MP165
INTRODUCTION
This easy to use kit provides a platform with good circuit board layout and grounding to evaluate the
MP165 Power Amplifier. The evaluation board provides options to install a load capacitor and series resistor
to evaluate the MP165 performance with a printhead. All necessary components are provided with the kit.
External connections to the evaluation kit can be made through the connectors at the edges of the circuit.
The circuit provides a line termination of 50Ω.

  • Page 6: Test Setup

    Begin the test with minimum values of input and supply voltages. Figure 5 and 6 show the input, output and over current flag waveforms when a MP165 is evaluated using the EK49 evaluation kit. The yellow waveform (channel 1) represents an input signal of 4V and the cyan waveform (channel 2) represents an output signal of 100V .
