CURRENT MANUFACTURER OFFERS - Future Electronics’ PSoC Dart Starter board

dart board
Future Electronics’ PSoC Dart Starter board helps embedded designers quickly and easily evaluate the PSoC family from Cypress Semiconductor for development of mixed-signal embedded applications.

The PSoC Dart Starter Board allows engineers to evaluate the performance of PSoC mixed- signal arrays without writing a single line of
code. The target PSoC device provided is the Cypress CY8C21434, which allows the user to set-up turnkey demonstrations of Cypress CapSense™ touch sensing and proximity sensing solutions. Spare I/O pins are brought out on a connector, allowing engineers to prototype and evaluate customer-specific circuits.

The device is controlled and programmed from a desktop PC via the Cypress USB-to-I2C interface IC also included on the starter board. Using the Cypress PSoC Express visual embedded-system design tool, engineers can quickly modify any of the reference designs or create custom solutions within minutes.

FEATURES
• On-board CapSense proximity sensor
• Touch-sensitive slider panel
• Tri-colour LEDs for prototyping
• Buzzer provided on board

APPLICATIONS
Development of embedded processing and controls for:
• Domestic appliances
• Industrial equipment
• Advanced consumer products
