AWR1642BOOST: Dynamic Power Save mode

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST

Hi, 

I found this message in the Radar Control Interface document. I have added the message to mmw demo and see the setting the command returning success. We start radar using mmw demo GUI  but we don't see any change in term of  power.  I send this command before calling mmwave_start().  I am asking why this command doesn't take effect, is a special FW required?

Best Regards,

Xlin 

  • Hi Xlin,

    Dynamic Power Saving is enabled by default. So there would be no change in power unless you disable the power saving.

    Also, please note that dynamic power saving only takes effect if the inter-chirp idle time is greater than 10 us.

    Best Regards,
