Hi Arun,
On EVM UART is available through XDS110 emulator to PC as a COM port, so with that you can run your application on PC to send/recieve data to device.
In case you need to connect some external processor/MCU to AWR1642BOOST then you can connect to UART using wire over J5[9 AR_MSS_LOGGER]/J6[5,7 AR_RS232Tx/Rx] connector. In this case you need to solder 0ohm resistor to these points. Please follow AWR1642BOOST schematic for more info.

Yes, you can use. In that case you need to use required seriel terminal application to connect to these COM port.
