There are two methods for communicating with the
MAX9598: through the normal user-interface main win-
dow or through the I
ing the Options | Interface (Advanced Users) from the
menu bar. A display pops up that allows the
SMBus™/I
and Write Byte, to be executed. The only SMBus/I
compatible protocols used by the MAX9598 are:
•
•
The combo and edit boxes accept numeric data in
hexadecimal and should be prefixed by 0x. See Figure
4 for an example of this tool.
In the example shown in Figure 4, the software is read-
ing from device address 1001011 r/w binary and regis-
ter address 0x01.

MAX9598 Evaluation Kit
The MAX9598 EV kit is an assembled and tested PCB
that demonstrates the features of the MAX9598 dual
SCART audio/video switch matrix. It routes audio, video,
and control signals between a set-top box decoder chip
and the TV and VCR SCART connectors. All video con-
nections are made through 75Ω controlled-impedance
traces. Connect a TV and VCR to the corresponding
SCART connectors. The set-top box decoder video con-
nections are made through the 75Ω BNC jacks with the
ENC prefix. Audio signals from the stereo audio DAC
are connected to the white and red (P4 and P5) RCA
phono jacks. Monitor the R/C inputs of the VCR connec-
tions through the VCR_R/C_IN BNC jack.
