate from
a 2.7V to 5.5VDC power supply, the EV kit accepts a
single-ended or differential input signal and provides a
fully differential output capable of delivering greater
than 14V
P-P
into a ceramic speaker.

MAX9788 Evaluation Kit
Evaluates: MAX9788
Quick Start
•
5V, 1A power supply
•
Audio source (i.e., CD player, MP3 player)
•
One ceramic speaker (recommended suppliers:
Murata, Taiyo Yuden)
The EV kit accepts single-ended or a differential audio
input and provides a fully differential output. The audio
input source is amplified to drive greater than 14V
P-P
into a ceramic speaker.
Recommended Equipment
Customizing the Gain
The MAX9788 EV kit is shipped with a gain of +12dB.
Change the resistors (R1–R4) to customize the gain of
the EV kit (refer to the MAX9788 IC data sheet for
details).
Procedure
The MAX9788 EV kit is fully assembled and tested.
Follow the steps below to verify board operation.
Caution:
Do not turn on the power supply until all con-
nections are completed.
1) Install a shunt across pins 1-2 of jumper JU1 (EV kit
ON).
2) Connect the ceramic speaker across the OUT- and
OUT+ pads.
3) Connect the positive terminal of the power supply to
the VCC pad and the ground terminal to the GND
pad.
4) Connect the positive terminal of the audio source to
the IN+ pad.
5) Connect the negative terminal of the audio source
to the IN- pad. Connect the IN- pad to GND if the
audio source is single ended.
6) Connect the ground terminal of the audio source to
the GND pad.
7) Turn on the audio source.
8) Turn on the power supply.
Jumper Selection
Shutdown Mode (SHDN)
Jumper JU1 controls the shutdown pin (SHDN) of the
MAX9788 IC. The shutdown pin is also controlled by
an external logic controller connected to the EV kit
SHDN
pad. Remove the shunt from jumper JU1 before
connecting an external controller to the
SHDN
pad.
See Table 1 for shunt positions.

Detailed Description
The MAX9788 EV kit features the MAX9788 Class G
amplifier IC, designed to drive a ceramic speaker in a
BTL configuration. The EV kit operates from a DC power
supply that provides 2.7V to 5.5V and 1A of current.
