Development Tools

PSoC Designer is a Microsoft® Windows-based, integrated development environment for the Programmable System-on-Chip (PSoC) devices. The PSoC Designer IDE and application runs on Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows Millennium (Me), or Windows XP (refer Figure 3).

PSoC Designer helps the customer to select an operating config- uration 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 the family.

PSoC Designer Software Subsystems

Device Editor

The Device Editor subsystem allows the user to select different onboard analog and digital components called user modules using the PSoC blocks. Examples of user modules are ADCs, DACs, Amplifiers, and Filters.

The device editor also supports the easy development of multiple configurations and dynamic reconfiguration. Dynamic configuration allows 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 and, if the project uses more than one operating configuration, 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 allows users to select and import preconfigured designs into the user’s 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 allows the seamless merging of the assembly code with C code. The link libraries automatically use absolute addressing or can be compiled in relative mode, and linked with other software modules to get absolute addressing.

C Language Compiler. A C language compiler is available that supports PSoC family devices. Even if you have never worked in the C language before, the product helps you to quickly 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 comes complete with embedded libraries providing port and bus operations, standard keypad and display support, and extended math functionality.
