SparkFun Pulsed Radar Breakout A111

Description

• SparkFun Pulsed Radar Breakout A111
• Offers 60 GHz Pulsed Coherent Radar (PCR) sensor
• Designed to sit directly on top of a Raspberry Pi
• Comes complete with an integrated antenna
• On-board 1.8V voltage regulator
• Measurement distance: up to 2m

The SparkFun Pulsed Radar Breakout A111 is a single-chip solution for pulsed coherent radar (PCR) and comes complete with an integrated antenna and an SPI interface capable of clock speeds of up to 50 MHz.

It includes a 1.8 V regulator, voltage-level translation, and it breaks out all the pins of the pulsed radar sensor to both 0.1-inch and Raspberry Pi-friendly headers.

The Pulsed Radar Breakout is designed to sit directly on top of a Raspberry Pi but it doesn’t span all 40 (2×20) pins of a Raspberry Pi B+ (or later), but the 26-pin (2×13) header should be compatible with any Pi.
