Easy and Affordable Starter Kit to Accelerate Mixed -Signal A D VA N TA G E S

Embedded Application Development Embedded Designs Available for Use
Right Out-of-the-Box
The Cypress PSoC FirstTouch starter kit provides a quick, easy, and affordable way
• CapSense Touch-sensing
for embedded customers to evaluate the integration, flexibility, and real mixed-signal
• Temperature-sensing
programmability of PSoC mixed-signal arrays. Without writing a single line of C or Assembly
code, you can experience the power of PSoC mixed-signal arrays. Right out-of-the-box, you • Light-sensing

can see a single PSoC device perform several designs—Cypress CapSense touch-sensing, • CapSense Proximity-sensing
™
temperature-sensing, light-sensing, and proximity-sensing. And with Cypress’s PSoC Express Highly-Integrated Programmable Kit
visual embedded system design tool, you can modify these designs as you wish or even Optimized for Embedded Applications
create your own applications. • Integrates Four Embedded Applications in
a Single Thumbdrive Form-factor
• General-purpose I/O Pins Accessible for
M u lt iFu n c t i o n ex pa n s i o n c a rd inputs and outputs Further Evaluation and Development
