1. Re: Wanted: PSOC 5 (or similar), high-speed USB, and USB Type C

Hello,
There is no plan for Highspeed or sSperspeed USB interface for any of the PSoC family devices in the near future.
Thanks,
Hima

BuHa_1507271 Mar 22, 2018 7:09 PM (in response to BuHa_1507271)Two years later, the lack of high-speed USB support in system-on-a-chip series continues to disappoint me, even in the new PSOC 6 series it seems. I've looked at the FS3, which certainly might be perfect for some designs, but its not a good fit to replace a PSOC. I need the PDB/datapath support, and the digital filter block on the 5 series is attractive. For me USB SuperSpeed of the FS3 is overkill, I just need one step up, to USB high speed.
It looks like PSOC 6 added USB on the go (host or device) support which is a nice add, (not to mention security/speed/power features) but the reduced PDB count on event most high-end PSOC 6 series seems like two steps forward, one step back as a new PSOC series.
If Cypress could come up with a pre-certified "bluetooth module" form factor and a pin compatible high speed USB module based on PSOC 5 or 6 that would be a game changer, but today, the Cypress offerings focused on chip level, while impressive, still seem like technology silos in different product lines. A module-level product, like the CY8CKIT-059 got really close, but not quite there there in this year's bluetooth module market. Gumstick form factor is fine, it doesn't need to be as tiny as a postage stamp, and the larger size would leave room breakout more GPIOs and to put a FS3 on the board to a pin-compatible high/super speed USB alternate version.
