Quick Start
The MAX1736 EV kit is a fully assembled and tested
surface-mount board. Follow the steps below for board
operation. Do not plug in the wall cube to the AC
voltage source until step 4:
1) Verify that a shunt is not across jumper JU1 to
enable the charger.
2) Connect the wall cube’s output to the power jack
(J1).
3) Place a voltmeter across the BATT+ pad and BATTpad.
4) Plug in the wall adapter and verify that the no-load
voltage across BATT+ and BATT- is approximately
2.5V.
5) Observe the correct Li+ cell polarity. Connect a
single-cell Li+ battery across the BATT+ and BATTterminals of the EV kit.
6) Once the voltage across BATT+ and BATT- reaches
4.2V, the Li+ cell has been charged.

General Description
The MAX1736 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled
and tested circuit board containing a single-cell lithiumion (Li+) battery charger. The EV kit includes a currentlimited 800mA wall-cube AC adapter, which allows it to
safely and quickly charge an Li+ cell to +4.2V (+4.1V
with the MAX1736EUT41). The EV kit is useful for standalone operation or for applications interfaced with a
microcontroller.

Detailed Description
Table 1. Jumper Shunt Positions
The MAX1736 EV kit is a battery charger for a singlecell Li+ battery. The EV kit board contains an external
P-channel MOSFET for current switching and can deliver up to 1A of current to an Li+ battery. The input
source used on the EV kit is a 9V current-limited 800mA
wall cube, but the kit is not restricted to this source. An
alternate power source can be used for higher current
levels. The EV kit may be enabled manually with jumper
JU1 or with a logic-level output from a microcontroller
or any logic-level output device.

Microcontroller Option
The charger can be turned on or off with a logic-level
controller, such as a microcontroller, by removing the
shunt from jumper JU1 and connecting the logic control
signal to the EN pad on the MAX1736 EV kit. To disable
the charger, assert a logic LOW to the EN pad. To
enable the charger, assert a logic HIGH.
Refer to the MAX1736 data sheet for more information.
Input Source
The input source for the MAX1736 EV kit must be a current-limited power supply capable of continuous shortcircuit operation. The supply should have a current limit
of 1A or less and an output voltage of +4.7V to +20V.
The adapter provided with the EV kit is capable of supplying 800mA at 9VDC. The charge current can be
increased, but diode D1 and MOSFET P1 must be
rated accordingly.
Evaluating the MAX1736EUT41
To evaluate the MAX1736EUT41, order a sample IC
from the phone number listed at the end of this data
sheet, and replace the MAX1736EUT42 IC with the
sample.
Jumper Selection
The MAX1736 EV kit features a jumper (JU1) to enable
and disable the charger. See Table 1 for jumper
settings.
