AWR6843AOPEVM: Getting RAW sensor Data Over UART

K P

Part Number: AWR6843AOPEVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MMWAVEICBOOST

Can we get direct sensor data over UART so I CAN connect it to a TTL Converter and read it on a microcontroller.

On other forum posts I found that we need to use the MSS_Logger pin on BOOST package. Can we do it without that?

Hello KP,

Is there a reason you do not want to use the MSS_Logger pin?

Because I do not have MMWAVICBOOST board and the application requires using multiple sensors, using the boost board for each sensor is simply not practical for me

Hello KP,

Have you considered using a MUX, e.g. as described here:

(+) [FAQ] What Analog Switch / Multiplexer Should I use for UART Applications? - Switches & multiplexers forum - Switches & multiplexers - TI E2E support forums

Also, your local TI rep should be able to help you acquire one of the MMWAVEICBOOST boards.

Regards,

James
