Get PSoC®. Because change happens.
PSoC flexibility enables changes anytime: at concept, through
production, in the field. Specifications change constantly. Yet
pressures to differentiate, minimize costs, and speed time-to-market
remain the same. To stay ahead of the curve, you need flexibility,
programmability, and scalability. PSoC’s unique programmable
architecture delivers this and more. Futureproof your design; make
PSoC your agent of change.
PSoC delivers:
- The configurability of an FPGA, the mixed-signal integration of an ASIC, and the familiarity of an MCU.
- Reusable IP, compatible device families and variable resource options ensure you can optimize design efforts and accommodate changes.
- The industry’s first visual embedded design tool, PSoC Express™, speeds design time, enabling you to generate a complete design without writing a single line of code.

- PSoC includes programmable analog and digital blocks,
a fast MCU, flash and SRAM memory, all in a compact package (as small as 3mm x 3mm).

CY3210-MiniProg1
This inexpensive evaluation kit allows a user to program PSoC(R) devices via the MiniProg programming unit. A MiniEval PCB is also included in the kit. The MiniEval PCB is a programming and evaluation board that allows socket programming of DIP devices. The MiniEval also includes LEDs and a POT for simple evaluation and demonstration, but does not include a prototyping area. The MiniProg utilizes a 5-pin ISSP (In-System Serial Programming) header to program PSoC devices on the MiniEval PCB or directly on a target board. (To learn how to prepare your target board for ISSP, see Application Note AN2014 available at http://www.cypress.com.) The MiniProg is small, compact, and connects to the PC via a provided USB 2.0 Cable.
Kit Includes:
- MiniProg programming unit
- MiniEval socket programming and evaluation board
- 28-pin CY8C29466-24PXI PDIP PSoC device sample
- PSoC Designer Software CD
- Getting Started Guide
- USB 2.0 cable
Important Note
The CY32310-MiniProg1 is fully qualified for prototype and production programming; however, the small-format plastic enclosure was not designed to withstand the constant use often experienced on a manufacturing assembly line." Cypress recommends the CY3027ISSP as a more appropriate production programming solution.
CY3210-PSoCEval1
This PSoC Evaluation Kit features an evaluation board and MiniProg programming unit. The evaluation board includes an LCD module, Potentiometer, LEDs, and plenty of breadboarding space to meet all of your evaluation needs. The MiniProg programming unit is also included with the kit and will program PSoC devices directly on the evaluation board, or on other boards via a 5-pin header. This programming unit is small and compact, and connects to a PC via a provided USB 2.0 Cable.
Kit Includes:
- Evaluation board with LCD mdule
- MiniProg programming unit
- PSoC Designer Software CD
- 28-pin CY8C29466-24PXI PDIP PSoC device sample
- USB 2.0 cable
- Getting Started Guide
PSoC Express
PSoC Express™ is Cypress' visual embedded design tool for the PSoC (R) mixed-signal arrays - powerful programmable digital and analog blocks with integrated MCU and memory. It lets you design at the application level, with no C or assembly coding. With access to dozens of tested and verified device drivers, you can complete your design in hours or days instead of weeks or months.
PSoC Express 2.2 now supports designs with Cypress' best-in-class CapSense touch-sensitive interfaces including buttons and sliders as well as Cypress' WirelessUSB™ LP award-winning 2.4 GHz radio protocol featuring best-in-class interference immunity, superior for robust wireless connectivity in today's noisy home and enterprise environments.
Designing with PSoC Express is as easy as these four steps:
- Select inputs, outputs, interfaces
- Define output behavior
- Simulate design to verify
- Build design to target device
PSoC Express allows the user to create an entire PSoC project, verify it on their PC with the built-in simulator, and generate a schematic, Bill Of Materials, and project data sheet without digging into the messy internal details of a microcontroller." PSoC Express is the first tool to transport embedded system designers from concept to silicon in minutes. PSoC Express is available for download FREE OF CHARGE.

Embedded Change Just Happens
How many times have you said, "I would use an FPGA but I need analog, and I don't have the time or budget for an ASIC and, the project still has requirements that only a microcontroller can fill?" The product release date to production is in the next few weeks; marketing is still adding last minute "features," and engineering management has made a mandate to reduce the bill of materials. We've all experienced the above scenario in one way or another, usually because of last minute changes, marketing requirements, competitive pressures, or end-user focus groups.
