3.1.1 Hardware

The AWRL1432BOOST-BSD core design includes:

  • AWRL1432 device: a single-chip, low-power 77GHz radar device with an integrated Arm-Cortex M4F and HWA
  • Power optimized discrete DCDC power management
  • The EVM also hosts a device to assist with onboard emulation and UART emulation over a USB link with the PC.
