SWRZ090C January 2020 – October 2023 AWR2243
To designate the stages in the product development cycle, TI assigns prefixes to the part numbers of Radar / milli-meter Wave sensor devices. Each of the Radar devices has one of the two prefixes: XAx or AWR2x (for example: AWR2243APBGABLRQ1). These prefixes represent evolutionary stages of product development from engineering prototypes (XAx) through fully qualified production devices (AWR2x).
Device development evolutionary flow:
| XAx — | Experimental device that is not necessarily representative of the final device's electrical specifications and may not use production assembly flow. |
| AWR2x — | Production version of the silicon die that is fully qualified. |
XAx devices are shipped with the following disclaimer:
"Developmental product is intended for internal evaluation purposes."
Texas Instruments recommends that these devices not to be used in any production system as their expected end –use failure rate is still undefined.
