Hardware
5. What is the on-board jumper used for?
The jumper J8 can be used to measure the current of the PSoC™ 6 MCU without the need to desolder any
component from the board. An ammeter can be connected across this jumper to measure the current consumed
by the PSoC™ 6 MCU. Remove the jumper on J8, connect an ammeter (positive terminal of ammeter to Pin 2), and
power the kit though USB connector J10.
6. What are input voltage tolerances? Are there any overvoltage protection on this kit?
Input voltage levels are as follows:
Table 8 Input voltage levels
Supply
USB Type-C connector (J10)
VIN connector (J9/J1)
Debug and trace header (J12)
Program and debug header (J11)
Li-Po battery connected (J15)
7. Why is the voltage of the kit restricted to 3.3 V? Can it drive external 5-V interfaces?
The PSoC™ 6 MCU is not meant to be powered for more than 3.6 V. Powering the PSoC™ 6 MCU to more than
3.3 V will damage the chip. You cannot drive the I/O system with more than 3.3-V supply voltages.
8. I powered my board from Arduino by mistake while powering the PSoC™ 6 MCU. Is my PSoC™ 6 MCU device
alive?
Yes. The 3.3 V and 5 V on the power header compatible with Arduino are not input pins and have protection circuit
to prevent the voltage from entering the board. VIN is an input pin and this is routed to the regulator, which is
capable of taking an absolute maximum of 15 V. The P6.V
supply voltage to this pin.
9. I am unable to program the target device.
a) Ensure that SW7 is in the VDDD/KITPROG3 position.
b) Make sure that no external devices are connected to J11.
c) Update your KitProg3 version to the latest using the steps mentioned in the
d) Ensure that the BSP selected in ModusToolbox™ software is CY8CKIT-062-WIFI-BT.
10. Is it possible to power the kit from another Infineon kit through the J1 header?
Yes, VIN pin on the J1 header is the supply input/output pin and can support up to 12 V.
11. What additional overlays can be used with CAPSENSE™?
Any overlay (up to 5-mm thickness) such as wood, acrylic, and glass can be used with CAPSENSE™. Note that
additional tuning may be required when the overlay is changed.
