1.1 Introduction

The AWR2944EVM and AWR2944PEVM are easy-to-use evaluation boards for the AWR294x mmWave sensing device, with direct connectivity to the DCA1000 EVM.This EVM kit contains everything needed to start developing software for the on-chip C66x DSP, ARM® Cortex®-R5F controller, and hardware accelerator (HWA 2.0). Also included is on-board emulation for programming and debugging as well as on-board buttons and LEDs for quick integration of a simple user interface.
