Infineon Technologies DEMOBGT60LTR11AIP Demo Board

Infineon Technologies DEMOBGT60LTR11AIP Demo Board features BGT60LTR11AIP 60GHz radar MMIC autonomous radar sensor. This microwave motion sensor includes Antennas in Package (AIP) as well as integrated detectors for motion and direction of motion. The DEMOBGT60LTR11AIP board incorporates the BGT60LTR11AIP shield and the Infineon Radar Baseboard MCU7 to evaluate BGT60LTR11AIP MMIC. This demo board mall-sized radar solution is a compelling, smart, and cost-effective replacement for conventional passive infrared (PIR) sensors in low-power or battery-powered applications. The DEMOBGT60LTR11AIP demo board operates at a 3.3V to 5V supply voltage range. Typical applications include smart home security, room air conditioners, contactless switches, drones, smart appliances, and smart homes.
