MAX15005AEVKIT+

MAX15005AEVKIT+ is a MAX15005A evaluation kit (EV kit) which is a fully assembled and tested PCB that contains an 11W flyback DC-DC converter for vacuum-fluorescent displays (VFDs) in automotive applications. The circuit uses a MAX15005C high-performance, current-mode pulse-width modulation (PWM) controller in a 16-pin TSSOP package. The EV kit circuit is configured for output voltages of 3V, 60V, and 110V and provides up to 650mA, 12mA and 55mA of current from the respective output. The MAX15005A EV kit input circuit can sustain a 40V transient.

• 6.5V to 16V DC input range
• 71% efficiency at 16V input and full Load
• 5V LDO output provides up to 15mA
• Hiccup current-limit and overtemperature shutdown
• 100kHz switching frequency
• Capacitor adjustable soft-start
• High-accuracy undervoltage lockout (UVLO), output overvoltage protection (OVP)
• Capable of synchronizing to an external clock
• Low-cost, robust flyback design
• Fully assembled and tested

Warnings

Designed to operate with high voltages. Dangerous voltages present on this EV kit and connected equipment. Users of this EV kit, or power sources connected to it, must carefully follow safety procedures for to working with HV electrical equipment.
