Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR6843AOP
Hello,
When I cut the IWR6843AOPEVM Rev.F and executed "68xx AoP_ODS - Multiple Gesture and Motion Detection", the IWR6843AOP device case temperature was 112.5 [degC].
I'm afraid that the Tj = junction temperature violates the absolute maximum ratings, 105degC.
Then can I ask the followings?:
Q1.
Did you try the same test and measured such a high temperature? Or your result was something different ?
Q2.
If you agree the Tj violation, can I ask the heat is reasonable for the IC product ?
The part is small, very good, but it would be not easy to make a small form factor product.

Test detail
Hardware:
- IWR6843AOPEVM rev.F.
- The board was cut and the Mission AOP board side was used.

- Teraterm1: Hit [Enter], then receives "mmwDemo:/>" >>> Good.
- Teraterm2: Receives characters like "URURUR" >>> Good.
- (Wait for 30 minutes)
- Measure the temperature by an emission thermometer (Yokogawa 53007-J) >>> 112.5 [degC]
- Function check again:
- Teraterm1: Hit [Enter], then receives "mmwDemo:/>" >>> Good.
