Analog Devices Inc. MAX22518EVKIT Evaluation Kit
Analog Devices MAX22518EVKIT Evaluation Kit provides a proven design to evaluate the MAX22518 Dual-Channel Digital Isolator. The MAX22518EVKIT allows easy access to both channels through either terminal blocks or test points. The isolated field-side supply VDDF can also be accessed using the test points. This evaluation kit includes necessary external components to demonstrate the device’s surge performance (1.2/50μs) up to ±1kV between input and field ground (differential), or up to ±2kV between inputs (common mode).The MAX22518EVKIT Evaluation Kit is supplied populated with the MAX22518 but is designed to also support the MAX22517 and MAX22519 Digital Isolators. Jumpers on the logic-side outputs (OUT1L and OUT2L) allow the user to connect or disconnect the pullup resistors, depending on whether the target device has open-drain or push-pull outputs.
The Analog Devices MAX22518EVKIT Evaluation Kit is powered from a single power supply on the logic side, VDDL, in a range from 3.0V to 5.5V. The field-side supply, VDDF, is generated by the device and has a nominal voltage of 3.3V. The logic-side ground (GNDL) and field-side ground (GNDF) are isolated and can have a continuous working voltage difference up to 445VRMS. For evaluating the electrical parameters of the devices without any isolation between the two sides, a common ground can be shared between GNDL and GNDF.
