Development Tools

❐

ModusToolbox

®

software enables cross platform code development with a robust suite of tools and software libraries.

❐

There is no kit available for the PSoC 61 product line. However, the CY8CKIT-062-WiFi-BT PSoC 6 WiFi-BT Pioneer

Kit is available: a low-cost hardware platform that enables design and debug of the PSoC 62 CY8C62x6/7 product line, and the CYW4343W Wi-Fi + Bluetooth Combo Chip .

❐ PSoC 6 CAD libraries provide footprint and schematic support for common tools. BSDL files and IBIS models are also available.

■

Training Videos are available on a wide range of topics including the PSoC 6 MCU 101 series .

■

Cypress Developer Community enables connection with fellow PSoC developers around the world, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and hosts a dedicated PSoC 6 MCU Community.

ModusToolbox Software

ModusToolbox Software is Cypress' comprehensive collection of multi-platform tools and software libraries that enable an immersive development experience for creating converged MCU and wireless systems. It is:

■ Comprehensive - it has the resources you need

■ Flexible - you can use the resources in your own workflow

■ Atomic - you can get just the resources you want

Cypress provides a large collection of code repositories on GitHub . This includes:

■ Board Support Packages (BSPs) aligned with Cypress kits

■ Low-level resources, including a hardware abstraction layer (HAL) and peripheral driver library (PDL)

■ Middleware enabling industry-leading features such as CapSense

®

, Bluetooth Low Energy, and mesh networks

■ An extensive set of thoroughly tested code example applications

Note: The HAL provides a high-level, simplified interface to configure and use the hardware blocks on Cypress MCUs. It is a generic interface that can be used across multiple product families. For example, it wraps the PSoC 6 PDL with a simplified API, but the PDL exposes all low-level peripheral functionality. You can leverage the HAL's simpler and more generic interface for most of an application, even if one portion requires finer-grained control.

ModusToolbox Software is IDE-neutral and easily adaptable to your workflow and preferred development environment. It includes a project creator, peripheral and library configurators, a library manager, as well as the optional Eclipse IDE for ModusToolbox, as

Figure 1 shows. For information on using Cypress tools, refer to the documentation delivered with ModusToolbox software, and

AN228571: Getting Started with PSoC 6 MCU on ModusToolbox .

PSoC Creator™

PSoC Creator is a free Windows-based Integrated Design Environment (IDE). It enables you to design hardware and firmware

systems concurrently, based on PSoC 6 MCU. Figure 2 shows that with PSoC Creator, you can:

1. Explore the library of 200+ Components in PSoC Creator

2. Drag and drop Component icons to complete your hardware system design in the main design workspace

4. Co-design your application firmware and hardware in the

PSoC Creator IDE or build project for third-party IDE

3. Configure Components using the Component Configuration

Tools and the Component datasheets

5. Prototype your solution with the PSoC 6 Pioneer Kits. If a design change is needed, PSoC Creator and Components enable you to make changes on-the-fly without the need for hardware revisions.
