The MAX6960 evaluation kit (EV kit) provides a proven
design to evaluate the MAX6960 8 x 8 graphic LED tile
display driver. The EV kit board contains four MAX6960
LED display drivers, four 2.4in 8 x 8 bicolor LED tiles, a
4MHz oscillator, and logic buffers. Each MAX6960 EV
kit can be cascaded to support up to a total of 20
MAX6960 devices. The EV kit also includes Windows®
98SE/2000/XP-compatible software, which provides a
simple graphical user interface (GUI) for exercising the
MAX6960’s features.
The MAX6960 evaluation system (EV system) consists
of a MAX6960 EV kit and a companion Maxim
CMODUSB serial interface board. The Maxim
CMODUSB serial interface board allows an IBM-
compatible PC to use its USB port to emulate a serial
interface that is compatible with the MAX6960. Order
the MAX6960EVCMODU for a complete PC-based eval-
uation of the MAX6960. Order the MAX6960EVKIT if you
already have a MAX6960 compatible serial interface.
The EV kit includes a preinstalled MAX6960ATH.
