Part Number: AWR1843

Is it okay to think that the AWR1843 Bootloader is in the ROM of the MSS Arm-Cortex R4f?

Is the program included in the SDK?

Hi,

AWR1843 ROM bootloader runs on MSS ARM R4F and that code is NOT available in the SDK.

However secondary bootloader (SBL) which can be used to load main application after ROM bootloader. And source code/reference is available in the SDK.

C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_03_05_00_04\packages\ti\utils\sbl

Hello, thank you for your reply.
Is it okay to assume that the AWR1843 ROM boot loader is already installed?

So is it okay to recognize that it is from SBL that you need to load the AWR1843 application?

Yes, ROM bootloader is already part of AWR1843.

With ROM bootloader you can either directly load main application or load SBL first which further loads main application.
