AWR1243: AWR1243:Consumption capacity of AWR 1243 has not changed.

Part Number: AWR1243

Dear TI support

I am using ARW1243 and TSW1400
I want to check that the Tx transmission signal (Frequency modulation:power, phase,chirp...) is exactly as in the design at sensorconfig by oscilloscope.
The measurement block diagram is described in fig1.
                         fig1
but when performing steps 1-7 (fig2), I find that the current consumed on the AWR1243 board has not changed.
it is only 0.22A / 5V,
It does not change andtoo low compared to the source of contstream CW signal when streamenable :0.8A-1.1A / 5V.
I think my measurement has a problem.
Or it changes so fast and I can't see it.
                            fig2

And when I want to measure and store (data: ***. bin) a signal (not a CW signal) in about 5-10min, how should I do it?
 Please show me how to do it right.
Thank you.

  • Hello Bui Giap,
    In he above configuration the device would transmit 8 frames and stop, after that the current would again come down. You can put the No. of frames as 0 to make it transmit infinite frames.

    Regarding the 5-10 mins of capture, you cannot use the TSW1400 for that. You would need to use the DCA1000 capture card for capturing long captures.
