Hardware
Figure 4-13. Prototyping Area
This area also comprises of a potentiometer to be used for analog system development work. The
potentiometer connects from Vdda, which is a noise free supply and is hence capable of being used
for low noise analog applications. The potentiometer output is available on P6[5] and VR on header
P6 in the prototyping area.

Character LCD
The kit has a character LCD module, which goes into the character LCD header, P8. The LCD runs
on a 3.3-V supply and can function regardless of the voltage on which PSoC is powered. A zero-ohm
resistor setting is available on the LCD section (R71/72), making it possible to convert it to a 3.3 V
LCD.
CAUTION
When the resistor is shifted to support a 5-V LCD module, plugging in a 3.3-V LCD mod-
ule into the board can damage the LCD module.
