Software Cypress’s PSoC Mixed Signal Array comes with Windows-based software and hardware design tools. Fast, efficient, prototyping and design for embedded systems is now a reality. PSoC software is available at no cost. Download at http://www.cypress.com, and the hardware tools that suit your design needs from evaluation to prototyping and emulation are discussed in the following sections: PSoC DesignerTM At the core of the PSoC development software suite is PSoC Designer.
PAGE 3
PSoC ExpressTM PSoC Express is the first visual embedded system design tool that allows a user to create an entire PSoC project and generate a schematic, BOM, and data sheet without writing a single line of code. A C Users work directly with application objects such as LEDs, switches, sensors, and fans. For more information and to download Express, please visit www.cypress.
PAGE 4
PSoC Programmer PSoC Programmer is a programming application that helps to deliver host-resident application code to the target via a hardware programming tool. Flexible enough to be used on the bench in development, yet suitable for factory programming, PSoC Programmer works as a standalone programming application or it can operate directly from PSoC DesignerTM or PSoC ExpressTM. PSoC Programmer is the one-stop programming application for Cypress PSoC development tools. http://www.cypress.

Hardware This section introduces the major categories of hardware Cypress offers for development with PSoC. The hardware development for Cypress PSoC falls into five major categories: Demo/Starter Kits, Evaluation Kits, Development Kits, Reference Design Kits, and Programming Kits. Cypress Semiconductor also offers individual Accessories/Kit Components: • Demo/Starter Kits: Proof-of-Concept demonstration of technology and potential application.
PAGE 6
Development and Programming Methods Currently there are four ways to program a PSoC: • Prototype programming • Full-featured in-circuit emulation • Production programming • Cypress factory programming for high volume orders** MiniProg PSoC Designer/Programmer Inexpensive Prototype Programming Full-Featured Emulation and Prototype Programming Production Programming PSoCEval1 or MiniEval Direct Connect USB Cable Target PCB with PSoC MiniProg USB Cable 5-pin header * ICE-Cube MiniEval USB Cable US
PAGE 7
In-Circuit Emulation with PSoC The In-circuit Emulator (ICE) is driven by the Debugger in PSoC DesignerTM. The software interface of the debugger allows the user to run, halt, and single-step the processor with the ICE. It also allows the user to set complex event points. Event points can start and stop the trace memory on the ICE, as well as break the program execution. The ICE can also serve as a single-site device programmer via an ISSP Cable and the MiniEval board included in the CY3215-DK kit.
PAGE 8
In-System Serial Programming The CY3207ISSP, ICE (CY3215-DK), and MiniProg1 (CY3210-MiniProg1) all allow easy In-System Serial Programming (ISSP). A cable is included in the ISSP Development Kit (CY3207ISSP.) All designers are encouraged to include ISSP capability on their printed circuit boards (PCBs.) ISSP is perfect for prototyping because it allows rapid reprogramming of the PSoC part mounted on the PCB and eliminates the need for multiple package-specific programmers.
PAGE 9
Prototyping Modules (CY3210-2xxxx) PSoC Prototyping Modules are 28-pin PDIP adapters that seamlessly connect any PSoC device package-type to the 28pin PDIP connector that is default on Cypress PSoC kits. Check the selection tables in the Kit Components and Accessories section of this document for a list of Prototyping Modules offered by Cypress. (Note: Prototyping Modules may sometimes be referred to as Evaluation PODs.
