MAX17501GTEVKIT#: 12V @ 500mA, 14 ~ 60V in

Summary

The MAX17501G EV kit provides a proven design to evaluate the MAX17501G high-efficiency, high-voltage, synchronous step-down DC-DC converter. The EV kit generates 12V at load currents up to 500mA from a 14V to 60V input supply. The EV kit features a 600kHz fixed switching frequency for optimum efficiency and component size.

The EV kit features a forced-PWM control scheme that provides constant switchingfrequency operation at all load and line conditions.

The EV kit includes an EN /UVLO PCB pad to enable control of the converter output. An additional /RESET PCB pad is available for monitoring the open-drain logic output. The VCC PCB pad helps measure the internal LDO voltage.
