MAX2112 Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX2112 evaluation kit (EV kit) simplifies the test-
ing and evaluation of the IC 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 PCB.
