PSoC™ 5, 3 & 1 Forum Discussions

Hi.

I have a project with 2 PSoC 5LP chips connected via SPI port. The one with SPI Master also has a UART port.

I'm trying to make a Bootloader on the Slave device (using the SPIS component), while the master serves as a UART-SPI bridge. I use the Bootloader Host utility, supplied with PSoC Creator, with a USB-UART converter. Don't have any success with that. The utility reports "Communication port reported error 'Unable to read data from the target device'", after making all kinds of tries...

Can the UART-SPI bridge affect the Bootloader Host - Slave device communication? It's supposed to be only a bridge...

Would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks.

Hi all,

first, I know this is not related to PSoC 5, but since there's no general 'small talk' section in the forum, I thought this is the best place...

I've recently looked into the PSoC roadmap and there are PSoC 6 & 7 devices announced - of course without details about peripherals, etc.

So, I want to start talking about what the community expects from those new devices. Please note, I'm not affiliated to Cypress in any way, I'm just a user of their devices. I ask just because of interest.

Here are some of my points:

    
• EMIF:     
        
  • capable of using SD-RAM and serial memory
        
  • capable of using more than 16MByte
        
  • no restrictions for bus width (e.g. currently using 16-bit memories can not handle 8-bit access)
        
  • 32-bit bus width
        
  • capable of serving different memory types simultanously
        
  • capable of generating chip-select signals for configurable memory address ranges
        
  • capable of using the address signals internally without routing them externally to GPIO input
        
  • automatic modification of linker script memory layout
       
    
• UDBs:     
        
  • more than six multiplexer inputs/outputs
        
  • even more features/flexibility for UDBs (e.g. not a accumulator/data register scheme, but a four/eight/sixteen register scheme + additional FIFO buffer where each register can be used for any function)
       
    
• Components:     
        
  • easier way to create customizers (would IMO help to create even more powerful user components)
       
    
• USB:     
        
  • HiSpeed
        
  • Host or OTG capability
       
    
• to be continued...
   

I know this is a huuuge christmas wishlist... 😉 I'm curious about your wishlist.

Regards,

Ralf

I've been looking at the forums and tried multiple examples Importing a CyComponentLibrary, to be able to add code which doesn't get removed each time by the default library when I build. And no, the available areas to add code are not on the places I need. So I need to overide the standard library component.

I found a Cypress Tutorial video that shows how to import, but then I get many errors of double references. That video also shows that these components get added in a MyComponents in the Component catalog, which I assume is a tutorial from an old version of creator. As I only get Yellow errors in the added component in the Cypress Component catalog. 

I then found an other tutorial that renames the imported component and updates all the namespaces in each of the component files. to avaoid double references. I did this, but 2 errors  I can't solve: 

M0123: The type or namespace name 'ArrayEditor" does not exists in the namespace 'SystemComponentModel.Design' in cycdc,cs and cyaudio2_0.cs from the USBFS component.

Can anyone help me how to properly import a component from the library. It should be something simple no? I understand why, but it's very annoying it updates automatically the components. There should be just an auto on/off setting on each component for advanced programming.

Hello Everyone

I have ported FreeRTOS on PSoC 5. Now I want to get hands on with the firmware of FreeRTOS, but all I have is a single LED on my PSoC 5 Prototype kit. Still I know I can do lot of things with that. My question is: What should be my approach to learn FreeRTOS with these resources?

Thanks in advance.

Hai cypress community.

Im still newbie in using psoc 5lp. i want to know is there has any ways to generate a vey low frequency waveform range from 0.01Hz to 10kHz.

TQ for your help.

Hello.Some examples of using an external rtc with I2C ?.

The RTC is DS1307.
