The MAX4886EVKIT+ from Maxim Integrated Products is a MAX4886 evaluation kit. This tested surface mount printed circuit board (PCB) contains two sub circuits, a typical 2:1 HDMI switch application (top half) and an eye diagram test circuit (bottom half). The MAX4886 HDMI application circuit evaluates MAX4886 high speed HDMI/DVI 2:1 digital video switch, combined with the MAX4929E for lower frequency signals to provide a full 2:1 HDMI application circuit. HDMI input/output connections are also provided to easily interface with HDMI compatible devices. A separate test circuit is also provided at the bottom of the MAX4886 EV kit for eye diagram evaluation using SMA connections and 50 ohm controlled impedance traces. Applications include 1000 Base-BX switching, digital HDTV switch boxes/tuners, digital video recorders, HDTV monitors/receivers, LVDS switching, multimedia audio/video switchers, notebook computers, servers/routers with DVI interfaces and video projectors.
