Tool/software:
Hi, recently I have started using the AWR1843BOOST, also in conjunction with the DCA1000EVM and the mmWave studio. Where on of the options in the StaticConfig tab is RF LDO Bypass.
Within the guide to the AWR1843BOOST: https://www.ti.com/lit/ug/spruim4b/spruim4b.pdf page 16 and 17 it is stated that: "to prevent damage to the device, select the 'RF LDO Bypass Enable' and 'PA LDO I/P Disable' options in the Static Configuration"
Yet in the guide to the mmWave Studio GUI: https://dr-download.ti.com/software-development/ide-configuration-compiler-or-debugger/MD-h04ItoajtS/02.01.01.00/mmwave_studio_user_guide.pdf page 24 it is stated that: "RF LDO bypass option should not be enabled on EVMs. If RF LDOs are enabled, EVM may get damaged.". As you see this guide makes no distinction between any mmWave chips so I would assume it also refers to the AWR1843BOOST.
Thus I am unsure what setting should I use so that I do not damage my chip AWR1843BOOST?
