Quick Start
Recommended Equipment
• ±5.0V dual DC power supplies
• Video signal generator (e.g., Tektronix TG 2000)
• Video measurement equipment (e.g., Tektronix VM
700A)
The MAX7438 EV kit is a fully assembled and tested
surface-mount board. Follow the steps below to verify
board operation. Do not turn on the power supply
until all connections are completed:
Evaluating Channel 1
1) Verify that there are shunts across jumpers JU6,
JU22, JU24, and JU26.
2) Verify that a shunt is installed across pins 1 and 2
on jumpers JU23, JU25, and JU27.
3) Verify that the rest of the jumpers are open.
4) Connect the output of the video signal generator to
the IN1 BNC connector on the EV kit.
5) Connect the OUT1 BNC connector on the EV kit to
the input of the video measurement equipment.

Evaluates: MAX7438/MAX7439
General Description
The MAX7438 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled
and tested surface mount board. The MAX7438 EV kit
includes the MAX7438, a three-channel standard-definition video reconstruction filter with a back-porch clamp
that sets the output blanking level of the video signal to
ground. The MAX7438 has an internal gain of +2V/V,
and the EV kit provides five levels of high-frequency
boost. The EV kit operates from ±5V dual supplies.
The MAX7438 EV kit can also be used to evaluate the
MAX7439, which is a three-channel, standard-definition
video reconstruction filter with an internal gain of +3V/V.

6) Connect both power-supply grounds to the threecircuit terminal block labeled GND.
7) Connect one +5.0V supply to the three-circuit terminal block labeled VCC. Connect the -5.0V supply
to the three-terminal block labeled VSS.
8) Set the video signal generator for the desired video
input signal, such as multiburst sweep. This signal
must contain sync information (i.e., composite or Y).
9) Turn on all power supplies, and enable the signal
generator.
10) Analyze the output signal with the VM700 video
measurement equipment.
output, the 200Ω termination resistor is provided on the
board and is selected by changing jumpers JU23,
JU25, and JU27 for channels 1, 2, and 3, respectively.
A typical DAC termination resistor is 200Ω.
The external resistors R2–R25 form a voltage-divider
between VCC and GND, and are used to program the
level of high-frequency boost for each channel by setting
different voltage levels at HFB_ pins. The MAX7438 EV
kit incorporates jumpers to provide five different boost
options for each individual channel. Refer to the HighFrequency Boost section in the MAX7438/MAX7439 data
sheet. The resistor values used in the EV kit are for
demonstration purposes only. Use the resistor values in
Table 1 in the MAX7438/MAX7439 data sheet for actual
designs. These lower value resistors have less coupling
to noise. Table 2 lists the JU1–JU18 functions.
Detailed Description
Jumper Selection
The MAX7438 EV kit provides options for evaluating
with a video signal generator output or a current-output
video DAC/encoder. Table 1 lists the jumper settings
for selecting the input from either a video generator or
a DAC. When interfacing to a video DAC or encoder
Evaluating the MAX7439
The MAX7438 EV kit can be also used to evaluate the
MAX7439. To evaluate the MAX7439, replace the
MAX7438ETP with a MAX7439ETP.

Note: To emulate a 200Ω DAC source resistor when driving from a 75Ω generator, remove jumpers JU22, JU24, and JU26. The
162Ω resistor added to a standard 75Ω termination equals approximately 200Ω.
