AWR2944: Specification of HWA 2.0

Part Number: AWR2944
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR1843,

Hi

I have some questions about HWA 2.0.

1) Where is  HWA 2.0 user guide?
    I confirmed that there is HWA 1.0 user guide for IWR1843.

2) Is it possible to use HWA for applications other than FFT, CFAR and log magnitude?
    For example, Is it possible to use the HWA to execute a custom complex multiplication operation?

3) Is input data for HWA 2.0 complex number only?
    For example, When I input Real number for HWA, should the Q sample be zero?

Regards,

Naoya

  • Hi Naoya,

    1. The user guide for the HWA 2.0/2.1 can be found within the latest version of the Technical Reference Manual for AWR2944 (can be found in the product page).
    2.  Yes, it would be possible. You can program your paramsets based on its functionality (as described in the TRM) to achieve the operation you intend to.
    3. The HWA 2.0 supports both real and complex data inputs. The input formatter has a srcReal bit described within the paramset which will tell it how to interpret the data.
