IWR1443BOOST: Reading the data without USB

Part Number: IWR1443BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR1642BOOST, IWR1443

Hello!

I would like to get the data of radar using a microcontroller. I know the EVM has a UART port but there is no data coming out of it. How can use the UART in the J6?

Hi,

The solution is listed in the following E2E thread (IWR1642BOOST and IWR1443BOOST EVMs have the same solution):

IWR1642BOOST: Reading the UART part without USB (e2e.ti.com/.../668271)

Hello John!

I followed the steps in the link that you give. I use the Serial debugging assistant to send and receive data. But I find the config data that pc receive is wrong. For example, I send the 'sensorStop\n' to the radar, but I receive the 'sensorStop'. If the data is correct, I should receive

'mmwDemo:/>sensorStop

Done

And when I use the XDS110, the data that received and transmitted is normal.

Can you give me some suggestion?

Regard

Hello!
I use a usb to TTL device connect the IWR1443, I connect the GND, TX and RX to the IWR1443 J6's GND, RX, TX. But there is nothing in the console of the mmwave demo visualizer. Why the question happened?
