general description the max6683 evaluation system (ev system) consists of a max6683 evaluation kit (ev kit) and a companion maxim cmodusb board. the max6683 ev kit is an assembled and tested print- ed circuit board (pcb) that demonstrates the max6683 temperature sensor and system monitor. the max6683 monitors temperature, supply voltage, and the voltage of three external supplies. temperature is converted to 11-bit serial data and voltage to 8-bit data. the cmodusb allows a pc to use its usb port to emu- late an intel smbus. windows 98se/2000/xp-compati- ble software provides a user-friendly interface to exercise the features of the max6683. the program is menu driven and offers a graphic interface with control buttons and status display. order the ev system (MAX6683EVCMODU) for a com- plete pc-based evaluation of the max6683. order just the ev kit (max6683evkit) if you already have an smbus interface. to evaluate the max6652, order a free sample of the max6652aub. features ? measure and display the max6683 temperature ? monitor four voltage channels three external (1.8v, 2.5v, and 5v nominal) v cc pin (3.3v nominal) ? programmable alarms and configuration ? smbus/i 2 c compatible ? easy-to-use menu-driven software ? fully assembled and tested ? include windows 98se/2000/xp-compatible software and demo pcb ? ev system includes usb connectivity evaluate: max6652/max6683 max6683 evaluation system/evaluation kit ________________________________________________________________ maxim integrated products 1 designation qty description c1, c2 2 0.1?, 16v x 7r cer am i c cap aci tor s tai yo y ud en e m k107bj104ka m ur ata grm 188r71c 104ka01 td k c 1608x 7r1c 104k c3 1 2.2 f, 16v x 7r cer am i c cap aci tor tai yo y ud en e m k316bj225m l m ur ata grm 42- 6x 7r225k016 td k c 3216x 7r1c 225m j1 1 2 ? 10 right-angle female ju1 1 2 ? 4 straight header ju2 0 not installed r1, r2, r3 3 10k ? ?% resistors r4 1 470k ? ?% resistor sw1 1 slide switch u1 1 max6683aub u2 1 max1615euk 1 shunt for ju1 1 pcb: max6683 evaluation kit component lists max6683 ev system max6683 ev kit ordering information 19-2343; rev 1; 3/07 for pricing, delivery, and ordering information, please contact maxim/dallas direct! at 1-888-629-4642, or visit maxim? website at www.maxim-ic.com. note: the max6683 ev kit software is provided with the max6683evkit. however, the cmodusb board is required to interface the ev kit to the computer when using the software. part temp range interface type max6683evkit 0? to +70? not included MAX6683EVCMODU 0? to +70? cmodusb smbus is a trademark of intel corp. windows is a registered trademark of microsoft corp. + denotes lead-free and rohs compliance. part qty description max6683evkit 1 max6683 evaluation kit cmodusb+ 1 serial interface board
