The MAX1280 EV kit provides a proven printed-circuit
board (PCB) layout to evaluate the MAX1280. It must
be interfaced to appropriate timing signals for proper
operation. Connect +5V to VDD1 and VDD2, and con-
nect the ground return to GND. See the MAX1280 EV
kit schematic (Figure 1). Refer to the MAX1280 IC data
sheet for timing requirements.
