Hi,

MiniProg3 does not support debugging for PSoC1(CY8C20234 is PSoC1 device) devices, furthermore, PSoC1 device does not support on chip debugging itself. To understand more about PSoC1 debugging you can refer to AN73212 - Debugging with PSoC® 1 (cypress.com)

Essentially, you will need build prototype board with a On-Chip-Debugger (OCD) device and In-Circuit Emulator(ICE).

PSoC1 devices are sort of old controllers, you may want to consider new PSoC family devices such as PSoC4 if you have a chance.

Thanks
