IWR6843AOP: Is there an arm64 based software to flash the IWR6843AOP

Parthipan Siva

Part Number: IWR6843AOP
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH, ,

We are designing a home sensor device based on the IWR6843AOP (based on the IWR6843AOPEVM mission package reference design) connected to an ARM64 system on a module (SoM). We are prototyping it with the IWR6843AOPEVM at the moment. We would like the ability to flash the IWR6843AOP over the air using the SoM. Is there a TI utility or codebase available for flashing the IWR6843AOP from an arm64 that is running Linux? Currently we are using uniflash but it is not available for arm64 architecture.

Any codebase or streamline utility for flashing the IWR6843AOP from an arm architecture would be of great help to us. If there is an alternative that you can suggest for our use case that would also work.

Hello,

For programming the device while deployed (for applications like Over The Air), we recommend using the secondary bootloader (SBL). Please find the SBL and all of its documentation in the mmWave SDK.

Thanks for the information! That looks like what we need. Will look into it and open a new ticket if I have any specific questions on the SBL.
