1.1 Introduction

The xWRL1432 mmWave Sensor device is an integrated single chip mmWave sensor based on FMCW radar technology. The device operates in the 76GHz to 81GHz band. The xWRL1432 is designed for low power, self-monitored, ultra-accurate radar systems in the Automotive and Industrial space of applications. The xWRL1432BOOST EVM enables access to point-cloud data and power over USB interface. The xWRL1432BOOST EVM supports direct connectivity to the DCA1000EVM development kit. The xWRL1432BOOST EVM is supported by mmWave tools, demos and software including mmWave software development kit (MMWAVE-L-SDK) and TI's Code Composer Studio™. DCA1000EVM enables access to the raw ADC data capture of the sensor. The onboard XDS110 enables software development and debugging through TI’s CCS. xWRL1432BOOST can interface with the MCU LaunchPad™ development kit ecosystem.
