2.7 On-Board Sensors

The AWR2944EVM/AWR2944PEVM provides access to an on-board temperature sensor (TMP112AQDRLRQ1) and four on-board current sensors (INA228AIDGST). These sensors can be controlled by the radar via I2C.

The current sensors are designed to measure the current being supplied to the various power rails of the xWRL6432AOP device. For details on the supply rails that can be measured using the current sensors, refer to Table 2-10.

U6 1.8V Supply REG_1V8
U7 3.3V Supply VCC_3V3
U8 1.2V Supply REG_1V2
U25 1.2V RF Supply REG_RF_1V2
