MAX2654/MAX2655/MAX2656 Evaluation Kits
General Description
The MAX2654/MAX2655/MAX2656 evaluation kits
(EV kits) simplify evaluation of the MAX2654/MAX2655/
MAX2656 low-noise amplifiers (LNAs). These kits
enable testing of the devices' performance and require
no additional support circuitry. The signal input and out-
put use SMA connectors to facilitate connection of RF
test equipment.
The MAX2654/MAX2655/MAX2656 EV kits are fully
assembled with the MAX2654/MAX2655/MAX2656 on
board, and incorporate input matching components opti-
mized for specific frequency operation.
