CAUTION HOT SURFACE
CONTACT MAY CAUSE BURN
DO NOT TOUCH
Note
RECOMMENDED DUTY CYCLE
: The IWR6843AOPEVM operates at a maximum duty cycle of 50%,
running at a higher duty cycle increases the risk of damaging the EVM by exceeding the maximum
operating junction temperature (T
j
) of 105°C.
6.1 Hardware
The IWR6843AOPEVM includes four receivers and three transmitter wide field of antennas on the package of
the device. The IWR6843 operates at 4-Ghz bandwidth from 60 to 64 GHz, with a maximum output power of 10
dBm; the IWR6843AOPEVM has an antenna gain of ~6 dBi.
Note
The IWR6843AOPEVM has been tested in the 60-64GHz band across the temperature range of -20°C
to 60°C.
Note
In accordance to the EN 62311 RF exposure test, a minimum separation distance of 20 centimeters
should be maintained between the user and the EVM during operation.
