AWR1642BOOST: Peak Value Readings

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST

Hello,

I am currently working with the AWR1642Boost.  The radar is connected to a computer and communicating via serial connection.  I am parsing the data using C++ in Qt.  However, I cannot find any documentation listing what units the peak value is represented in or if they are represented in a Q-format.  I have analyzed the x, y, and z values using the correct Q-format and their values seem correct, so I believe that I am parsing the correct bytes for the peak values, however, I do not know how to "deal" with them without knowing units.

For example, the demo visualizer is giving peak values of around 70 - 110dB, while the parsed data in Qt is giving a wide range values from 25 - 3000 (units unknown).

Regards,

Franz
