The MAX1587A is a high-performance synchronous step-down DC-DC power-management IC optimized for microprocessor-based applications. The IC integrates three high-performance synchronous step-down DC-DC power supplies, two low-dropout (LDO) regulators, a battery backup supply, and various power-management functions.
The document describes the Maxim MAX1587A evaluation system, which consists of the MAX1587A evaluation kit and a companion CMAXQUSB board. The evaluation kit is a fully assembled and tested surface-mount PCB designed to evaluate the MAX1587A power-management IC, which integrates three high-performance synchronous step-down DC-DC power supplies, two low-dropout regulators, and a battery backup supply. The system is optimized for microprocessor-based applications.
