CCS/AWR1642BOOST: Possible to view registers?

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1642

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello,

I am in the process of replicating the functionality of the DSP in MATLAB. I am currently using the DCA1000 to capture ADC raw data packets and then parse them with my MATLAB code and then compare my point cloud detections to the point cloud detections that the device transmits via UART. After implementation, I have noticed a small discrepancy between my point cloud outputs and that of the AWR1642's.

Would it be possible to view the memory register of the AWR1642 during different times in the DSP's execution? For example, if I wanted to compare the output of the 1D FFT of the AWR1642 and the output of the 1D FFT of my MATLAB code after say 1 chirp, would that be possible? 

I know in older versions of mmWave SDK, the capture demo could view and save the memory, but I am not sure how to extend this memory-access capability to mmWave SDK 1.2.

    Hi,

    In SDK 1.2 it is possible to configure the demo for . one frame (see frameCfg in SDK User's Guide).

    Then you can set a breakpoint in the SDK demo at the beginning of interframe processing. This will allow you to copy the radar cube and process it in matlab. On the target, you can step through the different processing chain steps and you can copy the different data buffers at different steps and compare with matlab.

    Thank you
