Cypress Semiconductor Corp. (NASDAQ:CY) today announced it will
showcase the ARM®-based PSoC® 5 programmable system-on-chip
architecture and PSoC Creator™ integrated development environment
(IDE) at the EE Times Virtual Conference entitled “Designing with
ARM: Engineer an Optimal ARM Based System.” Cypress will have
experts on the PSoC 5 and PSoC Creator offerings available for live
chat throughout the conference, and will also offer online training
and a wide range of informational resources. The virtual conference
takes place on March 25 from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. PDT.
Registration information and more details on the conference are
available at www.cypress.com/go/PSoC5ARMconf.
The PSoC 5 architecture integrates a 32-bit ARM Cortex™-M3 core
with high-precision programmable analog including 12-bit to 20-bit
ADCs, digital logic libraries full of dozens of drop-in
peripherals, best-in-class power management and rich connectivity
resources. The PSoC Creator IDE introduces a unique schematic-based
design methodology along with fully tested, pre-packaged analog and
digital peripherals easily customizable through user-intuitive
wizards and APIs to meet specific design requirements. More
information on the PSoC platform is available at
www.cypress.com/go/psoc.
“The Cypress booth at the ARM Virtual Conference offers rich
training and informational resources, along with live chat for
personalized learning,” said Ata Khan, Vice President of Technical
Staff at Cypress. “Engineers will learn how to quickly begin
designs in the PSoC Creator IDE that leverage the programmable,
high-precision analog and digital resources and the powerful 32-bit
ARM Cortex-M3 core in the PSoC 5 architecture.”
Khan will participate in a panel discussion entitled “New
Frontiers for ARM Cores: New Architectures, New Opportunities” from
1:00 to 2:00 p.m. PDT. The panelists will discuss what applications
the latest ARM chips make the most sense for, and what tools, tips
and techniques are available to help designers implement those
designs.
Four online training modules provide engineers with in-depth
training on the PSoC architecture, as well as the PSoC Creator
software design flow. These introductory training modules teach
engineers how to take advantage of the high-precision analog,
programmable digital and high-performance core and CPU subsystem
through a combination of lecture and hands-on labs. The modules
include:
- Introduction to the Architecture
and Design Flow
- Introduction to System
Resources
- Introduction to Digital
Peripherals
- Introduction to Analog
Peripherals.
Additional training resources include:
- The webinar “Introducing an
Evolutionary Leap in Embedded Design,” which explores how engineers
can overcome embedded design challenges with true system-level
programmability, as exemplified by the new PSoC platform.
- A “Fundamentals of Programmable
Analog” Course intended for designers looking to get up to speed on
the latest technologies available to allow them to quickly design
highly integrated systems for applications ranging from consumer
and automotive to medical and industrial.
- Registration for a half-day
workshop entitled “Introduction to PSoC 3 and PSoC 5,” which gives
hands-on experience using and developing PSoC 3 and PSoC 5
solutions utilizing the PSoC Creator IDE and the PSoC Development
Kit (CY8CKIT-001).
- A video entitled “Creating
Custom Components in PSoC Creator” that shows how to use the PSoC
Creator IDE to integrate custom components into a design.
The virtual booth includes a link to download the PSoC Creator
IDE for free. Additional resources for download include datasheets
for the four PSoC 5 families, a PSoC brochure, a PSoC Creator
product overview and a PSoC kits product overview.
About PSoC 3 and PSoC 5
The new PSoC 3 and PSoC 5 architectures include high-precision
programmable analog capability (up to 20-bit resolution for an
Analog to Digital Converter) and expanded programmable digital
resources integrated with powerful, industry-standard MCU cores and
ample memory and communications peripherals. The PSoC 3 devices are
based on a new, high-performance 8-bit 8051 processor, while the
PSoC 5 devices include a powerful 32-bit ARM Cortex™-M3 processor.
The new products provide designers with a seamless, programmable
design platform, enabling easy migration from 8 to 32 bits. The
robust features of these new solutions dramatically expand the
applications and markets that PSoC can address, including
automotive, portable medical, industrial and many more. More
