Cypress PSoC FirstTouch Starter Kit

Posted by Ken Cheung in EDA Tools on Sunday, October 28, 2007

Cypress Semiconductor's (NYSE:CY) PSoC(R) FirstTouch(TM) Starter Kit is a USB thumbdrive kit that provides a quick, easy, and affordable way for embedded designers to evaluate the integration, flexibility, and real mixed-signal programmability of PSoC mixed-signal arrays. Without writing or debugging a single line of C or Assembly code, the PSoC FirstTouch Starter Kit provides designers with CapSense touch, temperature, light and CapSense proximity sensing right out of the box. Users can also experiment with many more designs or build their own in minutes via PSoC Express.

The PSoC FirstTouch Starter Kit includes two small boards — a main system board that interfaces with a computer over USB, and a detachable multifunction expansion card. The expansion card includes inputs and outputs for the many applications supported by the kit. No other thumbdrive kit offers such an extensive array of applications.

The PSoC FirstTouch Starter Kit features include:

  • No code, no debugging PSoC Express–based design platform
  • Four embedded designs right out of the box
  • 16-pin connection interface to plug the malfunction expansion card into target boards
  • Pins accessible for user functions
  • Convenient, USB thumb drive format
  • I2C and ISSP support

The PSoC FirstTouch Starter Kit is available today. The kit is priced at US$29.95.
