Here is some information and documentation on the BoSL Radar Velocity sensor distance test article.
Set-up
The sensor should already have the firmware pre-loaded onto the XM132 and ATmega. Loaded onto the ATmega is a small program which enables power on the XM132. The XM132 has the Acconeer XM132 Module Software version 2.8.2 available on the Acconeer developer website. We recommend using the Acconeer portable exploration tool available here to interface the sensor with a computer via rapid prototyping.
Wiring
To connect the sensor to a USB-TTL converter please follow the wiring diagram below:
| USB-TTL | Radar Sensor |
|---|---|
| 3.3 V | Green |
| GND | Half Green |
| reset | Orange |
| wake | Half Orange |
| TX | Brown |
| RX | Blue |
| TX2 | Half Brown |
| RX2 | Half Blue |
