Two Design Environments to Get You Started Quickly
PSoC
®
Creator™ Integrated Design Environment (IDE)
is an Integrated Design Environment (IDE) that enables concurrent hardware and firmware editing, compiling and
debugging of PSoC 3, PSoC 4, PSoC 5LP, PSoC 4 BLE, PRoC BLE and EZ-BLE module systems with no code size limitations. PSoC
peripherals are designed using schematic capture and simple graphical user interface (GUI) with over 120 pre-verified,
production-ready PSoC Components™.
PSoC Components are analog and digital “virtual chips,” represented by an icon that users can drag-and-drop into a design and
configure to suit a broad array of application requirements.
Bluetooth Low Energy Component
The
Bluetooth Low Energy Component
inside PSoC Creator provides a comprehensive GUI-based configuration window that lets you
quickly design BLE applications. The Component incorporates a Bluetooth Core Specification v4.1 compliant BLE protocol stack and
provides API functions to enable user applications to interface with the underlying Bluetooth Low Energy Sub-System (BLESS)
hardware via the stack.
EZ-Serial™ BLE Firmware Platform
The
provides a simple way to access the most common hardware and communication features needed
in BLE applications. EZ-Serial implements an intuitive API protocol over the UART interface and exposes various status and control
signals through the module’s GPIOs, making it easy to add BLE functionality quickly to existing designs.
Use a simple serial terminal and evaluation kit to begin development without requiring an IDE. Refer to the EZ-Serial webpage for
User Manuals and instructions for getting started as well as detailed reference materials.
EZ-BLE modules are pre-flashed with the EZ-Serial Firmware Platform. If you do not have EZ-Serial pre-loaded on your module, you
can download each EZ-BLE module’s firmware images on the
