We are all aware of AVR, PIC, ARM, and ESPS which are widely used in embedded systems. Besides, there is one new and feature-rich IoT-enabled embedded platform, the PSoC 6 WI-Fi-BT Pioneer Kit that ...(read more)

PSoC 4 BLE Pioneer Kit Workshop

2015-03-13T10:55:05Z

I attended a workshop on the PSoC 4 Bluetooth Low Energy Pioneer Kit, presented by Cypress Semiconductor and hosted by Future Electronics. It was after reading about it on the element14 community site (Thanks clem57) that I checked if a workshop was ...(read more)

PSoC 4 Prototyping Kit on OSX (or Linux) with VirtualBox

2014-11-30T13:22:13Z

Introduction Gurinder Singh Gill has started a blog series on the PSoC 4 Prototyping Kit (CY8CKIT-049-42xx) from Cypress. The fact that the software required to program the kit runs on Windows only, has held me back from using it.But, as I ...(read more)

My own PSOC project

2014-03-17T09:07:25Z

I've made several posts in the PSOC Smarter Life Challenge, but never used the PSOC in my own designs. After I've seen the possibilities in the challenge, I came across a project at my work where I realized that PSOC could be a nice solution.We're us...(read more)

Low Cost DAC Boosts PSoC Amp Performance by Over 30dB

2014-02-12T21:13:20Z

In this blog we will look at how to improve the performance of the Cypress ADC_Differentaial_Preamplifier Starter Design included with PSoC Creator 3. With a simple addition the common mode performance of the circuit can be improved by 30dB using ine...(read more)

54 professors from 29 PSoC labs in China joined 2013 annual PSoC professor conference in Shanghai Jiaotong University on Dec. 1st, 2013. 4 professors gave PSoC4 lectures to share their teaching and research experience in PSoC4. I attached the present...(read more)

Using a Cypress PSoC5 to Sniff Out PCB Shorts

2013-10-08T04:03:53Z

Tracking down and finding short circuits on a PCB can always be a challenge. The resistance can be down to micro-Ohms. Not every meter can measure that low and the meters that can measure micro-Ohms are very costly and you still have to deal with noi...(read more)

PWM Controled by on board Capacitive Slider

2013-07-30T21:01:39Z

From what I have used this for the thing that sold me the most about using this more in the future is the ease of using the PSoC Creator. It reminded me a lot of simulator software I used in school. I decided to start with Project 2 CapSense Sli...(read more)

Two LEDs flashing using only hardware components of the PSoC

2013-07-26T13:05:16Z

Hello everybody, It took me some hours of fun making this simple project. It turned out - after understanding the PSoC - that both the PSoC Creator the Pioneer board are easy to use and offer great flexibility - as they claim. The pro...(read more)

第一次尝试.........

2013-05-30T23:44:06Z

大家好: 操作系统: Window 7 首次用 PSoC Creator打开一个从 element14社区下载的 “闪烁的LED项目”. 大致来讲，你可以用这个电路板来编C++ 程序. 我还没有进一步研究它还可以支持什么程序语言. 留待下次吧。当你运行脉宽调制调试模式时, 编好的程序会把LED的闪烁时间更新在16位记数器内。而你可以把LED闪烁的时间加长或缩短。这个程序有一个好处就是清楚的显示记数器地址方便你做进一步的调试。一开始的时候，我有一些混...(read more)

My First Project Review.........

2013-05-30T23:31:53Z

Hello Everybody: I download the software under window 7 and it was simple enough. Steps were clear. I used the link without the download manager. You can use the download manager but I did not use it. It’s simpler to just downl...(read more)
