Expands Cloud Connectivity Options for Designs
with PSoC® 6 MCUs and Wireless Portfolio
Cypress Semiconductor Corp. (NASDAQ: CY), the embedded solutions
leader, announced today that it has expanded the cloud connectivity
offerings for its Internet of Things (IoT) solutions with AliOS
Things, Alibaba’s embedded IoT operating system. Developers can now
streamline connections to Alibaba Cloud, the cloud computing arm of
Alibaba Group, and design differentiated products with the flexible
computing and security features of Cypress’ programmable PSoC®
microcontrollers (MCUs) and the robust wireless connectivity of its
industry-leading Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth® portfolio for the IoT.

Cypress’ PSoC 6 MCUs have passed the advanced certification for
AliOS Things with Alibaba Cloud connectivity. PSoC 6 is
purpose-built for the IoT, providing the industry’s lowest power,
most flexible dual-core Arm® Cortex®-M4 and Cortex-M0+ MCU with
hardware-based security. These features deliver prolonged battery
life, robust processing and sensing, and protection of sensitive
user data. Cypress’ PSoC 4 MCUs have also passed the basic
certification for the AliOS Things operating system. Cypress
provides information on getting started with PSoC and AliOS Things,
including links to supporting AliOS software development files on
the Alibaba GitHub, at www.cypress.com/AliOSThings.
Cypress will demonstrate its PSoC 6 MCU running the AliOS Things
operating system and connecting to Alibaba Cloud at The Computing
Conference 2018 hosted by Alibaba Group in Hangzhou, China from
September 19-22.
“Cypress empowers customers to create winning IoT products with
our robust Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity solutions and flexible
PSoC MCUs, but supplementing these with a diverse partner ecosystem
is critical,” said Michael Hogan, senior vice president of the IoT
Compute and Wireless Business Unit at Cypress. “Collaborating with
Alibaba gives our customers a direct path to connect to Alibaba
Cloud and strengthens our ecosystem for China, making it easier for
developers to leverage the ultra-low power consumption and
integrated security of PSoC 6 and our best-in-class wireless
connectivity for the IoT.”
“Cypress is a key addition to our IoT ecosystem, which is built
as an open platform based on Alibaba Cloud and AliOS Things for all
semiconductor vendors,” said Wei Ku, General Manager of Alibaba’s
IoT Business Unit. “Cypress’ wireless solutions gives IoT
developers uninterrupted connectivity that can meet their
customers’ demands, along with access to Alibaba Cloud, while the
PSoC 6 MCU provides them with a reliable environment supported by
AliOS Things where developers can conduct secure data
processing.”
About PSoC 6
The PSoC 6 architecture is built on ultra-low-power 40-nm
process technology, and the MCUs feature low-power design
techniques that deliver industry-best active power to extend
battery life up to a full week for wearables. The dual-core Arm
Cortex-M4 and Cortex-M0+ architecture lets designers optimize for
power and performance simultaneously. With the dual cores and its
configurable memory and peripheral protection units, the PSoC 6 MCU
delivers the highest level of protection defined by the Platform
Security Architecture (PSA) from Arm. Designers can use the MCU’s
software-defined peripherals to create custom analog front-ends
(AFEs) or digital interfaces for innovative system components. The
MCU features the latest generation of Cypress’ industry-leading
CapSense® capacitive-sensing technology, enabling modern touch and
gesture-based interfaces that are robust and reliable. More
information on PSoC 6 is available at www.cypress.com/psoc6.
