4.2.7 UniFlash

UniFlash is a software tool for programming onboard flash on TI mmWave sensors. UniFlash provides both graphical and command-line interfaces. The UniFlash tool can be used to program the flash with the final app image.

TI Reference Collaterals

Note: TI supports multiple interfaces for flashing the onboard memory on a EVM. Interfaces like UART, JTAG, Ethernet and CAN are supported and TI also provides the tools to support the flashing. The path below in the SDK provides all the details and TI recommends to go through the contents to understand all the flashing utilities available form TI. The file path is provided with reference to AWR2944 device. Users can select the folder corresponding to the device as well. The tools usage remain the same.
