AWR2243BOOST: AWR2243Boost DFP for linux

Hi,

Our support team is not clear what you are trying to do.

You probably don't need a DFP for linux.

Are you trying to capture raw data from a Linux Host? Is it a PC?

Thank you
Cesar

Hi Cesar, 

I just want to use linux system to configur AWR2243Boost using DFP (linux based) and for capture /record data and processing through our own IPs in python or C, So Wrt above query i want to know do you have DFP support for linux OS or how to modify any dependencies needed for the DFP for linux to configur control RADAR AWR2243Boost and start getting doppler output to DCA1000EVM 

Thanks Cesar, 

just another doubt,  in side MMWAVE_DFP 02.02.05.00 zip there is  mmWaveLink_SingleChip_NonOS_Example and a control folder there is lib folder, so i want to know 

1.  Is .lib (COFF format for TI cores only , windows or it supports Linux oS as well?

2. mmWaveLink_SingleChip_NonOS_Example can be used for linux based x86 system or only for linux based processor or Ti cores?

Please help me with these questions, Thanks  

Hi,

Running the mmWaveLink libraries with an OS such as Linux require porting effort. 

mmWaveLink requires Interrupt, GPIO, SPI resources. When using Linux OS, these resources must be managed from Linux (through drivers or user space)

The example you mentioned is running on Windows using the mmWave Studio library to manage the GPIO, SPI through FTDI.

Even if it is called "mmWaveLink_SingleChip_NonOS_Example", it still uses a Windows lib for GPIO and SPI communication.

The "NonOS" terminology refers to the fact that mmWaveLink runs without using any OS resources (mutex...)

I hope this helps.

Thank you
Cesar

Hi Cesar, 

Thanks for your valuable inputs, it helped me ,

before closing thread i have a small confusion , 

Can we configure AWR2243Boost without help of any DFP packages and mmwavestudio to get the real-time output data (like lvds data) via AWR2243?, if yes then how to pls help me .

thanks
