Example Projects
This combination of hardware elements enables designers to rapidly prototype thermal management
solutions in a variety of configurations.
The TME EBK also provides an I2C/SMBus/PMBus compatible header to support systems that
require communication with a host controller. This functionality is implemented in a single PSoC 3.
The TME EBK routes the input/output signals for thermal management to a PSoC 3 mounted on a
development kit platform such as the CY8CKIT-001 or CY8CKIT-030. PSoC 3 is not mounted on the
TME EBK.
The CY8CKIT-036 TME EBK has three example projects that demonstrate firmware-based fan con-
trol, hardware-based closed-loop fan control, and a thermal management system. A detailed expla-
nation of the TME EBK and the firmware examples that are provided with the kit are available at

Using TME EBK with CY8CKIT-025
You can control the fans in the TME EBK using the temperature sensors in the CY8CKIT-025 EBK.
The TME EBK has only one analog temperature sensor, which is the diode-based temperature sen-
sor. To illustrate the analog temperature sensing capabilities of PSoC 3 better, the CY8CKIT-025
EBK is combined with the TME EBK to demonstrate thermal management using different analog
temperature sensors such as diode and RTD.

030 PSoC 3 DVK. The CY8CKIT-025 EBK is connected to port E and the CY8CKIT-036 TME EBK is
connected to port D. The same setup and connections can be used when using CY8CKIT-050.
