PSoC® 4 BLE – Designing BLE Applications
4.3 Hardware Configuration
CY8CKIT-042-BLE Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Pioneer Kit is the development kit for Cypress PSoC 4 BLE and
PRoC BLE devices. Designed for flexibility, this kit offers footprint-compatibility with many third-party Arduino™
shields. The kit includes a provision to populate an extra header to support Digilent® Pmod™ peripheral modules. In
addition, the board features a CapSense® slider, an onboard 1-Mb FRAM, an RGB LED, a push-button switch, an
integrated USB programmer, a program debug header, and USB-UART/I²C bridges.
1. Place the CY8CKIT-142 PSoC 4 BLE Module (red module) on the BLE Pioneer Baseboard.
This kit does not have a thermistor, so to test the Health Thermometer application, you can use the BLE Pioneer
Kit along with one of the following options:
 External Thermistor – Connect an external 10-kΩ thermistor and a reference resistor to the BLE Pioneer Kit
as shown in Figure 26.
Figure 26. External Thermistor Connection
 Simulated Sensor – Instead of using a hardware sensor, the firmware simulates the temperature data and
increments the temperature by 1 ºC per measurement interval (default value is 1 second). Refer to the Sensor
Simulation section for details.
