Does Infineon offer a breakout board to test CY15B102QN-50SXE?

If not, can either CY15FRAMKIT-001 or CY15FRAMKIT-002 be used to test CY15B102QN-50SXE either by simulating functionality with the chip installed on the kit or by replacing the SPI chip on the kit with a CY15B102QN-50SXE?

For CY15FRAMKIT-001, the FM25W256-G has a similar pinout to CY15B102QN-50SXE with the exception of the HOLD pin.

Does Infineon recommend using the CY15FRAMKIT-001 as a basis to test the CY15B102QN-50SXE after unsoldering the FM25W256-G and replacing it with a CY15B102QN-50SXE?

If the CY15FRAMKIT-002 is recommended as a basis...

It appears the CY15B102QN functionality can be observed in the CY15B104QSN on the CY15FRAMKIT-002 as long as additional features in the CY15B104QSN (extended, dual or quad SPI) aren’t used. Is it practical to simulate CY15B102QN functionality using the CY15B104QSN on the CY15FRAMKIT-002 or does Infineon recommend to replace the chip.

Hi Greg,

We would recommend you to use CY15FRAMKIT-002 Kit. Yes you can verify CY15B102QN functionality using the CY15B104QSN

CY15B104QSN is superset of CY15B102QN. The functionality of both chips are identical. To validate the CY15B102QN functionality, please operate the CY15B104QSN in SPI mode.

Let me know if you have further queries.

Thanks,

Girija
