Recently I receive more components to plug in to the PSoC. Great you may say, and yes it is. Not too much time after I realized that I will be running out of ports to connect stuff to the PSoC4. Then I came across some documentation that said I can program the PSoC5 in the Pioneer kit and the process is explained very well in PSoC 4 Pioneer Kit Community Project#036 – What? I can use the PSoC 5LP too? . So I test it out and it works very well.
What to move to the PSoC5 ? Easy pick, I moved the SDCard management to the PSoC5 since there is a emfile tool already on the creator for the PSoC5.
I just tested it out and it works like a charm. Now I will be writing data to the SDCard and test out the communication between the PSoC4 and the PSoC5 to make them work together.
My design is changing a bit, now I will be using both PSoC's together to get the most out of the Pioneer Kit. Here is a picture of the basic connection.
It has just a few wrires (MISO, MOSI, SCK, CS) + power. This weekend I will be working more on it and will post updates as they are made.
