Typical device performance		Application benefit
Output	Raw ADC, range, angle	Flexible interface to connect to existing systems
Tuning range	76-81 GHz	Narrow beam to avoid clutter, smaller antenna and lenses
Range accuracy	<1 mm*	High accuracy range measurement for granular tank volume control
Chirp BW	4 GHz (5 GHz**)	Measure closer to the tank floor and ceiling
Power output	Up to 12dBm	Detect in small and large tanks with the same platform
Power consumption	<25 mJ/measurement***	4-20mA two-wire interface capable
MIMO	4RX x 3 TX + cascading	Accurate surface mapping for solid level sensing
* High-accuracy range measurements require high-accuracy algorithm and accurate mounting 5GHz chirp bandwidth requires bandwidth stitching of 4GHz and 1GHz chirps * low power measurement require turning the device off between measurements, see TI Design for more information
