The MAX2394/MAX2395 evaluation kits (EV kits) simplify evaluation of the MAX2394/MAX2395 quasi-direct modulator ICs for use in WCDMA/UMTS transmitters. The kit enables testing of the device's RF performance and requires no additional support circuitry. The board includes input BNC connectors and an output SMA connector to simplify the connection to test equipment. The MAX2394/MAX2395 EV kits are populated with the MAX2394 or MAX2395 IC and incorporate input and output matching components optimized for RF frequencies from 1920MHz to 1980MHz.
