mmWave SDK

The mmWave SDK has two broad components: the mmWave Suite and mmWave demos. The mmWave Suite is the foundational software part of the mmWave SDK, and includes smaller components:

  • Drivers
  • OSAL
  • mmWaveLink (BSS interface API)
  • mmWaveLib (C674x-optimized library)
  • mmWave API (high-level control API)
  • BSS firmware
  • Board setup and flash utilities

The mmWave SDK demos provide a suite of demonstrations that depict the various control and data processing aspects of an mmWave application. Data visualization of the demonstration's output on a PC is provided as part of these demonstrations.
