MAX1954A Evaluation Kit
The MAX1954A evaluation kit (EV kit) demonstrates the
MAX1954A buck controller application circuit. The EV
kit generates a 1.5V output voltage at load currents up
to 5A from a 10.8V to 13.2V input voltage range independent of the IC supply voltage. The MAX1954A
switches at 300kHz and has better than 90% efficiency
with the supplied components.
The EV kit comes fully assembled and tested.

•
5V at 100mA power supply
•
Digital multimeter (DMM)
•
5A load
•
Ammeter (optional)
Evaluating Other Output Voltages
The MAX1954A EV kit comes preset to a 1.5V output
voltage. The output of the MAX1954A is adjustable down
to 0.8V. To adjust the output voltage, place a 1% resistor
at R1 with a value corresponding to the equation:
Quick Start
The MAX1954A application circuit is fully assembled
and tested. Follow these steps to verify board operation:
1) Preset the DC power supplies to 12V and 5V. Turn
off the power supplies. Do not turn on the power
supplies until all connections are complete.
2) Remove the shunt from JU1 and JU2.
3) Connect the positive lead of the 5V power supply to
the VIN pad on the EV kit and connect the negative
lead of the power supply to the GND pad on the
EV kit.
4) Connect the positive lead of the 12V power supply
to the VHSD pad on the EV kit and connect the negative lead of the power supply to the GND pad on
the EV kit.
5) Connect the positive lead of the DMM to the VOUT
pad on the EV kit and connect the negative lead of
the DMM to the GND pad on the EV kit.
6) Turn on the power supplies.
7) Verify that the voltage at VOUT is 1.5V ±2.5%.
8) Connect a 5A load between VOUT and GND.
9) Verify that the voltage at VOUT is 1.5V ±2.5%.

Detailed Description
R1 = 8.06 x 103 x ((VOUT / 0.8) - 1)
Note that VOUT cannot exceed VIN and is limited by the
maximum duty cycle of the MAX1954A.
Refer to the MAX1954A data sheet for information on
selecting output inductor, capacitor, and compensation
components to optimize the circuit for different output
voltages.
Using a Single Power Supply
If the input source is between 3V to 5.5V, install a shunt
on JU1 (to connect VHSD and VIN), and connect the
power supply between the VHSD pad and the GND pad
on the EV kit. Refer to the MAX1954A data sheet for
information on selecting the inductor, capacitors, and
compensation components for optimum performance.
Jumper Settings
Jumper JU1 Function
(HSD Control)
Connect HSD to IN when using input voltages lower
than 5.5V. Place a shunt on JU1 to connect HSD to IN.
Jumper JU2 Function
(Output Shutdown Mode)
The MAX1954A features an output shutdown mode to
minimize the quiescent current. To shut down the output, place a shunt between pins 1 and 2 on JU2. For
normal operation remove the shunt from JU2.
