This kit has the following peripherals:
1. Power and Status LED: The amber power LED is turned on when the kit is connected to a power source. The green
status LED indicates the status of the
KitProg
.
2. USB Mini-B connector: The USB cable provided along with the PSoC 4 M-Series Pioneer Kit connects between this
connector and the PC.
3. Power Supply: The kit can operate at two voltage levels, 3.3 V and 5 V. The power selection jumper J9 is used to select
between the two voltage levels. The kit has an onboard 3.3-V Low Drop Out (LDO) regulator that converts the 5-V input
to 3.3 V.
4.
KitProg: The KitProg is a multi-functional system, which includes a programmer, debugger, USB-I2C bridge, and a
USB-UART bridge. Refer to the
KitProg User Guide
in the installation folder
<Install_Directory>\CY8CKIT-044
PSoC 4 M-Series Pioneer Kit\<version>\Documentation\KitProg_User_Guide.pdf
for more details
on the KitProg.
5. KitProg (PSoC 5LP) I/O Header: This header brings out a few Input/Output lines of the onboard PSoC 5LP device. This
includes the KitProg USB-I2C bridge lines and USB-UART bridge lines. The additional PSoC 5LP pins are direct
connections to the internal programmable analog logic of PSoC 5LP. You can use these pins as General-purpose
input/output (GPIO) also. For more details on the KitProg functionality, refer to the
KitProg User Guide
.
6. PSoC 4200M: This kit is designed to highlight the features of
PSoC 4200M
.
7. 10-pin programming header for PSoC 4200M: This header allows you to program/debug the PSoC 4200M using an
external programmer such as
MiniProg3
. PSoC 4 M-Series Pioneer Kit also has through-hole test points to allow you to
program and debug external PSoC 4 and PSoC 5LP devices using the KitProg. You must remove the zero-ohm
resistors R51, R53, and R55 to disconnect the connection between KitProg and the onboard PSoC 4200M device
before programming an external PSoC.
8. Digilent Pmod Peripheral Module compatible header: This header allows you to connect to the PSoC 4200 device to
Pmod Peripheral Modules though I2C and SPI interfaces.
9. Reset Button: This button is used to reset the PSoC 4200M device.
10. Arduino Uno Shield compatible power header: This header powers third-party party Arduino Shields. This header also
has a provision to power the PSoC 4 M-Series Pioneer Kit though the VIN input on the header.
11. RGB LED: The onboard RGB LED can be controlled from the PSoC 4200M device.
12. User Button: This button can be used to provide input to the PSoC 4200M. Note that the switch connects the PSoC
4200M pin to ground when pressed, so you need to configure the PSoC 4200M pin as resistive pull-up for detecting the
switch press.
13. Arduino Uno Shield compatible I/O headers: The PSoC 4 M-Series Pioneer Kit is compatible and operates flawlessly
with third-party Arduino Shields.
14. Raspberry Pi compatible header: A header which is compatible with Raspberry Pi Model B is included on the kit for
enabling advanced embedded systems. A Raspberry Pi can communicate to the PSoC 4200M device using I2C, SPI,
or UART communication protocols. One of the applications of this header is to enable the PSoC 4200M to act as an
analog input processor for Raspberry Pi. The PSoC 4200M, with its CapSense capability, can also enable user
interface functions such as gesture and proximity detection.
15. 3-Axis
Accelerometer:
This
kit
features
a
3-Axis
digital
accelerometer
device
from
Kionix
®
(KXTJ2-1009). The accelerometer is interfaced to the PSoC 4200M using the I2C protocol.
16. CapSense Proximity Headers: These headers are located on both sides of the CapSense Gesture Pad. They can be
used as individual proximity sensors or can be used together to detect CapSense proximity gestures. The example
project included with this kit demonstrates the detection of wave up and wave down proximity gestures. Remember to
connect wires into the proximity headers before using the proximity functionality. Note that if these inputs are not used
for proximity sensing, then the connectors and the associated I/Os are available for general-purpose use.
17. Current Measurement Jumper: This jumper can be used to measure the current consumed by the PSoC 4200M device
by connecting an ammeter between the pins 3 and 4 of the jumper. Remember to connect the jumper between pin 3
and pin 4 if the current measurement functionality is not used.
18. CapSense Gesture Pad: The CapSense Gesture Pad is a five-element CapSense peripheral specifically intended for
touch gesture recognition. This peripheral can be used to detect swipe left, swipe right, swipe up, swipe down,
clockwise swipe, and counter-clockwise swipe gestures.
Note
: The Gesture Pad can also be used as five individual capacitive touch buttons. The Gesture Pad is not intended
to be used as a radial slider.
