MAX1618 Evaluation System/Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX1618 evaluation system (EV system) consists
of a MAX1618 evaluation kit (EV kit) and a companion
Maxim SMBus™ Interface Board.
The MAX1618 EV kit is an assembled and tested PC
board that demonstrates the MAX1618 temperature
sensor. It monitors the temperature of an external
diode-connected transistor and converts the tempera-
ture to 8-bit, 2-wire serial data. A 2N3904 temperature-
sensor transistor comes soldered to the board in a
SOT23 package, but it can be removed. The board can
then be connected through a twisted pair to a remote
diode closer to your system.
The Maxim SMBus Interface Board (MAXSMBUS) allows
an IBM-compatible PC to use its parallel port to emulate
an Intel System Management Bus (SMBus) 2-wire inter-
face. Windows® 3.1/95/98 software provides a user-
friendly interface to exercise the features of the MAX1618.
The program is menu driven and offers a graphic inter-
face with control buttons and status display.
Order the MAX1618EVSYS for complete IBM PC-based
evaluation of the MAX1618. Order the MAX1618EVKIT if
you already have an SMBus interface.
