AWR1843BOOST: AWR 1843boost

Part Number: AWR1843BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1642, AWR1843AOPEVM

I had mistakenly connected the device rto 12 V for 10 seconds. Is is possible to recover the module since it is very expensive

  • Hello,

    The LM53635 can accept an input voltage of up to 36V, so it should not have damaged the board by supplying 12V.

  • We flashed the AWR1843Boost radar using binary file for getting Obstacle Data Over CAN  xwr16xx_odoc_ti_design_lab.bin for AWR1642 module.

    Our use case is obstacle avoidance for UAVs. (Specifically the obstacles for our UAVs are trees, wires and poles in agricultural fields)

    Module is already set to data and CAN mode. We are trying to read data over CAN from an IMX board having CAN ports. We see the following signals on oscilloscope for CAN H and CAN L pins(attached) . However we are unable to read any data over CAN using candump from IMX7 CAN ports

    1)Is the xwr16xx_odoc_ti_design_lab .bin (TI Object data over CAN labs) file compatible to AWR1843Boost

    2)Apart from turning the module to functional mode(001 switch(, and CAN mode, do I need to make any other changes to read data from the module.

    3) Is there any readymade code available to directly read data over CAN ports.

    4)AWR1843boost (3d sensing) is an evaluation module and is large in size for our use case. Does TI have any other module of similar capability with smaller form factor?

  • Hello Mihir,

    Can you please start another thread for your additional queries? If your original question is answered we should close this thread since your additional questions are not related to the original query.

    However, to answer you last question, we do not have a smaller form factor version of the AWR1843BOOST. We do have the AWR1843AoPEVM, but the RF performance is not as high as the AWR1843BOOST since the antenna is integrated onto the package.
