MAX38801EVKIT#

The MAX38801EVKIT# is an evaluation kit (EV kit) for MAX38801. It serves as a reference platform for evaluating the MAX38801 voltage regulator IC. This single-chip, integrated switching regulator provides an extremely compact, highly efficient, fast, accurate and reliable power delivery solution for low-output voltage applications. The MAX38801 has different programmability options to enable a wide range of configurations. The EV kit consists of a fully-assembled and tested printed circuit board (PCB) implementation of the MAX38801. Jumpers, test points and input/output connectors are included for flexibility and ease-of-use. Typical applications include DDR memory: VDDQ, VPP and VTT, GPU core supply, I/O and chipset supplies, point of load (POL) applications and servers/µservers.
