Introduction

The MMWAVE-DEVPACK is an add-on board used with TIs mmwave sensor EVMs (1243BOOST,
1443BOOST, and 1642BOOST) to provide more interfaces and PC connectivity to the mmwave sensor
EVM. It provides an interface for the Radar Studio tool to configure the Radar device and capture the raw
ADC data using a capture card, such as the TSW1400.
Key features:
• 120-pin connector to interface with the TSW1400 EVM.
• 20-pin LaunchPad connectors for all the digital controls from the Radar EVM.
• 60-pin high-density (HD) connector for the high-speed ADC data over CSI or LVDS interface and
emulator signals from the BoosterPack.
• Onboard FTDI chip to provide PC interface for SPI, GPIO controls, UART loggers.
• Powered over the micro USB connector.
• 60-pin MIPI connector for JTAG trace (for the 16xx device only).
• Header for DMM interface (for the 16xx device only).
• Second CAN connector (for the 16xx device only).
