Cypress Semiconductor's PSoC 6 BLE prototyping kit is a low-cost, easy-to-use hardware platform to develop and evaluate with a certified Bluetooth 5.0 module featuring the industry-leading low-power, flexible, and secure PSoC 6 microcontroller. This kit is designed with a snap-away form-factor, allowing users to separate the KitProg (on-board programmer and debugger based on Cypress' PSoC 5LP MCU) from the target board and use independently. The kit also features a mikroBUS™ interface allowing developers to interface the PSoC 6 MCU with any of MikroElektronika's 500+ click boards™.
The PSoC 6 BLE prototyping kit features the PSoC 63 BLE module which is a fully certified, integrated, and programmable turnkey solution for developers wanting to easily add Bluetooth connectivity to their IoT design. This module retains all the programmability and flexibility that comes with PSoC MCUs, combining programmable and reconfigurable analog and digital blocks with flexible automatic routing as well as digital programmable logic, high-performance analog-to-digital conversion (ADC), low-power comparators, and standard communication and timing peripherals.
The PSoC 63 BLE module provides a royalty-free BLE stack supporting Bluetooth 5.0 and provides 36 GPIOs in a 14 mm x 18.5 mm x 2.00 mm package. The PSoC 6 BLE Prototyping Kit along with the on-board module is the ideal development platform for IoT designers seeking a high-performance, BLE wireless solution.
The PSoC 6 BLE prototyping kit can be evaluated using the PSoC Creator IDE with support in ModusToolbox forthcoming.
