IWR1843AOP: IWR1843AOP & DCA1000 – Any Differences from IWR1843BOOST?

Tool/software:

Hi everyone,

I noticed that the IWR1843AOP isn’t explicitly mentioned in the DCA1000 documentation, while the IWR1843BOOST is. Does the IWR1843AOP require any special considerations when using it with the DCA1000 for raw data capture, or is it treated the same as the IWR1843BOOST?

If there are any differences in setup, configuration, or data handling, I’d appreciate any insights.

Thanks!

Hello

IWR1843AOP came out much later than other generation 1 TI mmWave sensors, as well as later than 6843AOP. It is for that reason that many pieces of documentation does not list it, but it does have the capability of capturing raw data when used in tandem with a MMWAVEICBOOST. For simplicity sake, if possible an IWR6843AOP may be the better selection from a development and support standpoint.

Best Regards,

Pedrhom

Hello Pedrhom,

Thanks for the answer!

But does the MMWAVEICBOOST support real time raw data streaming? or do any of the TI devices support this feature for that matter?

Hello,

If by real time you mean observing the data as it comes in then the answer is no. They are compiled into .bin's once recording has finished or the max file size is reached.

Best Regards,
