IWR1443BOOST: can U12 temp sensor be removed?

Part Number: IWR1443BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH

Team, 

What is the purpose to put U12 temperature sensor on board, can my customer remove it?

Thanks

Viktorija

  • The temperature sensors are for auxiliary measurement of board temperature, and near PMIC / mmwave sensor temperature.
    These are not needed for mmwave functions.

    If you customer is planning on using Uniflash, Visualizer they either need to include the onboard XDS110 to USB, or make external connections through the XDS110 debug probe.

    If the customer chooses the passive connector to XDS110 debug probe, the 3.3v board power supply can be checked to see if it can be removed.
