1 Abstract

The xWRL6432BOOST from Texas Instruments is an easy-to-use low cost FR4-based evaluation board for the xWRL6432 mmWave sensing device, with standalone operation and direct connectivity to the DCA1000EVM for raw ADC capture and signal processing development. This EVM contains everything required to start developing software for on-chip Hardware accelerator and low power ARM Cortex® M4F controllers.
