IWR6843AOP: Sending Data and Receiving Commands via CLI Port

Robert Greger

Part Number: IWR6843AOP

I have a microcontroller with only one available UART for connection to a board with an IWR6843AOP. Can I use just one UART on the IWR6843AOP for both configuration and data? Is there a reference design or demo software for that implementation?

Hi,

You can do this, but you'll need to modify the demo code. Can you simply use a hard-coded configuration for the device? Or do you need to configure via the other controller?

Best,

Nate

You should be able to combine them both to a single UART. Are you having trouble with this? You would need to change the SW. We don't have a reference for this as far as I know, but it would just mean merging all the UART calls to the same UART. I think it should be straightforward.

Best,

Nate
