PRELIMINARY
PSoC^® 3: CY8C36 Family Datasheet
7.1 Example Peripherals
The flexibility of the CY8C36 family’s Universal Digital Blocks
(UDBs) and Analog Blocks allow the user to create a wide range
of components (peripherals). The most common peripherals
were built and characterized by Cypress and are shown in the
PSoC Creator component catalog, however, users may also
create their own custom components using PSoC Creator. Using
PSoC Creator, users may also create their own components for
reuse within their organization, for example sensor interfaces,
proprietary algorithms, and display interfaces.
The number of components available through PSoC Creator is
too numerous to list in the datasheet, and the list is always
growing. An example of a component available for use in
CY8C36 family, but, not explicitly called out in this datasheet is
the UART component.
7.1.1 Example Digital Components
The following is a sample of the digital components available in
PSoC Creator for the CY8C36 family. The exact amount of
hardware resources (UDBs, routing, RAM, flash) used by a
component varies with the features selected in PSoC Creator for
the component.
„ Communications
‡ I²C
‡ UART
‡ SPI
„ Functions
‡ EMIF
‡ PWMs
‡ Timers
‡ Counters
„ Logic
‡ NOT
‡ OR

‡ AND
7.1.2 Example Analog Components
The following is a sample of the analog components available in
PSoC Creator for the CY8C36 family. The exact amount of
hardware resources (SC/CT blocks, routing, RAM, flash) used
by a component varies with the features selected in PSoC
Creator for the component.
„ Amplifiers
‡ TIA
‡ PGA
‡ opamp
„ ADC
‡ Delta-Sigma
„ DACs
‡ Current
‡ Voltage
‡ PWM
„ Comparators
„ Mixers
7.1.3 Example System Function Components
The following is a sample of the system function components
available in PSoC Creator for the CY8C36 family. The exact
amount of hardware resources (UDBs, DFB taps, SC/CT blocks,
routing, RAM, flash) used by a component varies with the
features selected in PSoC Creator for the component.
„ CapSense
„ LCD Drive
„ LCD Control
„ Filters
7.1.4 Designing with PSoC Creator
7.1.4.1 More Than a Typical IDE
A successful design tool allows for the rapid development and
deployment of both simple and complex designs. It reduces or
eliminates any learning curve. It makes the integration of a new
design into the production stream straightforward.
PSoC Creator is that design tool.
PSoC Creator is a full featured Integrated Development
Environment (IDE) for hardware and software design. It is
optimized specifically for PSoC devices and combines a modern,
powerful software development platform with a sophisticated
graphical design tool. This unique combination of tools makes
PSoC Creator the most flexible embedded design platform
available.
Graphical design entry simplifies the task of configuring a
particular part. You can select the required functionality from an
extensive catalog of components and place it in your design. All
components are parameterized and have an editor dialog that
allows you to tailor functionality to your needs.
PSoC Creator automatically configures clocks and routes the I/O
to the selected pins and then generates APIs to give the
application complete control over the hardware. Changing the
PSoC device configuration is as simple as adding a new
component, setting its parameters, and rebuilding the project.
At any stage of development you are free to change the
hardware configuration and even the target processor. To
retarget your application (hardware and software) to new
devices, even from 8- to 32-bit families, just select the new
device and rebuild.
You also have the ability to change the C compiler and evaluate
an alternative. Components are designed for portability and are
validated against all devices, from all families, and against all
supported tool chains. Switching compilers is as easy as editing
the from the project options and rebuilding the application with
no errors from the generated APIs or boot code.
