MAX2374 Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX2374 evaluation kit (EV kit) simplifies the evalu-
ation of the MAX2374 low-noise amplifier (LNA). It
enables testing of the device’s RF performance and
requires no additional support circuitry. The signal input
and output ports use SMA connectors to facilitate the
connection of RF test equipment.
The MAX2374 EV kit is assembled with the MAX2374
and incorporates input and output matching compo-
nents optimized for an RF frequency of 880MHz. All
matching components may be changed to match RF
frequencies from 750MHz to 1000MHz. Refer to Table 1
in the MAX2374 data sheet for the device’s S-parame-
ters to design matching networks at other frequen-
cies.
Features
o Easy Evaluation of MAX2374
o +2.7V to +5.5V Single-Supply Operation
o RF Input and Output Matched to 50Ω at 880MHz
o All Critical Peripheral Components Included
o Jumpers for Easy Configuration of Gain and
Linearity
