Evaluates: MAX2209 General Description Evaluates: MAX2209 MAX2209 Evaluation Kit Quick Start Required Equipment • Signal generator capable of delivering continuouswave (CW) signals with -5dBm output power • Power meter to accurately measure the power into the RF input • Power supply capable of up to 10mA at 2.7V to 5V • Digital multimeters (DMMs) to measure output voltage and supply and output current Connections and Setup The MAX2209 EV kit is fully assembled and tested. This section provides a step-by-step guide to operating the MAX2209 EV kit and testing the device’s functionality. Caution: Do not turn on the DC power supply or the RF signal generator until all connections are completed. 1) Connect a DC power supply set to 2.85V (through a DMM, if desired) to the VCC and GND terminals on the EV kit. If available, set the current limit to 10mA. Do not turn on the power supply. 2) Connect the output (T1) to a DMM to measure output voltage. 3) Set the signal generator output to -5dBm, f = 800MHz. Using the power meter, determine the actual power output of the signal generator. Use this value to determine proper operation of the part. 4) Connect the signal generator to the SMA connector. Do not turn on the signal generator. 5) Turn on the DC power supply; the supply current should read approximately 3.5mA. 6) Activate the signal generator. The output voltage should read approximately 0.9V. Figure 1.
