Specifications of MAX2538EVKIT

Lead Free Status / RoHS Status
Lead free / RoHS Compliant
The MAX2530/MAX2531/MAX2538 evaluation kits (EV
kits) simplify evaluation of the MAX2351/MAX2354/
MAX2358/MAX2359/MAX2530/MAX2531/MAX2537/
MAX2538 high-performance, silicon germanium (SiGe)
BiCMOS, quad-mode LNA/mixer ICs. They enable test-
ing of the devices’ RF performance and require no
additional support circuitry. The signal inputs and out-
puts use SMA connectors to simplify the connection of
RF test equipment.
The MAX2530/MAX2531/MAX2538 EV kits are assem-
bled with an associated IC and incorporate input- and
output-matching components optimized for the 869MHz
to 894MHz cellular frequency band, 1930MHz to
1990MHz PCS frequency band, 1575.42MHz GPS fre-
quency band, and 183.6MHz IF output frequency. All
matching components can be changed to work at other
frequencies.
Use the Evaluation Kit Selector Guide to determine which
EV kit to order based on the application. For example,
to evaluate the MAX2354, use the MAX2530EVKIT.
