Hi Ti team!

I need to reduce ECU current, and it is implemented with AWR6843AOP.

I just involved in AWR6843AOP prject recently. So I don't have much idea of it.

1st question.

So, I am asking how to turn off BSS(RF), DSS while MSS run.

(because I need to keep CAN comm. even the radar off.)

Would you give some document about flow information?

2nd question.

I heard from other engineer, once the radar turn on, it's not available to trun off.

Only reset is the way to turn off. <- Is it true?

Hi,

The radar data o/p can be turned off using sensorStop CLI command. But I am not sure of the context you are asking this question. Can you please provide some additional details on the use case?

Hi Sudharshan K N

If the sensor stop command works, How is the standby current on the state?

Can you please answer to my question since the datasheet does not say about it?

Thanks.

Regards,

Jack
