AWRL1432: Merging BSD application DEMO code and SDK 5.4.0.1

Part Number: AWRL1432
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSCONFIG

Tool/software:

Dear owner,

I am currently using SDK 5.4.0.1 and testing with the default example application, which integrates and tests correctly.

Our team previously provided the "Vmax-extension_v0.98 SDK" compatible with SDK 5.3.0.2. This firmware was provided by TI.

We have now migrated to SDK 5.4.0.1 and discovered 'AWRL1432_ADAS_BSD_DEMO_v2.0' within our company, which is also provided by TI.

 

I would like to confirm the following points:

  1. The document "AWRL1432_ADAS_BSD_DEMO_v2.0\docs\GettingStartedGuide.pdf" uses CCS. Can I integrate the project using MAKEFILE?
  2. The project documentation mentions compatibility with SDK 5.4.0.1. However, when I try to integrate and overwrite firmware\mmwave_dfp\mmwavelink\mmwavelink.h, I notice a version mismatch.
    • The original M_RL_MMWAVELINK_VERSION in SDK 5.4.0.1 is "3.2.0.3.10.1.24".
    • The version provided by AWRL1432_ADAS_BSD_DEMO_v2.0 is "3.2.0.0.17.12.23".

      The document instructs to override the firmware\mmwave_dfp folder using the one provided in AWRL1432_ADAS_BSD_DEMO_v2.0. Which version should I use?

  3. Is there a new version of this application available? If so, where can I download it, from mySecureSW? 
  4. The current SDK 5.4.0.1 sysconfig ("tool":"1.18.0+3266") includes:

 

const mmwave_demo = scripting.addModule("/demo/mmwave_demo/mmwave_demo", {}, false);

const mmwave_demo1 = mmwave_demo.addInstance();

 

Whereas, the sysconfig provided by AWRL1432_ADAS_BSD_DEMO_v2.0 ("tool":"1.17.0+3128") does not include this.

 

Is this mmwave_demo already integrated into SDK 5.4.0.1, or is it a separate application package?

My understanding is that code package of BSD application includes the "vmax extension".

I am uncertain whether SDK 5.4.0.1 already contains this.

 

Thank you for your clarification and assistance.

 

Best regards, DANA

After syncing with my internal colleague, the scenario he previously tested was SDK 5.3.4.1 + BSD application 2.0, not SDK 5.4.0.1. Are there differences between these two SDK versions?

If I use 5.4.0.1, can the BSD application (with vmax integrated?) be integrated?

Currently, when I directly integrate SDK 5.4.0.1 with the BSD application, there are issues with compiling, primarily due to differences in the struct definitions between mmwave_demo.h and dpc.h, which cause compilation failures.

Additionally, how can I access mySecureSW? The current connection shows:

"You do not have any secure resources
(Learn more about TI design resources)"

Thanks.

  • Hi Dana, 

    Thanks for the inquiry. The BSD demo v2.0 is compatible with the AWRL1432 ES2.0 device and the MMWAVE-L-SDK5.3.4.1 as your colleague mentioned. SDK5.3.4.1 is an early release for ES2.0 that is also available on mySecureSW. SDK5.4.0.1 is compatible with the AWRL1432 ES1.1 device, an earlier version.

    Regarding getting access to mySecureSW, let me message you.

    Thank you,

    Jin

  • Dear Jin,

    Thank you for your response. I would like to confirm the following points:

    1. According to the document MMWAVE_L_SDK_05_04_00_01/docs/api_guide_xwrL14xx/MMWAVE_DEMO.html

    The BSD application can be configured through SysConfig. Does this have the same functionality as AWRL1432_ADAS_BSD_DEMO_v2.0.zip?

    2. Since SDK 5.4.0.1 has been released, we are currently preparing to migrate to ES2.0. Therefore, the SDK we should use is SDK 5.4.0.1 instead of SDK 5.3.4.1 (Early release), right?

    3. In the previous public release of SDK 5.3.0.1, the Vmax-extension v0.98 SDK (an internal release from TI) was introduced to achieve speed extension. Has this feature already been implemented in SDK 5.4.0.1, allowing us to apply it to rear BSD applications?

    Best regards,

    DANA

  • Hi Dana,

    As SDK5.3.4.1 is an internal release, let me follow up with you directly. Closing this thread. 

    Thank you,

    Jin

  • Hi Jin,

       Can you also share the AWRL1432_ADAS_BSD_DEMO_v2.0 and MMWAVE-L-SDK5.3.4.1 with me? We want these as well. I have sent a friendship request to you, can you accept it when it's convenient for you?

    Thank you very much.

    BR,

    Rata

  • Hi Rata, 

    Only the BSD demo binaries are publicly available at this time. Please check your DMs.

    Thank you,
