Using the JTAG/SWD programming interface that uses a MiniProg3 ■ 4.2.2.1 On-board Programming Interface The on-board programmer interfaces with your PC through a USB connector marked as USB programming. CY8CKIT-030 PSoC 3 Development Kit Guide, Doc. # 001-61038 Rev. *A...
Apart from the on-board programming interface, the board also provides the option of using the MiniProg3. This interface is much faster than the on-board 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. *A...
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. *A...
After making these changes, you can make a boost convertor based design by making the appropriate configurations in the project. 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. *A...
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. *A...
