AWR1642BOOST: AWR1642 BOOST .bin file

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1642

Hi there,

I understand that the AWR1642 Boost device saves data as a "dataOutputfromEVM*.bin" file. I can't seem to open or extract the file.

Is there any software that will support the .bin file or is there a way for me to view the results and data collected?

Thanks.

    Hi,

    If you used mmWave Demo Visualizer to save the .bin file, then the data is saved in the TLV format (en.wikipedia.org/.../Type-length-value)

    The exact format is documented in the mmWave SDK documentation available at the following location after installation (change the version number as appropriate): C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_02_00_00_04\packages\ti\demo\xwr16xx\mmw\docs\doxygen\html\index.html

    Please refer to the section "Output information sent to host" in the above link.


    There is no viewer available for viewing this data. You will need to write your own viewer.

    There is an unofficial python parser that can parse the bin file. It is available here: e2e.ti.com/.../TLV_5F00_Parser_5F00_script.zip

    Best Regards,
    Anand
