PSoC™ Creator & Designer Forum Discussions
I have been looking for some PC Software to read data accumulated from the PSOC device while it is running my firmware. This is my first PSOC development project and I love the PSOC system.
I am usong PSOC creator to develop my application. I thought when I started that I could just put voltage, current meters etc on the schematic as components for the project and it would report that data in PSOC Creator (or some other software) while it was in debug mode or something but that is not the case.
I would love to know if I am doing something wrong and dont understand or if there is some software that will do this with as little dev time as possible.
Thank you very much in andvacne for your help
Show LessDear developer community,
I have a problem with understanding the creation of components with PSoC Creator.
In the tutorials I learned to create PLD based Verilog Components and to create Datapath based Components with the UBD Editor or the Datapath Configuration tool.
And I learned that the PLDs are designed to solve combinatorial logic and the Datapaths are designed to solve arithmetic operations.
And I learned that the most efficent way to programm a PSoC it is to combine this kinds of components.
Now my question:
Do I have to decide which component I use for every single component?
Or is there any tool which uses both components (PLD based and Datapath based), to create the most efficent component?
Thank you for your effort and best regards

Show LessHello all,
I want to facilitate my capsense board with the remote to control the applications corresponding.
I'm using the board for the electrical switching application,
1. in that i want to give the remote control facility with the default touch switching.
2. is it feasible
3. suggest, awaiting for them.
Thanks & Regards-

Show LessI’m having problems with my debugger. I am using PSoC Creator 3.0 Component Pack 7 (3.0.0.1539). I know that there is a newer version but am reluctant to upgrade in the middle of a project. I can't afford the time if it breaks my project. This issue just started today. When I start a debug session it seems to start but never halts at the beginning like usual. If I hit the break button nothing happens. In the output window I get the following:
Programming started for device: 'PSoC 4 CY8C4245LQI-483'.
Device ID Check

Device 'PSoC 4 CY8C4245LQI-483' was successfully programmed at 07/15/2014 12:54:52.

Show LessI ran into a pretty bright 7th grader the other day. He is 12 and very proficient in math. After some conversation, I found he is proficient in advanced algebra (what I was learning at age 16). He expressed some interest in learning programming.
I want to demonstrate the ARM platform to him and my PSOC5 toys. Do you feel a kid like that would be able to learn and handle C and the the concepts of embedded computing? I want to hook him early so he can not only impress his teachers, but turn that knowledge into a pragmatic career.
The thing that impressed me most about him was his ability to count in hex.
Also, I may wind up tutoring a high-school freshman in algebra who is struggling due to a learning disability. What I find about most schools in the US is that they are not good about exposing students to the practical side of what they are learning. Because their own curriculums are boring and full of drudgery, they start labeling the unmotivated students as learning disabled.
One thing this kid loves is video games. I want to show him how math is heavily used in the workings of video games and how to program them in the hope of motivating him. Once he is motivated, whatever learning disability he may or may not have he will compensate for. What language, engine, or platform should I start with here?
Show LessUsing the PSoC5LP development board CY8CKIT-050, I have found examples of getting 8-bit data out of a filter and into a VDAC. I want to get the digital data out of the Filter into SRAM arrays. In this build, I have verified that I can get data out of the Sequencing SAR but I cannot get data out of the following filter.
I initialize two elements of the destination arrays just to see if they get overwritten by new data. I am using the 10K pot at P6[5] for one data source and from the junction of two 2700 ohm resistors at P3[3] for the other data source. I use the LCD to write three elements of each array to see what the output looks like.
What destination address should I use for the DMAs? LO16((uint32)Filter_STAGEAM_PTR)
or LO16((uint32)Filter_STAGEAH_PTR)
or LO16((uint32)Filter_STAGEA_PTR)
Should I be using Filter_DALIGN_REG |= 0x0F; to align the data?
Note that I am not starting the isr_dma here. This was used to successfully read data from the SAR. I start the isr_filt interrupt to get data unsuccessfully from the filter.
Can anyone suggest what I am doing wrong or point to an example project that does not involve a VDAC?
Is there any decent document or examples around that shows how to use the UART FIFO?
I note many discussions on UARTs and there seems to be plenty of confusion.
At present, I set up the UART for single byte RX interrupt and have a circular buffer being fed by the interrupt and the mainline code dequing and parsing the received data, looking for valid packets.
It seems to me the FIFO should be able to replace my circular buffer.
There seem to be little documentation regarding inetrrupt driven UART, Use of the FIFO and what sort of error checking should be done.
Thanks
Show LessHello everyone,
i am using the CapSense controller of PSoC.
The touching element i built can be seen in the attached file....I coated a transparent conductive layer on the substrate and then separate the layer into eight stripe elements. In the end i made a nonconductive overlayer on top of conductiving eight elements.
I programmed the PSoC, assigned the pins, then connected the pins with 8 elements using alligator clamps. When i touch certain element, the corresponding LED light should be on and the LCD also shows the touching position. But it does not work as i wanted, the Capsense controller seems not able to detect the capacitance change from the finger.
I measured the resistance of each strip element (130-200 Ohm), is it because of the high resistive load that the capacitance change cant be sensed?
But when i remove the alligator clamps from the touching element and i touch certain clamp, the desired effects were shown.
Anyone has idea why cant the finger touch be sensored on the touching elements?

Show LessIs there any documentation on creating custom services in psoc-ble??
I am trying to create an interface similar to the TI SensorTag and when I create the custom service with custom characteristics in the profile then generate the application, I don't see any generated code for the custom service.
Am I missing something???
