Cypress Launches CY8C23533 and CY8C23433 PSoC Mixed Signal Array
Posted in PLD, FPGA, ASIC,..., SoCOn Thursday, May 15, 2008
Cypress introduced the CY8C23533 and CY8C23433 (CY8C23×33), new
PSoC mixed-signal
array devices with expanded 8 Kbytes of Flash memory and an enhanced ADC (Analog-to-Digital
Converter). The new PSoC devices are targeted to applications with rich
feature and software content, such as power-line communications, motor control,
camera image engines, etc.

About Cypress PSoC
PSoC (Programmable System on Chip) devices employ a highly configurable system-on-chip architecture for
embedded control design, offering a flash-based equivalent of a
field-programmable ASIC without lead-time or NRE penalties. PSoC devices
integrate configurable analog and digital circuits, controlled by an on-chip
microcontroller, providing both enhanced design revision capability and
component count savings. They include up to 32 Kbytes of Flash memory, 2 Kbytes
of SRAM, an 8×8 multiplier with 32-bit accumulator, power and sleep monitoring
circuits, and hardware I2C communications.
The flexible PSoC resources allow designers to future-proof their products by
enabling firmware-based changes during design, validation, production, and in
the field. The unique PSoC flexibility shortens design cycle time and allows for
late-breaking feature enhancements. All PSoC devices are also dynamically
reconfigurable, enabling designers to morph internal resources on-the-fly,
utilizing fewer components to perform a given task.
Easy to use development tools enable designers to select configurable library
elements for analog functions such as amplifiers, ADCs, DACs, filters and
comparators and digital functions such as timers, counters, PWMs, SPI and UARTs.
The PSoC family’s analog features include rail-to-rail inputs, programmable gain
amplifiers and up to 14-bit ADCs with exceptionally low noise, input leakage and
voltage offset.
A single PSoC device can integrate as many as 100 peripheral functions saving
customers design time, board space and power consumption while improving system
quality. Customers can save as much as $10 in system costs. More information
about PSoC products is available at www.cypress.com/psoc and free online
training is at www.cypress.com/psoctraining.
The PSoC mixed-signal architecture offers designers flexibility for a variety
of applications, since it integrates programmable analog and digital blocks with
an 8-bit microcontroller. The new CY8C23×33 device
features an 8-bit successive-approximation (SAR) ADC to allow a high sampling
rate of 375 Ksps. It offers 26 GPIOs to deliver a premium level of
configurability to quickly adapt to changes in feature requirements.
The CY8C23×33 PSoC devices feature four digital blocks, including two basic
and two communication blocks, and four analog blocks, including two continuous
time and two switched capacitor blocks. One of the device’s digital blocks is a
dedicated hardware I2C block that enables fast and easy programmability to
reduce design time.
CY8C23533 and CY8C23433 PSoC chips are available now. The CY8C23533 is
available in a 32-pin 5×5 mm QFN package and the CY8C23433 is available in a
28-pin SSOP package.
