IWR6843ISK-ODS: Which vision of IWR6843ISK-ODS has been deprecated?

Hello user5903056,

   Yes IWR6843ISK-ODS ES2.0 would be supported to run the TI resource explorer demo applications.

New EVMs provides additional features, IWR6843ISK-ODS new revision adds additional features just like as IWR6843ISK Rev C version (Stand alone mode of operation, USB powered, Direct connection to DCA1000) but different Antenna configuration.  

For the EVM revision you could check the revision numbers imprinted on the PCB. 

For the device revision you need to refer to the Silicon Errata which provides identifier to distinguish between ES1.0 and ES2.0 variants. 

Thanks and regards,

Jie,

    Deprecated means on ti estore we will sell only newer version of the EVMs (i.e. Standalone configuration).  Older EVM still will be able to run the current SDK and mmWave studios and applicable toolbox demos. 

Your EVM IWR6843ISK-ODS Rev.A ES2.0 still is the latest, Rev B has not been released yet. Even after the release IWR6843ISK-ODS Rev.A EVMs would support current SDK and toolbox demos. 

Recently IWR6843 ES2.0 has been qualified for high volume production, Hence on the newer EVM ES2.0 symbol marking would be different to reflect that. For the Symbolization marketing you could refer to device errata. https://www.ti.com/lit/er/swrz087b/swrz087b.pdf 

However both the devices are same i.e. ES2.0 silicon, Hence there is no difference in the device performance. 

Thanks and regards,

Jie,

I have responded to your query in the below thread.

It's not good practice to open multiple threads for same questions. Hence closing this thread. 

Thanks and regards,
