DMW1001C development

Wireless Connectivity Ultra-Wideband

Hi,

I am new here and I just received the development kit.
I am trying to build a device that can have UWB and use BLE to send data. I have some experience coding nrf52832 but I am new to UWB. I wonder what I should start with. By looking into the documents, I found two example projects, the example on github:GitHub - Decawave/dwm1001-examples: Simple C examples for Decawave DWM1001 hardware, and the DWM_1001_on_board_package which is mentioned in the API Firmware User Manual.
What are the differences between these two projects? What do you recommend me to look into first?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @xx11
the github repositories are bare code examples. The “API Firmware User Manual” is for PANS firmware which is all in one RTLS (closed source) solution .

Thanks for your reply. If I want to build my own firmware to run on the DWM1001C, which example do you recommend me to start with? The twr example or the dwm_simple, or any other examples?

Hi @xx11
the MDEK samples are meant to be used with PANS firmware including the dwm-simple code.

Check this thread: Dwm1001c code development there some links to code samples.
