MAX2117 Evaluation Kit
Evaluates: MAX2117
General Description
The MAX2117 evaluation kit (EV kit) simplifies the testing
and evaluation of the device direct-conversion tuner. The
evaluation kit is fully assembled and tested at the factory.
Standard 50Ω SMA and BNC connectors are included on
the EV kit for the inputs and outputs to allow quick and
easy evaluation on the test bench.
This document provides a list of equipment required to
evaluate the device, a straightforward test procedure to
verify functionality, a description of the EV kit circuit, the
circuit schematic, a component list for the kit, and artwork
for each layer of the printed-circuit board (PCB).
