General Description
The MAX4063 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled
and tested circuit board that uses the MAX4063 lownoise microphone amplifier IC designed for a single
2.4V to 5.5V application. The MAX4063 IC contains two
microphone amplifiers. The main amplifier is typically
used to sense an internal (built-in) system microphone,
and an auxiliary amplifier that can be used to sense an
external (plug-in) microphone. The differential and single-ended gains of the amplifiers are adjustable with
jumpers and resistors. The differential output allows the
EV kit to drive a load at up to 6VP-P. The EV kit also features low quiescent current and a shutdown control to
minimize power consumption.
The EV kit demonstrates how the MAX4063 can provide
a complete microphone solution for a notebook PC. The
MAX4063 is available in 14-pin TSSOP and 16-pin QFN
(4mm x 4mm x 0.8mm) packages.

Quick Start
The MAX4063 EV kit is fully assembled and tested.
Follow the steps listed below to verify board operation.
Do not turn on the power supply until all connections are completed.

Recommended Equipment
• 5V power supply
• AC source – 100mVAC, 1kHz sine wave
• Oscilloscope
Figure 1. Typical Microphone Jack
Procedures
1) Install a shunt across pins 1 and 2 of jumper JU4
(EV kit ON).
Detailed Description
2) Install a shunt across pins 1 and 2 of jumper JU5
(INT mode).
The MAX4063 microphone preamplifier features two
selectable inputs, differential outputs, adjustable gain,
an integrated low-noise bias source, and a low-power
shutdown mode. Two input paths provide both differential and single-ended microphone sensing. The high
noise rejection of the differential input is ideally suited
to an internal microphone where system noise and
long-run PC board traces can degrade low-level signals. The single-ended input provides a simple connection to an external microphone.
3) Install a shunt across jumper JU1 (20dB gain).
4) Connect channel 1 of the oscilloscope to the OUT
pad, and channel 2 of the oscilloscope to the OUT
pad. Connect the oscilloscope ground leads to the
EV kit GND connection.
5) Connect the 5V terminal of the power supply to the
VCC pad and the ground terminal of the power
supply to the GND pad. Turn on the power supply.
6) Connect the 100mV, 1kHz AC source sine wave
across the IN+ and IN- pads.
7) Verify that the output across the OUT and OUT
pads is a 1VAC, 1kHz sine wave.
8) Remove the shunt from pins 1 and 2 of JU5 and
install the shunt across pins 2 and 3 of JU5 (AUX
mode).
9) Connect the 100mV, 1kHz AC source sine wave
across the AUXIN jack (see Figure 1).
10) Verify that the output across the OUT and OUT
pads is a 2VAC, 1kHz sine wave.

The differential and single-ended inputs have independent, adjustable gains. The Differential Gain Setting on
the EV kit is controlled by jumpers JU1, JU2, and JU3
to select from three preset gains (20dB, 40dB, and
60dB); see Table 1. The single-ended (AUX) gain is set
to the default 26dB. This can by changed by adding
resistor R8:
R8 = 2MΩ/(AVAUX - 26)
V
− V OUT 
AVAUX = 20LOG  OUT

 VAUX _ IN 
and AVAUX must be greater than 26dB. When R8 is
opened, the gain AVAUX is 26dB.
Differential outputs provide a full-scale signal of up to
6VP-P from a single 3V, supply optimizing the dynamic
range of the amplified signal. The EV kit operates from
a single 2.4V to 5.5V supply.

Shutdown
Jumper JU4 controls the shutdown pin (SHDN) on the
MAX4063 IC. The shutdown function may be activated
on the EV kit by installing a shunt across pins 2 and 3
of JU4. The shutdown function may also be controlled
by an external controller connected to the SHDN pad
and removing the shunt on JU4. See Table 2 for shunt
positions.

Differential Gain
JU1, JU2, and JU3 select the differential gain for the
MAX4063 EV kit. JU1, JU2, and JU3 should all be left
open or installed one at a time. See Table 1 for shunt
positions.
Input Mode
Jumper JU5 provides an option to select between single-ended mode (AUX) and differential mode (INT)
inputs. The input mode (INT/AUX) may also be controlled by an external controller connected to the
(INT/AUX) pad and removing the shunt on JU5. See
Table 3 for shunt positions.
