MAX1698 Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX1698 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled
and tested circuit board that contains a boost switch-
ing-regulator current source and array of white LEDs.
As configured, the circuit is set up to drive 3 banks of 3
series LED arrays at 20mA each; however, a wide vari-
ety of other configurations are possible. The IC can be
powered from a separate +2.7VDC to +5.5VDC input,
while LED power has a wider input range and can be
supplied either from a logic supply or battery source.
The MAX1698 features digital soft-start and adjustable
lossless LED current control. The MAX1698 EV kit
demonstrates low quiescent current, open-circuit pro-
tection, and up to 90% efficiency for maximum battery
life. Operation up to 500kHz allows the use of tiny sur-
face-mount components.
