Analog Devices / Maxim Integrated MAX77659EVKIT Evaluation Kit

Analog Devices MAX77659EVKIT Evaluation Kit provides a demonstration and development platform for the MAX77659 SIMO PMIC (Power Management IC). The MAX77659 integrates a switching charger, a Single-Inductor Multiple-Output (SIMO) buck-boost regulator with three buck-boost outputs, a linear regulator, on/off controller, and an I2C interface. The device is optimized for rechargeable earbuds, wearables, and other applications, emphasizing low supply current and small solution size.

Analog Devices MAX77659EVKIT Evaluation Kit includes a pre-mounted MAX77659 PMIC in a WLP-30 package, along with all required support circuitry. Digital, SIMO, and LDO test points allow access to all key signals, and a USB port enables the MAX77659EVKIT to connect to a PC. Windows®-based software provides a user-friendly graphical interface and a detailed register-based interface to exercise the features of the MAX77659.
