PSoC Designer is a Microsoft

®

 Windows based, integrated

development environment for Programmable System-on-Chip

(PSoC) devices. The PSoC Designer IDE and application run on

Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows Millennium (Me),

Microsoft Vista, and Windows XP. 
PSoC Designer helps the customer to select an operating

configuration for the PSoC, write application code that uses the

PSoC, and debug the application. This system provides design

database management by project, an integrated debugger with

In-Circuit Emulator, in-system programming support, and the

CYASM macro assembler for the CPUs. 
PSoC Designer also supports a high level C language compiler

developed specifically for the devices in this family.

Device Editor
The Device Editor subsystem enables the user to select different

onboard analog and digital components called user modules,

using the PSoC blocks. Examples of user modules are ADCs,

DACs, nvSRAM, Amplifiers, and Filters.
The device editor also supports easy development of multiple

configurations and dynamic reconfiguration. Dynamic

configuration enables changing configurations at run time.
PSoC Designer sets up power on initialization tables for selected

PSoC block configurations and creates source code for an

application framework. The framework contains software to

operate the selected components. Also, if the project uses more

than one operating configuration, the framework contains

routines to switch between different sets of PSoC block

configurations at run time. PSoC Designer can print out a

configuration sheet for a given project configuration, for use

during application programming in conjunction with the Device

Data Sheet. After the framework is generated, the user can add

application specific code to flesh out the framework. It is also

possible to change the selected components and regenerate the

framework. 

Design Browser
The Design Browser enables users to select and import

preconfigured designs into their project. Users can easily browse

a catalog of preconfigured designs to facilitate time to design.

Examples provided in the tools include a 300 baud modem, LIN

Bus master and slave, fan controller, and magnetic card reader.

Application Editor
In the Application Editor you can edit C language and Assembly

language source code. You can also assemble, compile, link,

and build.
Assembler.  The macro assembler seamlessly merges the

assembly code with C code. The link libraries automatically use

absolute addressing or are compiled in relative mode, and linked

with other software modules to get absolute addressing.
C Language Compiler. A C language compiler that supports

Cypress PSoC family devices is available. Even if you have

never worked in the C language before, the product quickly

enables you to create complete C programs for the PSoC family

devices.
The embedded, optimizing C compiler provides all the features

of C tailored to the PSoC architecture. It is complete with

embedded libraries providing port and bus operations, standard

keypad and display support, and extended math functionality.

Debugger
The PSoC Designer Debugger subsystem provides hardware

in-circuit emulation, which enables the designer to test the

program in a physical system while providing an internal view of

the PSoC device. Debugger commands enable the designer to

read and program, read and write data memory, read and write

IO registers, read and write CPU registers, set and clear

breakpoints, and provide program run, halt, and step control. The

debugger also enables the designer to create a trace buffer of

registers and memory locations of interest.
