Quick Start
The MAX4135 EV kit is fully assembled and tested.
Follow these steps to verify board operation. Do not
turn on the power supply until all connections are
completed.
1) The circuit requires supply voltages of ±5V. Connect
a +5V supply to the pad marked VCC. Connect a
-5V supply to the pad marked VEE. Connect the
power-supply ground to the pad marked GND.
2) Apply a signal in the +1.1V to -1.0V range to the
SMA connector marked IN.
3) Connect the output marked OUT1 to an oscilloscope
through a terminated 75Ω cable.
4) On DIP switch SW1, set the SEL1 switch to the on
position. Set all other switches to off.
5) Turn on the power supply and verify the output signal on the oscilloscope.

The MAX4135 provides TTL/CMOS-compatible, digital
control pins (SEL1–SEL6) to enable or disable each
amplifier output. When the SEL_ input is low, the amplifier is enabled; when it is high, the amplifier is disabled.
The EV kit uses a DIP switch (SW1) to manually
enable/disable outputs. When a switch is on, the SEL_
pin is connected to ground, and the corresponding
amplifier is enabled. When a switch is off, the SEL_ pin
is connected to +5V through a 100kΩ pull-up resistor,
and the corresponding amplifier is disabled.
To use an external controller, set the desired SEL_
switch(es) to on and connect the external controller to
the pad(s) labeled SEL_.

General Description
The MAX4135 evaluation kit (EV kit) simplifies evaluation of the MAX4135 one-input, six-output distribution
amplifier. The EV kit circuit demonstrates the MAX4135
in a fixed gain of 2V/V. RF-style connectors (SMA) and
75Ω terminating resistors are included for video testequipment compatibility.

MAX4135 Evaluation Kit
MAX4136, MAX4137,
MAX4138 Configuration
The MAX4135 EV kit can easily be configured to evaluate the MAX4136, MAX4137, or MAX4138. The primary
differences between the four parts are the number of
output channels (four or six), and either fixed (2V/V) or
adjustable gain (≥2V/V). Refer to Table 1 and to the
MAX4135/MAX4136 and MAX4137/MAX4138 data
sheets for further information.
Evaluating the MAX4136
To evaluate the MAX4136, simply order a free sample
(MAX4136EWG), replace the MAX4135 with the
MAX4136 on the PC board, and select and install the
gain-setting resistors for the desired gain.
Evaluating the MAX4137
To evaluate the MAX4137, order a free sample
(MAX4137EWG) and replace the MAX4135 with the
MAX4137 on the PC board. Keep the 0Ω resistor in RG
and leave RF open. Note that the four output channels
correspond to those labeled OUT2–OUT5, and are
selected via SEL2–SEL5 on SW1 (see Table 2).
Evaluating the MAX4138
To evaluate the MAX4138, simply order a free sample
(MAX4138EWG), replace the MAX4135 with the
MAX4138 on the PC board, and select and install the
gain-setting resistors for the desired gain. Note that the
four output channels correspond to those labeled
OUT2–OUT5, and are selected via SEL2–SEL5 on SW1
(see Table 2).

Layout Considerations
The MAX4135 EV kit layout has been optimized for
high-speed signals and low distortion, with careful
attention given to grounding, power-supply bypassing,
and signal-path layout. The small, surface-mount,
ceramic bypass capacitors (C2, C4, C5, and C6) have
been placed as close to the four MAX4135 supply pins
as possible. The ground plane has been removed
around and under the MAX4135 to reduce stray capacitance. The removal of ground plane around the input
SMA connector reduces distortion.
