Infineon Technologies DEMO BGT60LTR11AIP evaluation kit

The BGT60LTR11AIP is a fully integrated microwave motion sensor including Antennas in Package (AIP) as well as built-in motion and direction of motion detectors. A state machine enables the operation of the device without any external microcontroller. In this autonomous mode, it detects a human target up to 5 m with a low power consumption of less than 5 mW. These features make the small-sized radar solution a compelling smart and cost-effective replacement for conventional PIR sensors in low power or battery-powered applications.
