Hi,

We don't have any example code but can you please give more details on how ESP32 interfaces with AWRL6432?

Mostly use UART, I2C and SPI communication, is it can communication with radar sensor ?

Hey Yoong,

It should be possible to interface with an ESP32 through any of those communication means as the AWRL6432 supports all those interfaces. While we don't have example code for communicating with another microprocessor, I would recommend looking over the respective peripheral driver examples in the MMWAVE-L-SDK for I2C, SPI, and UART.

You can find the documentation for different peripheral driver examples in the Resource Explorer MMWAVE L SDK xWRL64xx User Guide under Examples and Demos -> SOC and Board Peripheral Drivers. This user guide document can also be found in the top level folder of the MMWAVE-L-SDK as README_FIRST_xWRL6432.html if you download and install it locally.

Let us know if you have any other questions, but please a give a look through the documentation beforehand.

Regards,

Kristien
