Other Parts Discussed in Thread: , UNIFLASH
Tool/software:
Hi team, we are working to create a custom board based on IWRL6432AOP radar sensor after using the IWRL6432AOPEVM board. There are some queries as following.
1. The QSPI flash on EVM board is used to store the app image for M4F MCU and we will also use the same with on board USB port. However I want to confirm that does the app image will be transferred to the QSPI flash in the same way as it is transferred to the EVM using UNIFLASH/Visualizer or something will change?
2. My requirement is to keep the power consumption minimum and operate the overall board(which consists radar circuit + host MCU) on battery. I want to have only the radar point cloud data TLV on UART to my host MCU, Hard Coded Configuration of Radar sensor and GPIO Interrupt based controlling the operation of radar sensor such as reading the one or two frame of TLV data and putting the sensor in LPDS mode then waking up again with Host MCU's GPIO pin drive and repeat the same process at Host's need.
I do not think that we have to have everything(although I am not sure need your help) that is on EVM board such as current measurement , CAN interface, DCA1000 interface, temperature measurement etc. It might save some power consumption and overall size of the board as well.
To design our custom board we have to copy the EVM board circuit on our board, based on my above requirement I want your suggestions that which part should be copied exactly and which can be ignored as we might not need them.
Thank You.
