MAX9644/MAX9645/MAX9646 Evaluation Kits
Evaluate: MAX9644/MAX9645/MAX9646
General Description
The MAX9644/MAX9645/MAX9646 evaluation kits (EV kits)
are fully assembled and tested PCBs that evaluate the
MAX9644/MAX9645/MAX9646 single comparators. All EV
kits have a common internal reference voltage of +0.2V,
operate from a +1V to +5.5V power supply (VCC), and
have a common -0.3V to +5.5V input voltage (IN) range.
The EV kits are configured to evaluate both the 4-bump
UCSPK (installed) and an optional 5-pin SOT23 (to do
so, request a free MAX9644/MAX9645/MAX9646 SOT23
IC sample when ordering the EV kits).

Evaluate: MAX9644/MAX9645/MAX9646
Quick Start
•
MAX9644, MAX9645, or MAX9646 EV kit
•
Two -5V DC power supplies (VCC, IN)
•
Optional third +5V DC power supply (EXT for
MAX9644/MAX9645 only)
•
Digital multimeter (DMM)
The EV kits are fully assembled and tested. Follow the
steps below to verify board operation.
Caution: Do not
turn on the power supply until all connections are
completed.
1) Verify that a shunt is installed on pins 1-2 of jumper JU1.
2) Connect the positive terminal of a DC power supply to
the VCC PCB pad and the ground terminal to the GND
PCB pad.
3) Connect the positive terminal of a DC power supply to
the IN PCB pad and the ground terminal to the GND
PCB pad.
4) Connect the positive terminal of a DC power supply to
the EXT PCB pad and the ground terminal to the GND
PCB pad. (MAX9644/MAX9645 only)
5) Turn on the VCC power supply and set it to the
desired level.
6) Turn on the IN power supply and set it to the desired
level.
7) Turn on the EXT power supply and set it to the desired
level (MAX9644/MAX9645 only).
8) Monitor the output using a DMM at the OUT1 PCB
pad, and study its response to varying voltage at IN.
Detailed Description of Hardware
The MAX9644/MAX9645/MAX9646 EV kits are fully
assembled and tested PCBs that evaluate the MAX9644/
MAX9645/MAX9646 single comparators. The MAX9644
is an open-drain noninverting single comparator, the
MAX9645 is an open-drain inverting single compara-
tor, and the MAX9646 is a push-pull noninverting single
comparator. All EV kits have an internal reference voltage
of +0.2V, require VCC between +1V to +5.5V to operate,
and have a common -0.3 to +5.5V input voltage (IN) range.
The VCC PCB pad on the EV kits is used to supply a +1V
to +5.5V VCC supply to the IC.
Recommended Equipment
Procedure
VCC Supply Selection
The EV kits can evaluate both 4-bump UCSP (U1) and
5-pin SOT23 (U2) packages. The EV kit offers the option
to power up U1 or U2 separately though configuration of
jumper JU1. See Table 1 for power-up options.
The EXT PCB pad on the EV kits can be used as an
external source to pull the outputs high through resistors
R1 or R2 when open-drain versions of the parts are used.
