IWR1443BOOST: COM port of PC send to IWR1443BOOST or from IWR1443BOOST

Part Number: IWR1443BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR1443

Dear sir

I have heard that when I send a Configuration File from the PC to the IWR1443BOOST through serial communication (USB, UART) between the IWR1443BOOST and the PC, the detection data is returned from the IWR1443BOOST.

Is it okay to use one COM port in this case? If two are required, how should they be used?For example, will COM5 be the configuration sending port from the PC to IWR1443BOOST, and COM4 be the detection data receiving port from IWR1443BOOST?

Please kindly advise.

P.S.

I have been inquiring about a resource site regarding Configuration File for some time, but I cannot find it using the information you have provided (site address).

It's been more than 3 weeks since I contacted you. If possible, please show me how to write a configuration file or a sample file.

Thank you.

  • Hi Hiromichi,

    The demo with IWR1443BOOST uses 2 ports, one for sending the CFG and other for getting the data from the sensor. Both the COM ports work at different baud rates

    XDS110 Application port is used to sent the cfg file and it works at baud of 115200

    XDS110 Data port is used by the sensor to send data out and it works at baud of 921600

    You can get the cfg file for IWR1443 from the below location

    mmwave_sdk_02_01_00_04\packages\ti\demo\xwr14xx\mmw\profiles

    You can get the SDK at the following location
