RTOS/AWR1642BOOST: Using DSS_UART

Andrew Andrew

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST

Tool/software: TI-RTOS

Ladies and Gentlemens, the question is: how to use uart on dss in mww_wave demo.

I have read folowings:

But I am sill not be able to transfer any data via dss_uart using function UART_writePolling(gMmwDssMCB.loggingUartHandle, *data, size).

I tried both COM4 and COM5 with different speeds but there is no data from dss.

Maybe there are some additional settings for using dss_uart like initialization in code or changing jumpers or something else. It would be great to see step by step instruction how to do dss_uart data transfer.

Looking forward to your answers.

Hello Andrew,

On AWR1642BOOST two COM ports are assigned to MSS UARTs (one for CLI [Tx/Rx] and other is for Data object transmission [Tx only]).

If you need to use DSS UART then you need to stack up AWR1642BOOST with MMWAVE-DEVPACK, where DSS UART directs to COM port (3rd) enumerated via DEVPACK.

Jitendra

Hello Jitendra,

Thank you for your answer it is very helpfull. Now I understand that I can use DSS UART on AWR1642BOOST directly on J5 connector 4th pin according to schematic documentation of MMWAVE-DEVPACH.

DSS UART works for me now.

Best regards,

Andrew

Hello Andrew,

I have a same problem with you, and I still do not know how to transfer data, can you give me more details about this?

Really thanks,
