USB-UART Bridge

KitProg2 on the PSoC 6 BLE Prototyping Board can act as a USB-UART bridge. The UART lines
between KitProg2 and the target are hard-wired on the board, through the snappable area, with
UART_RX assigned to P5[0] and UART_TX assigned to P5[1] on target PSoC 6 MCU. For more
details on the KitProg2 USB-UART functionality, see the USB-UART Bridge section in the
User Guide.

USB-I2C Bridge

KitProg2 can function as a USB-I2C bridge and communicate with the software utility Bridge Control
Panel (BCP). The I2C lines on target EZ-BLE Creator Module are P6[5] (SDA) and P6[4] (SCL),
which are hardwired on the board to the I2C lines of KitProg2. The USB-I2C bridge supports I2C
speeds of 50 kHz, 100 kHz, 400 kHz, and 1 MHz. For more details on the KitProg2 USB-I2C func-
tionality, see the USB-I2C Bridge section in the

Updating the KitProg2 Firmware

The KitProg2 firmware normally does not require any update. You can use the PSoC Programmer
software to update the KitProg2 firmware if necessary. For a detailed explanation on how to update
the KitProg2 firmware, see Updating the KitProg2 Firmware in the
PSoC® 6 BLE Prototyping Board Guide, Doc. # 002-24993 Rev. **
