Tool/software:
Hi Team,
i am currently facing the following issue: I am trying to write a configuration application for a 2-device cascaded iwr6243 system. Before this, i already successfully created a config application for a single device application. For the cascaded software, i am following the API Sequence for Cascaded Device Mode described in the "mmWave Radar Interface Control Document".
The first 3 steps (Master Power On, Master Rf Power On and Master Channel Config) perform successfully. After this, those 3 steps need to be performed for the Slave. The Problem is, that the first step for the Slave already fails (Slave Power On). I can confirm, that the nReset Signal is correctly set, but the Slave does not set the HostIRQ accordingly (not even the Warm Reset).
What's interesting about this, is that when i change the order of the Devices, the same thing happens (Meaning I configure the Second Device as Master and then try to configure the Slave). This confirms, that both chips would power on independently.
What could the be the issue with this. I am unsure about the Cascade Pinout Config, because this value is not set in the Cascade Example.
P.S: I am using SOP=7, meaning I2C Mode and i am using a custom Board
Best regards,
Tim
