AM62L: SDK support of V-LD3 Radar Sensor

Parv Patel

Part Number: AM62L
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MMWAVE-L-SDK, , IWRL6432

Tool/software:

HIi,

I am using the AM62L board and would like to connect the V-LD3-RFB radar sensor to it. There are two SDKs available on the TI website under the MMWAVE-L-SDK section (MMWAVE-L-SDK Software development kit (SDK) | TI.com):

MMWAVE-L-SDK
MMWAVE-L-SDK-6

Could you please clarify which SDK supports the V-LD3 radar sensor for use with the AM62L board?

Best,
Parv

Hello Parv

We have not done any testing of hardware or software with AM62L and MMWAVE SDKs. I have transferred this thread to Radar team to see if they can provide any generic guidance on this.

What is your application use-case and what boards are you using to test this ? How are you interfacing the boards ?

Hello Parv,

For 6432 chipset, we recommend starting off by trying the Motion and Presence demo found in the MMWAVE-L-SDK (05.XX.XX)

https://www.ti.com/tool/download/MMWAVE-L-SDK

After installation:
