Following the recent launch of the PSoC4 by Cypress Semiconductor, the company has now launched a Pioneer kit for the device. When used with the PSoC Creator integrated design environment, the Kit allows engineers to start exploring how to use the device.
The expandable PSoC4 Pioneer Kit includes Arduino Shield and Digilent Pmod compatible connectors, enabling customers to pick from a variety of third-party expansion boards. The kit also includes a CapSense slider, an RGB LED and a user button. An onboard PSoC5LP device serves as the programmer and debugger, eliminating the need for external programmers.
Pioneer Kits are available for pre ordering from the element 14 website for $25 (£16.56). "The PSoC 4 Pioneer Kit is exactly the type of innovative product that our customers want: flexible, cost effective and expandable with open source architectures," said David Shen, Premier Farnell's group cto. "We are extremely pleased to collaborate with Cypress to introduce this new product to the market and excited about the opportunities this versatile new product brings to the design engineers. As the first supplier taking pre-orders for this kit, we're expecting it to be in very high demand by designers everywhere."
