sampling frequencies. Forced-PWM operation uses
higher supply current with no load compared to skip
mode. See Table 3 for JU3 configuration.
The MAX8506 EV kit circuit board comes with the
MAX8506 converter installed. The MAX8506 EV kit
board can also be used to evaluate the MAX8507/
MAX8508 converters. To evaluate the MAX8507 with
the MAX8506 EV kit, replace the MAX8506ETE with the
MAX8507ETE, and change R1 to 15kΩ and C4 to
1000pF.

MAX8506 Evaluation Kit
To evaluate the MAX8508 with the MAX8506 EV kit,
replace the MAX8506ETE with the MAX8508ETE,
remove C5, and then install feedback resistors on R2
and C5 pads. Change R1 to 5.62kΩ and C4 to 2700pF.
The output voltage, VOUT
to 3.4V range. Select a feedback resistor, R
between 5kΩ and 50kΩ and install on the C5 pads. R2
is determined by the following equation:
