SparkFun SEN-16826 Pulsed Radar Breakout - A111

SparkFun SEN-16826 Pulsed Radar Breakout - A111 is ideal for projects that require high-precision, cutting-edge distance measurement, speed motion detection up to 2m, and gesture sensing. This single-chip solution for PCR comes complete with an integrated antenna and an SPI interface that is capable of up to 50MHz clock speed. The breakout features a 1.8V regulator, voltage-level translation, and breaks out all the pins of the pulsed radar sensor to both 0.1-inch and Raspberry Pi-friendly headers. This breakout is designed to sit directly on top of a Raspberry Pi but only the 26-pin (2x13) header is compatible with any Pi.
