AWR1642: AWR1642 ES2.0 board serial port issue.

Part Number: AWR1642

Hi,

Till date we are using following board(oldboard.jpg :first picture) and "mmwave_sdk_01_01_00_02".we have ti code and on top of it our changes (developed and tested).we want to flash same binary into two other AWR1642 boards.

we ordered two new boards.but it seems the labels are different(newboard.jpg :second picture) ES2.0.we flashed "xwr16xx_srr_ti_design.bin" and flash is successful but when we run "C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_01_01_00_02\packages\ti\demo\xwr16xx\srr\gui\SRRvisualization\Executable" srr_visualization.exe ,it says could not open serial port .

Do we need to migrate to new sdk and new tools? import our old code into new sdk?

precisely old board is with label AWR1642BOOST  and new board has label XA1642ABSABL ES2.0 label.could you guide us.

Thanks,

P Tulasi Krishna. 

  • If you have migrated to the latest ES 2.0 silicon, then you need to use SDK version 2.0.0.4 as this is the only compatible version. You can also download the latest automotive toolbox from dev.ti.com as the labs that are included there are based off of SDK 2.0.0.4 and therefore are compatible with ES 2.0 silicon.

    Please reply if you have any additional questions.
