This demo board features Infineon’s 60GHz XENSIV™ radar sensor BGT60LTR11AIP (configured in SPI mode). It consists of a Radar Baseboard MCU7 and a BGT60LTR11AIP shield (configured in SPI mode).
The BGT60LTR11AIP MMIC is a fully integrated microwave motion sensor including Antennas in Package (AIP), built-in motion and direction of motion detector and a state machine allowing fully autonomous operation of the MMIC without any external microcontroller. An integrated frequency divider with a Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) provides VCO frequency stabilization. These features make the small-sized radar solution a compelling, smart, and cost-effective replacement for conventional passive infrared (PIR) sensors in low-power or battery powered applications. The MMIC is designed to operate as a Doppler motion sensor in the 60GHz ISM-band.
