IWR1642: General questions for mmWave

Koichiro Tashiro

Part Number: IWR1642

Hi,

I have a customer who is interested in using mmWave.
They have some questions regarding mmWave usages inside home.

Q1) Is there any risk of pacemaker malfunction caused by mmWave ?

Q2) Any other cautions using mmWave inside home ?
For example, WiFi products have a list of cautions/notices about radio waves.

Thanks and regards,
KoT

Hello KoT,

As the regulations for emissions vary by governing agency, we advise to verify with relevant governing agency where you plan to deploy mmWave technology.

TI mmWave device data sheets include information on performance and emission of these devices. Please use this information to thoroughly evaluate and verify directly with regulatory body covering your specific application.

Thanks,
