What is the LD1125H?

The LD1125H is a FMCW 24GHz radar manufactured by the Chinese company Hi-Link.

It's main components consists of the

The GD32 creates the VCO ramp using its DAC and receives the down-mixed echo signal back into a ADC channel.

For signal analysis the device does NOT offer full access to I/Q of the echo/bang signal as only one of both is connected to the ADC of the microcontroller.

Datasheets for the Radar IC

There aren't much datasheets around for the Radar IC. But it seems to be purely analog with some downmixing and VCO functionality.

These might be close to one we are looking for:

Also ham radio operator IK1ZYW played around with it here. According to his research it's a clone of the Infineon BGT24LTR11N16. Very untypical for Infineon they are giving us a metry ton of very high quality datasheets and application notes on their product website without having us seeling our soul to a NDA.

Info : auto-selecting first available session transport "hla_swd". To override use 'transport select <transport>'.
Info : The selected transport took over low-level target control. The results might differ compared to plain JTAG/SWD
Info : DEPRECATED target event trace-config; use TPIU events {pre,post}-{enable,disable}
Info : Listening on port 6666 for tcl connections
Info : Listening on port 4444 for telnet connections
Info : clock speed 1000 kHz
Info : STLINK V2J23S0 (API v2) VID:PID 0483:3748
Info : Target voltage: 2.936993
Info : [gd32f3x.cpu] Cortex-M4 r0p1 processor detected
Info : [gd32f3x.cpu] target has 6 breakpoints, 4 watchpoints
Info : starting gdb server for gd32f3x.cpu on 3333
Info : Listening on port 3333 for gdb connections
Info : accepting 'telnet' connection on tcp/4444

Looks good.

Feeding it into Ghdira

A fitting SVD for the SVD-Import plugin can be found the gd32-rust website. After setting the base address to 0x08000000 and the CPU type to CORTEX it worked out of the box.

Following memory map seems to work

Voila. Almost clean assembler code. Even the Decompiler seems to do its job more (or less).
