Asahi Kasei Microdevices AKD5818AiM-EZ-V Rapid Prototyping Kit

Asahi Kasei Microdevices AKD5818AiM-EZ-V Rapid Prototyping Kit is designed to evaluate the performance of the AK5818AIM millimeter-wave radar signal processing IC. This kit integrates an ESP32-P4 SoC with a dual-core RISC-V^® processor and an ESP32-C6-MINI-1 Wi-Fi^® 6 / Bluetooth^® 5 (LE) connectivity module. The AKD5818AiM-EZ-V kit offers 100BASE-TX Ethernet connectivity with an RJ45 connector and a USB Type-C connector for power supply and communication with the ESP32-P4. This kit features four RGB LEDs for visual feedback through the KTD2052B I²C LED driver and JST SH connectors for embedded use and debug. The JST SH 10-pin expansion connector provides a 5V power supply input, UART, I²C interface, and pins necessary for putting the ESP32-P4 into download mode.
