The MAX1605 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled and tested surface-mount circuit board that contains a boost switching converter that generates a positive voltage to drive low-power LCD displays. The circuit is configured for a +18V output voltage and provides up to 30mA. Higher output voltages are possible by selecting different components.
The IC operates from a +2.4V to +5.5V supply voltage but can boost battery voltages as low as +0.8V up to +30V at the output. Three different inductor current limits can be evaluated with the EV kit as configured.
The MAX1605 EV kit demonstrates low quiescent current and high efficiency up to 88% for maximum battery life. Operation up to 500kHz allows the use of tiny surface-mount components.
