General Description
The MAX2306/MAX2308/MAX2309 evaluation kits (EV
kits) simplify testing of the MAX2306/MAX2308/
MAX2309 IF receivers. These kits allow evaluation of
the devices’ variable-gain amplifier (VGA), I/Q demodu-
lator, dual-band voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs),
synthesizer, 3-wire programming interface, and power-
management features.
The EV kits provide 50
SMA connectors for all signal
inputs and outputs. A varactor-based tank circuit is pro-
vided for the on-chip VCO and can be tuned by a
potentiometer or an external voltage or phase-locked
with the on-chip phase-locked loop (PLL).
