Signal Descriptions - Digital

Note: All digital IO pins of the device (except NERROR_OUT and WARM_RESET) are non-failsafe; hence, care needs to be taken that they are not driven externally without the VIO supply being present to the device.
Note: The GPIO state during the power supply ramp is not ensured. In case the GPIO is used in the application where the state of the GPIO is critical, even when NRESET is low , a tri-state buffer should be used to isolate the GPIO output from the radar device and a pull resister used to define the required state in the application. The NRESET signal to the radar device could be used to control the output enable (OE) of the tri-state buffer.

Sense On powerSOP[0]IThe SOP pins are driven externally (weak drive) and the mmWave device senses the state of these pins during bootup to decide the bootup mode. After boot the same pins have other functionality.
  • [SOP2 SOP1 SOP0] = [0 0 1] -> Functional QSPI load mode
  • [SOP2 SOP1 SOP0] = [1 0 1] -> UART load mode
  • [SOP2 SOP1 SOP0] = [0 1 1] -> debug and development mode
  • [SOP2 SOP1 SOP0] = [1 1 0] -> JTAG load mode for customer key provisioning
The following configurations of SOP pins help decide the reference crystal frequency
  • [SOP4 SOP3] = [0 0] -> 40 MHz
  • [SOP4 SOP3] = [1 1] -> 50 MHz
