IWR6843ISK-ODS: Use CAN interface

Hello,

I know that there is AR SPRACG9 to implement CAN functionality for XWR14XX and XWR16XX but this does not seem to be suitable for IWR6843.

The MMWAVEICBOOST does have a CAN connector.

Whats the way to implement CAN for the IWR6843?

Best regards,

Christoph

Hi

Are you familiar with CAN interface? What do you plan to use on the host side?

Is your conclusion about the SPRACG9 not being suitable for IWR6843 based on the title of the AppNote or based on the content?

thank you
Cesar

No, its based on the fact that the content only includes pinmux for XWR14XX and XWR16XX, the can-driver only has tests for those chips and that there is no actual driver for the XWR68XX.

We are using quite a few ESP32 boards with CAN-interface to communicate already.
