Build this into Designer as a tool, takes 2 R's and user has a

level translator w/o using a PGA and/or a fixed reference to do it.

Do not just incorporate the attached, build it into the IDE, and select

from standard R 1% values and compute worst case.

Some comments about the LCD displays Cypress ships with DVK -

1) They are puke green, there are several high contrast displays, like white on blue that are equally cheap

and intrinsically easier to read.

2) No backlght, no reason these days not to have a LED B/L, adds pennies to cost of display. Right now,

all the kits I have, I use a separate HID light I shine on board/LCD so I can see the display. Otherwise

in moderate room lighting they are very difficult to read. You would have to make notes to users regarding

impact on current drain in kit.

3) Display viewing angles poor, the technology has moved on in this area. I am sure you can get one

with wider viewing angles.

3) Offer a store item for 4 x 20, some other common form factors. Also OLED plug compatible

solution.

This is a bit off-topic, but the amount of double posts (with identical time-stamps) is a bit annoying! I already wrote some (!) emails to the site-admins (yes, I got a response back) but: nothing happens.

I am not the only one begging for an edit/delete feature of our own posts!

I am not the only one having troubles with this editor (using smileys hangs the editor, pasting text mis-orders the text, etc).

And I'm sure there are some other guys having problems here as well.

There is still an error in PSoC Designer 5.2

csprintf(Buffer,"%8.3f",FloatNumber)

returns part of the second argument ("8.3f") instead of the converted number.
