Development Tool Selection
Software
PSoC Designer™
At the core of the PSoC development software suite is PSoC
Designer. Utilized by thousands of PSoC developers, this robust
software has been facilitating PSoC designs for over half a
decade. PSoC Designer is available free of charge at
http://www.cypress.com.
PSoC Programmer
Flexible enough to be used on the bench in development, yet
suitable for factory programming, PSoC Programmer works
either as a standalone programming application or it can operate
directly from PSoC Designer. PSoC Programmer software is
compatible with both PSoC ICE-Cube In-Circuit Emulator and
PSoC MiniProg. PSoC Programmer is available free of charge
at http://www.cypress.com.
Development Kits
All development kits are sold at the Cypress Online Store.

3.3 V using Miniprog3 Programmer. This Programmer kit can be
purchased from Cypress Store using part# ‘CY8CKIT-002 -
MiniProg3’. It is a small, compact programmer which connects
PC via a USB 2.0 cable (provided along with CY8cKIT-002).
