AWR1642BOOST: AWR1642BOOST: Establishing UART Communication with AWR1642BOOST Using PuTTY

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1642

Hello everyone,

I am currently working on a project with the AWR1642BOOST radar sensor and need some assistance establishing UART communication. My goal is to send and receive data through the TX and RX pins using PuTTY. We need to send the data to STM32H769. 

So far,

  • I have done mmwave gesture recognition in python code through XDS serial and data port. 
  • No data is being displayed in the PuTTY terminal when the sensor is supposed to be transmitting.
  • Unable to send commands or data from PuTTY to the AWR1642BOOST.


How can we achieve UART communication using USB to UART cable and without microUSB PC connection in AWR1642? Is there any driver to be installed for to initialize UART for J6 connector?

If someone can provide me with some sources or github references that would be helpful. 



Thank you,

Pritha
