AWR1243: Test Pattern Generator Support.

Part Number: AWR1243
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MMWAVE-DFP

Is there a way to place the AWR1243 into a known output  test pattern?  Or another method for validating the data interface between the AWR1243 and host?  I am looking for a feature that is similar to what is mentioned in the AR14xx/AR16xx Technical Reference Manual on section 12.1.3.

  • Hi Dustin,

    I'll have to talk to someone on the AWR team about this. We should have a response for you sometime on Monday.


    Cheers,

  • Hello Dustin,

    You can use Radar APIs to configure and enable a test source at a fixed location and get the ADC output corresponding to the test source target using the AWR1243.

    You can use the API:
    rlSetTestSourceConfig() to configure the test source and rlTestSourceEnable() to enable the test source.

    You can refer to Radar Interface control document in the MMWAVE-DFP for the details about these API's.

    Thanks,
    Raghu
