MAX1894/MAX1924 Evaluation Kit
The MAX1894 evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assembled
and tested circuit board. It uses the MAX1894 lithiumion (Li+) battery-pack protector to protect four series
Li+ cell battery packs against overvoltage, undervoltage, excessive charge/discharge currents, and battery
pack-short conditions. Three external P-channel
MOSFETs control the charge and discharge paths of
the battery pack. The MAX1894 EV kit provides two
inputs, which can be used by a microcontroller (µC) to
control the protection MOSFETs or put the MAX1894 in
shutdown mode. The EV kit also evaluates the MAX1924.

voltage to 4.2V x the number of cells in series.
Momentarily connect the positive terminal of the
power supply to J1 (JACK+).
4) Remove the positive terminal of the power supply
from PACK+, and verify that the DSO, CGO, and
TKO pads are pulled low.
5) Momentarily short the PACK+ and PACK- pads with
a short banana lead. Verify that the DSO, CGO, and
TKO pads are pulled high.
6) Reconnect the positive terminal of the power supply

Detailed Description
The MAX1894 EV kit protects Li+ battery cells against
charge/discharge faults. The EV kit is designed for both
3- and 4-cell applications. It is configured from the factory for a 4-cell application with the MAX1894X
installed. For a 3-cell application, replace the
MAX1894X with the MAX1924V and reconfigure jumper
JU5 (see Table 5). The EV kit monitors the voltage
across each cell to provide protection against undervoltage and overvoltage conditions. The EV kit also monitors the voltage across the current-sense resistor (R2) to
protect against excessive charge and discharge current,
and pack short conditions.
The MAX1894 EV kit also features a MAX1615 lowpower linear regulator, configurable for 3.3V or 5V to
power a µC. The linear regulator can provide 30mA for
VIN up to 28V. The charge and discharge paths of the
battery pack are controlled by three P-channel
MOSFETs: the trickle-charge MOSFET P1, the overdischarge MOSFET P2, and the overcharge MOSFET P3.
In the event of a fault condition, some or all of these
protection MOSFETs are turned off to disconnect the
battery pack from the current path. The MAX1894 EV kit
provides two logic-level inputs, which can be connected to general-purpose input/output (GPIO) lines from a
µC. These inputs can be used to turn off all three protection MOSFETs, or put the MAX1894 in shutdown
mode for minimizing the current consumption during
pack storage.
Trickle-Charge Operation
When the MAX1894 is in an undervoltage or deep discharge state (VCC < 4.5V typ), the circuit operates in
trickle-charge mode. During trickle-charge operation,
MOSFETs P2 and P3 are turned off and MOSFET P1 is
turned on to provide a lower current charge path for the
battery pack. Refer to the Fast and Trickle-Charge
Paths section in the MAX1894 data sheet.
Normal Operation
When all cell voltages are greater than 2.36V, the
MAX1894 EV kit operates in normal mode and can
readily charge and discharge. During normal operation,
all three MOSFETs (P1, P2, and P3) are turned on to
provide a current path for the battery pack. The voltage
across the current-sense resistor (R2) monitors the
charge and discharge current during normal operation.
Shutdown
The MAX1894 EV kit goes into shutdown mode when
an undervoltage fault occurs or when a logic high is
applied to the shutdown pad (SHDN). During shutdown
mode, the quiescent current is 0.8µA (typ).
Control
The control pad (CTL) on the MAX1894 EV kit can be
connected to one of the GPIO lines of a µC to turn off
all the protection MOSFETs simultaneously.
Discharge Current Protection
When the discharge current exceeds 7.25A (IOD_TH =
VOD_TH/R2) for more than 3ms, all protection MOSFETs
are turned off, disconnecting the battery pack from the
current path.
Charge-Current Protection
When the charge current exceeds 5A (I OC_TH =
V OC_TH /R2) for more than 3ms, the trickle-charge
MOSFET P1 and the overcharge MOSFET P3 are
turned off, disconnecting the battery pack from the
current path.
Pack-Short Current Protection
When the discharge current exceeds a second higher
current limit, 20A (IPS_TH = VPS_TH/R2) for more than
450µs, all protection MOSFETs are turned off, disconnecting the battery pack from the current path.
Jumper Selection
VDD Enable
Jumper JU4 enables the VDD power supply by connecting the input of the MAX1615 to B4_P. Install a
shunt on JU4 to enable VDD. Remove the shunt from
JU4 to disable VDD. See Table 4 for shunt positions.
VDD Selection
Jumper JU1 selects the output voltage of VDD. To set
VDD to +5V, install a shunt across pins 1 and 2 of JU1.
To set VDD to +3.3V, install a shunt across pins 2 and 3
of JU1. See Table 1 for shunt positions.
MAX1894 EV Kit Shutdown
Jumper JU2 selects the shutdown mode. To shut down
the part, install a shunt across pins 1 and 2 of JU2. To
enable the part, install a shunt across pins 2 and 3 of
JU2. The shutdown mode can also be driven by an
external µC connected to the SHDN pad. To use an
external µC for the shutdown mode, remove the shunt
from JU2 and connect the output of the µC to the SHDN
pad. See Table 2 for shunt positions.

install a shunt across pins 1 and 2 of JU3. To force a
logic low on the control pin, install a shunt across pins
2 and 3 of JU3. The control mode can also be driven by
an external µC. Remove the shunt from jumper JU3 and
connect the output of the µC to the CTL pad. See Table
