Hi,

I just bought a CYBLE-212020-01 which I am planning to put on a custom PCB and I would like some help to get started. I started to read through the documentation that prompted some early question.

Is there an eagle library so that I can start designing the PCB?

Once the PCB is designed, can I use a regular FTDI USB to TTL Serial Adapter instead of buying an eval kit?

If yes, do I need to hook TX/RX only or I need CTS/RTS as well?

Once hooked up, what software I need to use to be able to program the chip?

Thank you

There is no eagle library available for the chip. There are dimensions of all of the necessary pads and component sizes/keepout dimensions, etc. in the datasheet.

The chip requires programming through the use of the XRES, CLK, and I/O pins (with ground/voltage powering as well). This uses a protocol for programming the chip, and the easiest way would be to buy a Miniprog3 or some other chip programmer specified to be able to program cypress chips. Here is a document on the details of doing it yourself if you so choose: http://www.cypress.com/file/125271/download

Can you check the dimensions given in the datasheet? Will that be helpful?

Thanks,

hi  Epr:

      i have the same issue about it, due to  CYBLE-212020-01 module has a lot uart ,  which one is the  default uart interface for default firmware, which uart should connect to host mcu? if it's ok of CH430 USB to uart tools;  

   2、 when i  use miniprog3 swd interface to download firmware of module, in the programmer , it can't find  CYBLE-212020-01 in it,  which one should i choose??
