MAX1518 Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX1518 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled
and tested surface-mount circuit board that contains a
step-up switching regulator, a positive charge pump
postregulated by a high-voltage linear regulator, a neg-
ative charge pump postregulated by a high-voltage
negative linear regulator, and five high-current opera-
tional amplifiers. The step-up switching circuit is config-
ured for a +13V output (VMAIN) and provides up to
650mA from a +4.5V to +5.5V DC supply voltage.
The positive linear regulator is configured for a +25V
output (VPOS) using two charge-pump stages provid-
ing up to 10mA. The negative linear regulator is config-
ured for a -8V output (VNEG) using a single charge-
pump stage providing up to 15mA. The DC input
source or the step-up switching regulator output pro-
vides power for the positive charge-pump input. The
DC input source or the power ground provides power
for the negative charge-pump input.
The MAX1518 EV kit demonstrates low-quiescent cur-
rent and high efficiency for maximum battery life.
Operation at 1.2MHz allows the use of tiny surface-
mount components.

Detailed Description
The MAX1518 EV kit contains a step-up switching regu-
lator and two linear regulators. It operates from a +4.5V
to +5.5V DC power supply. The switching frequency is
1.2MHz. As configured, the step-up switching regulator
generates a +13V output and can provide up to
650mA. VPOS uses two charge-pump stages to gener-
ate approximately +25V and can provide up to 10mA.
VNEG uses one charge-pump stage to generate
approximately -8V and can provide up to 15mA. The EV
kit includes five high-current operational amplifiers.
Output Voltage Selection
Step-Up Switching-Regulator Output
Voltage (VMAIN)
The MAX1518 EV kit’s step-up switching-regulator output
is set to +13V by feedback resistors R1 and R2. To gen-
erate output voltages other than +13V (+4.7V to +V
MAIN
),
select different external voltage-divider resistors (R1 and
R2). The output capacitors (C4, C5, and C6) are rated at
+16V. To set the output voltage greater than +15V, use
higher-voltage rated capacitors. Refer to the
Output
Voltage Selection
section in the MAX1518 data sheet for
instructions on selecting the feedback resistors.
Jumper Selection
Positive Charge Pump (JU1)
The positive charge pump can be powered by VIN or
VMAIN. Jumper JU1 selects the voltage source for the
positive charge pump.
Table
1 lists the jumper options.
The default configuration for the positive charge pump
of the MAX1518 EV kit is a two-stage charge pump
powered by VIN as indicated in Tables 1 and 2.
Positive Linear-Regulator Output Voltage
(VPOS)
The MAX1518 EV kit’s positive linear-regulator output is
set to +25V by feedback resistors R3 and R4. To gen-
erate output voltages other than +25V (+1.25V to
+28V), select different external voltage-divider resistors
(R3 and R4). Refer to the
Output Voltage Selection
sec-
tion in the MAX1518 data sheet for instructions on
selecting the resistors.
Negative Charge Pump (JU2)
The negative charge pump can be connected to VIN or
PGND. Jumper JU2 selects the voltage source for the
negative charge pump.
Table
2 lists the jumper
options. The default configuration for the negative
charge pump of the MAX1518 EV kit is a one-stage
charge pump connected to PGND.
Negative Linear-Regulator Output Voltage
(VNEG)
The MAX1518 EV kit’s negative linear-regulator output is
set to -8V by feedback resistors R7 and R8. To generate
output voltages other than -8V (0 to -22V), select different
external voltage-divider resistors (R7 and R8). Refer to
the
Output Voltage Selection
section in the MAX1518
data sheet for instructions on selecting the resistors.
