SMT4214 Evaluation Kit
Quik-Start User's Guide Summary

General Description.
The SMT4214EVAL kit contains a fully functional evaluation board designed to demonstrate the features of the SMT4214 Master/Slave Quad Tracking Manager. The evaluation board contains 2 SMT4214's working in tandem to monitor and track (or soft-start) as many as 8 unique power supplies. The EVAL board uses very low R_DS(on) N-Channel MOSFETs capable of handling up to 26A per channel. The SMT4214 features on-board nonvolatile memory making it truly 'User-Programmable' for easy evaluation in virtually any system power architecture. This also allows for minor 'painless' tweaks both in a manufacturing and field environments.

Several key, user-configurable functions are:
1.	Power up/down management.
2.	User-programmable undervoltage (UV) trip points with fault outputs (RST#, IRQ#).
3.	Undervoltage (UV) fault monitoring (20mV increments).
4.	Programmable IRQ, Reset, Force Shutdown action.
5.	Programmable gate voltages (10.5 or 14.5V)
Additional features included on the EVAL board:
	User-programmable undervoltage (UV) trip points User-Programmable interface to digitally control analog supervisory functions
	LED visual indicators (20)
	Master Reset (MR#), IRQ_CLR#, FORCE_SD# and PWR_ON momentary pushbuttons
	EZ-connect power and signal pins
	Spring-loaded sockets (2) for convenient evaluation
