AWR1243BOOST: A question about the TX number fo theAWR1243 chirp

Part Number: AWR1243BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1243,

Now，I find the AWR1243 chirp can be used to design the imaging radar and automobile radar. Why not TI designs two chips for different purposes?

The radar miniaturization is the development trend, but using multiple chirps to design the imaging radar is confused.

So,I wonder that the AWR1243 cascade for imaging radar is the only solution or not.

Why not design a mmwave radar chip with many antennas?

Looking forward to your reply, which is helpful for me to understand the mmwave radar of TI.

Hi,

There are many consideration in designing a mmwave solution: performance, cost, power ...

These are some of the considerations our design team has to take into account to design the chips

thank you

Thank you for your reply.

Can you explain the many consideration like cost and power in detail？

I have bought the AWR1243BOOST to test its performance, and I want to indicate that the chip specification is optimal in my paper.

But I don't know how to describe it. Can you give me some advices?

Hi,

Unfortunately our support team can only support specific questions.

We can't provide additional information on the design choices made in developing these chips.

We recommend you read the white papers available on our mmwave overview page. Please look at the Automotive Applications Front Long Range Radar

Thank you

Cesar
