MAX3540 Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX3540 evaluation kit (EV kit) simplifies the test-
ing and evaluation of the MAX3540 NTSC, ATSC, and
hybrid tuner. The EV kit is fully assembled and tested at
the factory. Standard 50 Ω SMA connectors are includ-
ed on the EV kit for the inputs and outputs to allow
quick-and-easy evaluation on the test bench.
This document provides a list of equipment required to
evaluate the device, a straightforward test procedure to
