MAXIM max735 evaluation kit Manual
The MAX734 Evaluation Kit is a 12 V step‑up, switch‑mode converter designed to supply a stable 12 V flash‑memory programming rail from low‑voltage sources as low as 4.75 V. It delivers up to 120 mA output current, achieves about 85 % conversion efficiency, and includes a shutdown pin for ultra‑low quiescent current.
The manual provides ordering information, a component list, wiring diagrams, test procedures, troubleshooting charts, and detailed guidance on noise, ripple, EMI, and input‑voltage considerations for both bench‑top and battery‑powered applications.
