MAX6629 Evaluation Kit
General Description
The MAX6629 evaluation kit (EV kit) is an assembled and tested PC board that demonstrates the MAX6629 temperature sensor. It monitors the junction temperature of the MAX6629 and converts the temperature to 12-bit + sign data. Windows 95/98/2000(R)-compatible software provides a user-friendly interface to exercise the features of the MAX6629. The program is menu driven and offers a graphic interface with control buttons and temperature display. o SPITM-Compatible Serial Interface o Easy-to-Use Menu-Driven Software o Available in a 6-Pin SOT23 Package o Assembled and Tested o Includes Windows 95/98/2000-Compatible Software and Demo PC Board

*To evaluate the MAX6630, MAX6631, or MAX6632, order a free sample of the MAX6630MUT, MAX6631MUT, or MAX6632MUT.
Quick Start
Required Equipment
Before you begin, you will need the following equipment: * An IBM PC-compatible computer running Windows 95/98/2000 * A parallel printer port (this is a 25-pin socket on the back of the computer) * A standard 25-pin, straight-through, male-to-female cable (printer extension cable) to connect the computer's parallel port to the MAX6629 EV kit * A DC power supply capable of supplying any voltage between +7V and +20V at 100mA

1) Connect a cable from the computer's parallel port to the MAX6629 EV kit. Use a straight-through 25-pin female-to-male cable. To avoid damaging the EV kit or your computer, do not use a 25-pin SCSI port or any other connector that is physically similar to the 25-pin parallel printer port. 2) The MAX6629.EXE software program can be run from the floppy or hard drive. Use the Windows program manager to run the program. If desired, you may use the INSTALL.EXE program to copy the files

and create icons for them in the Windows 95/98/ 2000 Start menu. An uninstall program is included with the software. Click on the UNINSTALL icon to remove the EV kit software from the hard drive. 3) Connect the +7V to +20V supply to the pads labeled VIN and GND. 4) Turn on the power supply. 5) Start the MAX6629 program by opening its icon in the Start menu. 6) Observe as the program automatically detects the MAX6629 and starts the main program. To write data to the slave device, enter the data into the field labeled Data bytes to be written. Each data byte should be hexadecimal, prefixed by 0x, and separated with a comma. Press the Send Now button to write the data to the slave. Note: The MAX6629 is a read-only device and cannot be written to. To read data from the slave device, the field Data bytes to be written must contain hexadecimal values. Include the same number of bytes as to be read from the slave. For example, to read 16-bit data from the MAX6629, 2 bytes must be written, each prefixed by 0x and separated by a comma (default is 0x00, 0x00). Note: When using the SPI utility, uncheck the Automatic Read checkbox in the main display (Figure 1).
Detailed Description
Figure 1 is the main display for the MAX6629 EV kit.
User-Interface Panel
The user interface is easy to operate. Use either the mouse or the Tab key to navigate. Note: Words in bold face are user-selectable features in the software. The program continually polls the device for new temperature data. To disable the continuous polling of data, uncheck the Automatic Read checkbox. Press Read Temp to get the current temperature.
Data Logging
Check the Data Logging checkbox to activate data logging. Data logging saves temperature and status data to a text file that includes a time/date stamp next to each data point. If Automatic Read is enabled, data is sampled at 1Hz; however, the data is logged to the file only if the temperature changes. This slows the growth of the data-logging file. When Automatic Read is disabled, the data is logged each time the Read Temp button is clicked. To stop data logging, uncheck the Data Logging checkbox.

General-Purpose SPI Utility
There are two methods for communicating with the MAX6629: through the user-interface panel or through the general-purpose SPI utility. This utility (Figure 2) configures SPI parameters such as clock polarity (CPOL), clock phase (CPHA), and chip-select (CS) polarity. The fields where pin numbers are required apply to the pins of the parallel port connector. The utility handles the data only in byte (8-bit) format. Data longer than a byte must be handled as multiple bytes. For example, a 16-bit word should be broken into two 8-bit bytes.

MAX6629 Evaluation Kit
Evaluating with a Lower Voltage
The MAX6629 EV kit is configured for operating at +5V. To evaluate the MAX6629 at a lower voltage, cut the traces shorting the pins of JU2 and JU3. Apply the desired voltage (between +3V and +5V) to the VCC pad and apply +5V to the VINVERTER pad. Caution: Operating the 74HCT04 inverter with a supply voltage below +5V might damage the inverter.
Connecting to a Microcontroller
The MAX6629 EV kit can be monitored externally with a microcontroller or other control device by cutting the traces shorting the pins of JU4, JU5, and JU6 and connecting to the pads labeled SCK, CS, and SDO.

Evaluating the MAX6630/ MAX6631/MAX6632
The MAX6629 EV kit can also evaluate the MAX6630, MAX6631, or MAX6632. Remove the MAX6629 from the board and install the new part.
