PSoC boasts enhanced analog features

23 July 2008 Analogue, Mixed Signal, LSI

Cypress Semiconductor recently introduced a new PSoC (programmable system-on-chip) mixed-signal array with an enhanced analog-to-digital converter (ADC) for fast analog sampling and expanded 8 Kbytes of Flash memory capacity for complex algorithm processing.

The CY8C23x33, the newest member of Cypress's flagship PSoC family, targets applications with rich feature and software content, ranging from motor control, to camera image engines, to power line communications and more.

The PSoC mixed-signal architecture integrates programmable analog and digital blocks with an 8-bit microcontroller, a combination that offers designers high flexibility for a variety of applications. The new device features an 8-bit successive-approximation (SAR) ADC to allow a high sampling rate of 375 Ksps. It offers 26 GPIOs to deliver a premium level of configurability to quickly adapt to changes in feature requirements. The device is available in a 5 x 5 mm QFN package to minimise board space.

The CY8C23x33 features four digital blocks, including two basic and two communication blocks, and four analog blocks, including two continuous time and two switched capacitor blocks. One of the device's digital blocks is a dedicated hardware I2C block that enables fast and easy programmability to reduce design time.
