Hi,

Would be great to see PSoC 4 & 6 series supported in Zephyr. Any chance this might happen?

PSoC 6 is supported with Zephyr.

When you go to the Zephyr website, PSoC 6 Pioneer kit is listed as a supported platform.

yes, but the support is very rudimentary, only one hard-coded uart, that's it, no other peripherals of the psoc6 is implemented.

what we need is full support for both cores, incl. USB, all SCB's (with device-tree), etc.

Yes, I spoke too soon.  We have no immediate plans for full Zephyr support.  It is an OS we are seriously considering.  We are in the process of determining where this falls in priority against other OS support for PSoC 6.   

Hi GaryS_06

It's been 6 months. Checking in and hoping for positive news that the PSoC 6 and 4L's will get full support in Zephyr.

Any update on full Zephyr support?

It will be interesting to have full support for Zephyr OS for all product lines as it is the leading RTOS currently and have all the latest technologies built in it. Including the Tensorflow micro for all AI support. 

Major companies are  adapting it  so the development phase of this will also be very fast. 

I agree - I have customers asking for Zephyr more and more.

Is there any timeline to support "https://zephyrproject.org/"  

Just asking so that we can plan the product selection accordingly.
