I have a product that is produced in quantities of 1500-3000 per year, which uses the CY8C5267AXI-LP051, and would like to know if it's possible to purchase pre-flashed parts directly from Cypress, to be used in assembly. I do not currently have an FAE assigned, but am located in Northern California. Can anyone at Cypress help? Thanks!

Cypress does not offer pre-programmed parts for small quantities. Please check with third-party programming vendors who provide this service. You should be able to find them in the market. For example, our distributor Arrow has such a business.

AlPe,

If Cypress doesn't provide pre-programmed FLASH parts, many distributors (I'm assuming based on your low volume you are using a distributor) provide this service for a small fee.

I used to work for a company that used a PSoC in their low-volume product line.   The PSoC on the board had a programming header to be used with a MiniProg programmer/debugger.   Our assembly line programmed the PSoC shortly before the End-of-Line testing.

The programming header was available for field-updates if needed.
