Using the JTAG/SWD programming interface with a MiniProg3 ■ 4.2.2.1 Onboard Programming Interface The onboard programmer interfaces with your PC through a USB connector, as shown in Figure 4-4. CY8CKIT-030 PSoC 3 Development Kit Guide, Doc. # 001-61038 Rev. *H...
Apart from the onboard programming interface, the board also provides the option of using the MiniProg3. This interface is much faster than the onboard program interface. The JTAG/SWD programming is done through the 10-pin connector, J3. CY8CKIT-030 PSoC 3 Development Kit Guide, Doc. # 001-61038 Rev. *H...
The USB connector connects to the D+ and D– lines on the PSoC to enable development of USB applications using the board. This USB interface can also supply power to the board, as discussed in Power Supply on page CY8CKIT-030 PSoC 3 Development Kit Guide, Doc. # 001-61038 Rev. *H...
After making these changes, you can configure the project to make a boost convertor-based design. The input power supply to the boost convertor must be provided through the test points marked Vbat and GND. CY8CKIT-030 PSoC 3 Development Kit Guide, Doc. # 001-61038 Rev. *H...

When a reverse voltage is applied across the protection circuit from the external connector side, Q4 P-MOS will turn off, thus protecting the components on the board from reverse voltage. CY8CKIT-030 PSoC 3 Development Kit Guide, Doc. # 001-61038 Rev. *H...
PSoC Development Kit can be easily ported over to port D on this board. A caveat to this is that there is no opamp available on this port; therefore, opamp-based designs are not recommended for use on this port. CY8CKIT-030 PSoC 3 Development Kit Guide, Doc. # 001-61038 Rev. *H...

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. Figure 4-14. Pin 1 Indication CY8CKIT-030 PSoC 3 Development Kit Guide, Doc. # 001-61038 Rev. *H...
The slider elements are connected to pins P5[0:4]. The Cmod (modulation capacitor) is connected to pin P6[4] and an optional Rb (bleeder resistor) is available on P15[4]. Figure 4-16. CapSense Sensors CY8CKIT-030 PSoC 3 Development Kit Guide, Doc. # 001-61038 Rev. *H...
Programming the Code Examples Follow these steps to open and program code examples: 1. In the PSoC Creator start page, go to Examples and Kits > Kits > CY8CKIT-030 3.0 and click on a code example. 2. Create a folder in the desired location and click OK.
Continuous mode of operation is selected because the ADC scans only one channel. ■ Conversion rate is set to 187 samples/sec, which is the maximum sample rate possible at 20-bit ■ resolution. CY8CKIT-030 PSoC 3 Development Kit Guide, Doc. # 001-61038 Rev. *H...
ADC input is measured against internal Vssa. Any offset in the measurement can be positive or negative. This can result in a small offset voltage even when the potentiometer is zero. Figure 5-3. Voltage Display CY8CKIT-030 PSoC 3 Development Kit Guide, Doc. # 001-61038 Rev. *H...
Figure 5-4). Note If the CY8CKIT-030 is programmed with any other code example involving LCD display before programming the IntensityLED.hex file, the LCD continues to display the output of the previous project because the LCD component is not used in the IntensityLED project. The LCD display is cleared by power cycling the board.
The device wakes up when SW2 is pressed again and displays the time on the LCD. The following figures show the output display. Figure 5-5. PSoC 3 in Active Mode CY8CKIT-030 PSoC 3 Development Kit Guide, Doc. # 001-61038 Rev. *H...
CapSense buttons and one five-element slider provided on the board. Each capacitive sensor on the board is scanned using the Cypress CSD algorithm. The buttons are pre- tuned in the example code to take care of factors such as board parasitic.
Turning the potentiometer results in LCD value change. This also results in change in the period of the sine wave fed into LED4, which can also be observed. Figure 5-9. ADC Output CY8CKIT-030 PSoC 3 Development Kit Guide, Doc. # 001-61038 Rev. *H...
