MAX4951EVKIT+, Evaluation Kit for the MAX4951 SATA I/SATA II Bidirectional Re-Driver

MAX4951EVKIT+, Evaluation Kit (EV kit) provides a proven design to evaluate the MAX4951 dual-channel buffer. The EV kit contains four sections: an application circuit, a characterization circuit and two calibration traces. The application circuit is designed to demonstrate the use of the MAX4951 in redriving serial-ATA (SATA) and eSATA Gen I and Gen II signals. This section of the EV kit operates from an external +5V supply that is regulated by an on-board LDO to +3.3V, which powers the MAX4951 (U1) device
