MAX9723DEVKIT+

General Description
The MAX9723D evaluation kit (EV kit) is a fully assem-
bled and tested PCB that evaluates the MAX9723
stereo DirectDrive
TM
headphone amplifier with
BassMax, volume control, and I
2
C. The MAX9723D EV
kit operates from a single 1.8V to 3.6V power supply,
and is capable of delivering 60mW into a 16 load.
The MAX9723D evaluation system (EV system) includes
a MAX9723D EV kit, Windows 98SE/2000/XP-compati-
ble software, and a Maxim system command module.
The software’s graphical user interface (GUI) allows
easy control of the MAX9723D’s I
2
C interface, adjusting
settings such as BassMax and volume.
Order the complete EV system (MAX9723DEVC-
MODU+ or MAX9723DEVCMOD2+) for a comprehen-
sive evaluation of the MAX9723A/MAX9723B/
MAX9723C/MAX9723D using a PC. Order the EV kit
(MAX9723DEVKIT+) if the CMODUSB+ or CMOD232+
system command module has already been purchased
with a previous Maxim EV system, or for custom use in
other microcontroller-based (µC) systems.
The EV kit comes with the MAX9723DETE+ installed.
Contact the factory for free samples of the pin-compati-
ble MAX9723A/MAX9723B/MAX9723C to evaluate
these parts.

Denotes a lead-free and RoHS-compliant EV kit.
Note: The MAX9723D EV kit software is included with the
MAX9723D EV kit, but is designed for use with the complete EV
system. The EV system includes a Maxim system command
module (CMODUSB+ or CMOD232+) and the EV kit. If the
Windows software will not be used, the EV kit board can be pur-
chased without the Maxim system command module.

Note: In the following sections, software-related items
are identified by bolding. Text in bold refers to items
directly from the EV kit software. Text in bold and
underlined refers to items from the Windows 98SE/
2000/XP operating system.
Procedure
Follow the steps below to verify board operation.
Caution: Do not turn on the power supply until all con-
nections are complete.
1) Visit the Maxim website (www.maxim-ic.com/evkit-
software) to download the most recent version of
the EV kit software, 9723RXX.ZIP. Save the EV kit
software to a temporary folder and uncompress the
ZIP file.
2) Install the MAX9723D EV kit software on your com-
puter by running the INSTALL.EXE program inside
the temporary folder. The program files are copied
and icons are created in the Windows Start |
Programs menu.
3) Carefully connect the system command module to
the EV kit by aligning the 20-pin connector of the
MAX9723D EV kit with the 20-pin header of the
Maxim system command module interface board.
4) Enable the pullup resistors on the system command
module by making sure the SDA switch and SCL
switch (both on SW1) are thrown on.
5) If using Maxim’s serial-interface board (CMOD232+),
connect a 9-pin male-to-female cable from the com-
puter’s serial port to CMOD232+. CMOD232+
requires a 9V power supply to P1 (DC IN). For regu-
lated 3.3V output voltage, install a shunt across pins
1-2 of J1 on the CMOD232+. If using Maxim’s USB
interface board (CMODUSB+), connect the A-to-B
USB cable from the computer’s USB port to
CMODUSB+. CMODUSB+ requires no external
power as it is powered from the PC USB port. For reg-
ulated 3.3V output, install a shunt across pins 2-3 of
J1 on the CMODUSB+.
6) Ensure that a shunt is placed across pins 1-2 of
JU3 on the MAX9723D EV kit board.

7) Connect a 3.3V power supply between the pads
labeled V
DD
and GND on the MAX9723D EV kit
board.
8) Ensure that the input audio source is turned off.
9) Connect the stereo audio source to the pads
labeled RIN, LIN, and GND on the MAX9723D EV
kit board.
10) Plug the headphones into the 3.5mm headphone
jack on the MAX9723D EV kit board.
11) Turn on the DC power supply.
12) Enable the audio source.
13) Start the MAX9723 program by opening its icon in the
Windows Start
menu. Select the device slave
address from the device pulldown menu. See Table 1.
Detailed Description of Software
Device Selection and Slave Address
The MAX9723 has an I
2
C-compatible interface that
allows serial communication between the MAX9723
and a microcontroller. The MAX9723 is available with
one of two preset slave addresses (see Table 1). The
MAX9723D EV kit ships with the MAX9723D. Change
IC U1 to evaluate other devices. Samples of other
MAX9723 devices are available through Maxim’s web-
site at www.maxim-ic.com.
The Device pulldown menu allows the user to select
the device slave address. Select the slave address of
the device being evaluated at startup. See Figure 2 for
details.
