IWR6843ISK: Regarding taking output from IWR6843ISK

Part Number: IWR6843ISK
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MMWAVEICBOOST, IWR6843,

Hello,

Currently I am taking data by connecting micro USB on mmwaveicboost. What out is obtained by connecting to DCA  via RJ45?

Thanks and regards,

    Hello Aleena,

    The DCA board allows you to access data on the high speed LVDS port. This is useful for outputting ADC data from the antennas, in case you want or need to bypass the processing done on board the IWR6843 and perform or verify offline on a different processor (like PC).

    Hello Jackson,

    Okay. Also I would like to know that,

    1) Is there any way to take the output of the IWR6843ISK using RJ45?

    2)  If we connect multiple DCA's at a site how we can integrate from a network (Cat6 RJ45 cable)?

    3) Is there any way to connect POE?

    Thanks and Regards,

    Hi Aleena,

    1. Do you want to output the pointcloud and tracker data from UART to the RJ45 port? Or do you want the raw ADC data? There is no way to use the DCA board to output the pointcloud and tracker data, I think it is only configured to output raw ADC data.

    2. This is not possible with the DCA board port. But it is possible if you have another device like a beaglebone controlling the IP connection. There will be an example of this in the next toolbox release.

    3. Please see the following link for an example of PoE with the mmWave devices. If you use POE+network connection it will need to be modified and likely not supported by the board. But the schematics are available for examples.
