AWR2243BOOST: How to use JSON file for extracting ADC data

Part Number: AWR2243BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DCA1000EVM

Hi,

I am able to use the AWR2243BOOST with DCA1000EVM.

I am trying to extract the raw ADC data but I really don't understand the way to use the JSON files.

Should I just follow the instructions given on page 49 of mmwave_studio_user_guide.pdf?

Will it do all the connections, RF power up, static setup, LDO setup and all?

What sequence should I follow for using the JSON files.

Should I do the connections according to page 19 to 25 and then follow what is mentioned on page 49 or should I start directly at page 49?

I am a little confused.

I would really like to understand what to do.

Regards,

Swaroop

Hi,

I would request you to answer my question. I had gone through a lot of e2e queries before I wrote this question.

It is not that I did not find any related e2e posts but I am just confused.

Swaroop,

JSON files are not used for extracting raw ADC values. The JSON file is used to configure the the AWR2243BOOST when using the CLI tool.

mmWave Studio for AWR2243BOOST includes a example MATLAB file for parsing the output. You can find it at this file location:
