PSoC 4 MCU

[Anonymous]

I have a pulse sensor(ppg) and i am trying to connect it to an analog pin so that i can store the pulse values, but i am having trouble with this. So, my question would be how do i connect the pulse sensor to the the psoc board and what are the components to be included so that i can see some values when i read of the analog pin.

Not clear what are you up to. Please post your project (File-> Create workspace bundle-> minimal)  and/or sensor type/specs to have better response.

If detection of the peak value of the analog pulse is what you  need, than look into Cypress Application Note AN60321:

It will guide you how to capture peak amplitude of pulses (code provided). All you need then is to digitize it with ADC.
