IWR1843BOOST: IWR1843BOOST

Part Number: IWR1843BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH

Hey,

I've recently started development on IWR1843BOOST Board. 

I'm trying to build GNU based codes available in "C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_03_05_00_04\packages\ti\drivers\gpio\test\xwr18xx".
I'm able to build the environment, but after building the test codes, I'm getting the .xer4f files, not the .bin files that I wish to flash into the IWR1843BOOST board using UniFlash tool.

I've attached the screenshot of the test/iwr18xx folder contents.

To build the test code, I've referred to section 4.5 of the mmwave_sdk_user_guide.pdf.
Please help in letting me know the steps required to generate .bin files.

Regards
Arpit

  • Hi,

    For the unit tests, this is intentional since you will typically want to load the Unit tests onto the device via CCS so that you can see the status prints go to the console. If you run the binary only, I do not believe you will see the prints that tell you whether the test has passed. If you want to build these into a .bin file anyways, you can look at the post-build steps that are used in the make files for the out of box demo included in the mmWave SDK, and copy them to the make files for the driver unit tests.

    Best Regards,
