Is the C1001 Radar Sensor Compatible with STM32 MCUs?
Jimmy.Hendrix 2024-11-21 11:53:56 384 Views4 Replies As the title says I am trying to interface with the c1001 radar on my STM32 MCU. I noticed all the guides use an ESP32 but I was trying to see if this is possible. I keep running into an error in my code when getting data from the radar and am beginning to wonder if this is because of the MCU that I am using. Thanks!
The C1001 is hardware compatible with the STM32 and both use uart TTL, although the C1001 requires a 5V supply.
DFRobot only provides Arduino library, usually you need to develop on ESP32 or Arduino.
If you need to develop on STM32 Cube or keil or other IDE, you can ask tech support for the C1001 communication manual.

Yeez_B Thank you for the response. I have a couple more clarifying questions if you can answer them. I am coding on VsCode using Platformio, which has an Arduino framework. The MCU I am using, the Swan by Blues, has Rx/Tx pins that are 3.3V tolerant. Since you mentioned uart TTL, is that potentially a reason that the code is not working from the github?
Also just to clear up any confusion, I am powering the C1001 using a different power supply and it is receiving the proper current and is operating at 5V. My question mainly lies with the Rx/Tx pins.
Are you able to confirm the 5V supply, C1001 and STM32 are Grounded?
Because UART communication needs the same reference ground.
