Introduction
The CY8CKIT-029 PSoC
®
LCD Segment Drive Expansion Board Kit (EBK) is an expansion board
used with either CY8CKIT-001 PSoC Development Kit or CY8CKIT-030 PSoC 3 Development Kit or
CY8CKIT-050 PSoC 5LP Development Kit. It allows you to evaluate PSoC's LCD drive capability by
designing your own projects with the easy-to-use LCD segment component in Cypress's PSoC
Creator™ or altering the code examples provided with this kit.
The CY8CKIT-029 PSoC LCD Segment Drive EBK is based on the PSoC family of devices. PSoC is
a programmable system-on-chip platform for 8-, 16-, and 32-bit applications. With PSoC, you can
create the exact combination of peripherals and integrated proprietary IP to meet the needs of your
applications.
The included example projects support PSoC 3 (8051) and PSoC 5LP (ARM Cortex-M3).

PSoC Creator
Cypress's PSoC Creator software is a state-of-the-art, easy-to-use software development Integrated
Development Environment (IDE). It introduces a hardware and software co-design environment
based on classic schematic entry and revolutionary embedded design methodology.
With PSoC Creator, you can:
■
Create and share user defined, custom peripherals using hierarchical schematic design.
■
Automatically place and route select components and integrate simple glue logic normally resid-
ing in discrete muxes.
■
Trade off hardware and software design considerations allowing you to focus on what matters
and get to market faster.
PSoC Creator also enables you to tap into an entire tools ecosystem with integrated compiler tool
chains, RTOS solutions, and production programmers to support PSoC 3, PSoC 4 and PSoC 5LP.
