The EV kit is designed to facilitate manual program-

ming of the MAX1452 with a sensor. It includes the fol-

lowing:

1) Evaluation Board with or without a silicon pressure

sensor, ready for customer evaluation.

2) Design/Applications Manual, which describes in

detail the architecture and functionality of the

MAX1452. This manual was developed for test

engineers familiar with data acquisition of sensor

data and provides sensor compensation algorithms

and test procedures.

3) MAX1452 Communication Software, which enables

programming of the MAX1452 from a computer

keyboard (IBM compatible), one module at a time.

4) Interface Adapter, which allows the connection of

the evaluation board to a PC serial port.
