Abstract

This application note provides information on how to select the transmitter power backoff and the receiver gain setting in the xWRL6432AOP radar device based on the end application and use case to avoid the increased receiver noise figure and the risk of receiver ADC saturation, and correctly program them on TI’s xWRL6432AOP radar devices.
