Infineon Technologies Distance2Go Development Kit

Infineon Technologies Distance2Go Development Kit utilizes the BGT24MTR11 RF transceiver and XMC4200 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M4 MCU series. This kit enables users to implement and test several sensing applications at the 24GHz ISM band, such as FMCW distance measurement, Doppler-based movement detection, Doppler-based direction of movement detection, and Doppler-based speed measurements of targets. The Distance2Go kit is preprogrammed using Infineon's DAVE™ development tool and consists of the BGT24MTR11 transceiver MMIC and the XMC4200 for signal processing and communication via USB.

Features

  • Capability to detect distance of multiple targets and to detect motion, speed, and direction of movement (approaching or retreating)
  • BGT24MTR11 24GHz highly integrated RF MMIC
  • XMC4200 Arm Cortex-M4 32-bit industrial microcontroller
  • Debug over Cortex 10-pin debug connector
