Introduction
Thank you for your interest in the CY8CPROTO-063-BLE PSoC 6 BLE Prototyping Board.
The CY8CPROTO-063-BLE PSoC 6 BLE Prototyping Board is designed as an easy-to-use and
inexpensive prototyping platform. The CY8CPROTO-063-BLE Prototyping Board includes the
CYBLE-416045-02 EZ-BLE™ Creator Module, delivering a complete system solution for a wide
range of embedded applications at a very low cost. PSoC 6 MCU is a programmable embedded
system-on chip, integrating custom digital peripheral functions, memory, and both an Arm
®
Cortex
®
-
M0+ CPU and Cortex-M4 CPU on a single chip with flexible automatic routing. Programmable digital
peripheral functions allow higher flexibility, in-field tuning of the design, and faster time-to-market. It
is a combination of MCU with standard communication and timing peripherals, and a capacitive
touch sensing system with best-in-class performance.
The CY8CPROTO-063-BLE PSoC BLE Prototyping Board offers an open footprint breakout board to
maximize the end utility of the PSoC 6 MCU with Bluetooth Low Energy Connectivity (PSoC 63 Line)
device. This kit provides a low-cost alternative to device samples while providing a platform to easily
develop and integrate the PSoC 6 MCU into your end-system. In addition, the board includes the
following features:
■
Two LEDs to provide feedback
■
A push button to provide a simple user input
■
Footprint for external ECO (2.0 mm × 1.6 mm, 24 MHz)
■
External WCO (32.768 kHz)
■
1.8 V to 3.3 V operation
The CY8CPROTO-063-BLE PSoC 6 BLE Prototyping Board also integrates Cypress KitProg2 that
enables onboard programming, debugging, and bridging functionalities, such as USB-UART and
USB-I2C. KitProg2 is used to program and debug the target PSoC 6 MCU which is part of the BLE
Module (see
). The Prototyping board allows you to separate the KitProg2 board from the
target PSoC 6 BLE board.
