NDTH7-JDM44CJ02-Y is an 80 GHz radar level sensor module that covers the full 76–81 GHz band, for non-contact distance and liquid or solid level measurement work in tanks, silos, sumps, and open channels. Kymopsis sells this SKU as a development kit for product developers, software developers, and system integrators. It is not sold as a finished level transmitter.
Editions
- Development kit (USD 59): the board plus a configuration GUI, application firmware builds, a flashing guide, and light engineering changes for your setup.
- DIY board (USD 19): the bare board pre-flashed with the application firmware, with UART interface notes (output format and basic commands) provided after purchase. No GUI, no tools, and no engineering support.
Neither edition includes embedded firmware or GUI source code.

Regulatory status
This module is not FCC certified. It is not an authorized transmitter for unrestricted installation or operation. This page is not an FCC Grant, not a CE declaration, and not a finding that an evaluation-kit exemption has been met.
If your finished product needs its own FCC equipment authorization, use the B2B program. Kymopsis can scope that custom integration and support the laboratory and TCB process. Kymopsis does not issue FCC grants.
Supplier datasheet figures
The figures below come from the supplier introduction for NDTH7-JDM44CJ02-Y. They are not a Kymopsis lab report.
- Carrier: 76–81 GHz

- Stated blind zone: 6 cm
- Stated accuracy: ±1 mm
- Stated response: 200 ms
- Stated −3 dB beam: 100° horizontal, 80° elevation
- Supply: 3.1–3.5 V, typical 3.3 V; typical current 135 mA, maximum 600 mA; ripple ≤ 50 mV; supply capability ≥ 1 A
- Stated operating temperature: −40 °C to 85 °C
- Interfaces named in the datasheet: UART (UART0 default, 115200 baud, distance and FFT output), SPI, I2C
- Stated memory: 1 MB flash and 192 KB SRAM
- Analog input AIO1: do not exceed 1.35 V
What the photographs show
The cover photograph is the bare PCB, antenna side. The silkscreen on that board reads ADTH3102JDM44 YW01 V1.0-230509. The SoC package in the photo is marked Andar ADT3102. The datasheet model and the PCB marking are both printed on the materials supplied with this listing.
Gallery photographs show the same module family with a pale radome, front and connector side. The USB debug interface board NDTE260300XXNA01 is a separate item and is not included in this kit.
Integration notes from the same datasheet
- Two 3.3 V inputs are named J2 and J3.
- Suggested install for a level measurement: above the target, centered, antenna parallel to the surface.
- Range depends on lens, target size, and the scene.
Why a radome, lens, or horn antenna matters in a tank
The bare board has a wide beam (stated −3 dB 100° horizontal, 80° elevation). Inside a tank or silo, a wide beam also lights up the walls, ladders, agitators, inlets, and weld seams, and those reflections can show up as false echoes (multipath). Narrowing the beam with a lens or a horn antenna puts more of the energy on the product surface and less on the structure around it, and the datasheet states that longer range (up to 30 m) needs a lens. The radome protects the antenna side from dust and condensation. A horn-antenna version is planned; ask through B2B if you need it now.
Questions
Is this module FCC or CE certified?
No. It is not FCC certified, and this page does not claim CE certification. It is sold as a development kit for engineers and integrators, not as an authorized end product.
Who is it for?
Product developers, software developers, and system integrators who are evaluating the module. It is not a finished level-meter appliance.
Can Kymopsis support FCC authorization for a finished product?
Yes, as a separate B2B custom program: integration scope plus laboratory and TCB work. That work is not included in this kit.
