Features


· Suitable for 2D motion detection

    -  Integrated with 1×4 linear array receiving antenna to detect multiple moving objects' orientation, speed and distance simultaneously

    -  High precision linear chirp FMCW radar

    -  Sensing area: up to 10m (* 1), 120 degree (* 1) angle

· Highly integrated device for easy hardware design

    -  Integrated with antenna, radio, ADC, FIFO and SPI interfaces

    -  Ability to use a reasonable PCB, less BOM, and easy assembly

    -  Small package (9.0mm x 9.0mm, BGA package)

· Low power consumption

    -  4-stage operation (power off, deep sleep, light sleep, induction)

    -  Intelligent power control sequencer, flexible duty cycle operation

    -  Average power consumption at 2D position sensing is 1mW (* 2)

 

        *1:Depends on sensor configuration and environmental conditions

        *2: Test results based on Socionext assumptions
