 Have you heard of Arduino ? I am sure you would have come across Arduino atleast once. Let me briefly tell you about Arduino. It is a platform which is considered to be the easiest embedded platform to work with. Programming an Arduino is child's play. The Arduino community makes what is called Arduino shield which can sit on top of any Arduino board and provide additional functionality such as XBEE, WIFI, Ethernet and so on.

A team at Michigan State University has now put together a PSoC5 board which will work with Arduino shield. The overall goal of this project is to have PSoC 5 be “Arduino-friendly”. In other words, one of the team at MSU is trying to have Arduino users purchase PSoC products. The overall goal of this project is to have a design that will prevent any technical difficulty when interacting Arduino shields with PSoC 5.

Is possible to create a can bus communication project to CY8CKIT-003?

is there a sample?

Thank you

On module Counter_2_20 I get this warning:

" Error processing element 'register'. error at line 262: invalid address"

Should I be worried.

Thanks,

Phil

The above document is a must read for PCB designers.

Hallo all,

I am new to Cypress devices, and I am about to start a new design for a USB-MIDI device; which controller would you suggest? I see PSoC3 and -5 have USB-MIDI components in the Creator, but they are overspecified (and overpriced as well) for my application (I need 4 to 8 ADCs and a USB connection). Is there any USB-MIDI support for enCoRe controllers?

Thanks

Fabrizio

Hello Everyone,

Frequency measurements are a common requirement of many applications.

AN2283 - PSoC® 1 Sensing - Measuring Frequency gives a good overview of the many methods that can be used along with their relative error in measurement.

The sample project in the above link, provides an example implementation that is accurate to 0.0016% (16 ppm).

Hi,

This is for those who are facing an issue in installation of PSoC Designer 5.1 SP 2, where the installation hangs and does not complete. It issue has been faced by some users using Windows 7, Vista, XP. This is due to a Microsoft Installer Bug. This message is seen in  the PSoC Designer 5.1 SP 2 download page ( http://www.cypress.com/?rID=41083) also.

 So presently Cypress has provided a workaround by releasing an Emergency Patch. This can be downloaded at:

http://www.cypress.com/?rID=53393

Please use this only if you face problems with the normal version.

Regards,
