Analog Devices / Maxim Integrated MAX98050 Evaluation System (MAX98050EVSYS)

Analog Devices MAX98050 Evaluation System (MAX98050EVSYS) is a demonstration and development platform for the MAX98050 Audio CODEC. The MAX98050 is a low-power, high-performance audio CODEC with integrated low-latency digital filters for wireless hearables, headsets, and headphones. The MAX98050EVSYS is comprised of two MAX98050 Development Boards (Dev Boards), the Audio Interface Board III (AUDINT3), the Dual EVKit Adapter Board, and a USB cable. In addition to the hardware, the MAX98050 Evaluation Software and Hearable Sound Studio Basic software are available for download.

The ADI MAX98050 Evaluation System can be configured as Mono Hardware Setup using a single DEV Board or as Stereo Hardware Setup using two DEV Boards. MAX98050 supports standard I2S, left-justified, and TDM digital audio interfaces, as well as I2C for control.

The AUDINT3 board provides all of the necessary supply voltages for the proper operation of the Maxim Integrated MAX98050 Evaluation System. Also, the AUDINT3 provides the USB-to-PCM and USB-to-I2C interfaces that are needed to evaluate the system.
