Abstract

This document was translated from a simplified Chinese source. (ZHCAFE5)

TI’s mmWave radar chip builds a highly collaborative computing architecture by integrating an MCU, DSP, and hardware accelerator (HWA). Such an architecture significantly reduces the computational burden on the MCU and DSP while increasing overall system efficiency and flexibility. Flexibility and full utilization of the HWA are key to improving system efficiency. This article will explore how to achieve comprehensive improvements in system performance by efficiently leveraging the MCU, DSP, and HWA in terms of system design, parallel computing, and programming optimization.
