    Mechanical Mounting of PCB The field of view of the radar sensor is orthogonal to the PCB. The L-brackets provided with the AWR1443 and AWR1243 EVM kit, along with the screws and nuts help in the vertical mounting of the EVM.
  • Page 19: Pcb Storage And Handling Recommendations

    All ESD precautions must be taken while using and handling the EVM. Regulatory Information The AWR1443 and AWR1243 evaluation modules (AWR1443BOOST and AWR1243BOOST) are in compliance with Directive 2014/53/EU. The full text of TI's EU Declaration of Conformity is available here.
