CY8C29x66 Final Data Sheet
PSoC® Overview
Getting Started
The quickest path to understanding the PSoC silicon is by read-
ing this data sheet and using the PSoC Designer Integrated
Development Environment (IDE). This data sheet is an over-
view of the PSoC integrated circuit and presents specific pin,
register, and electrical specifications. For in-depth information,
along with detailed programming information, reference the
PSoC Mixed-Signal Array Technical Reference Manual.
For up-to-date Ordering, Packaging, and Electrical Specification
information, reference the latest PSoC device data sheets on
the web at http://www.cypress.com/psoc.

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. (Reference the PSoC Designer Func-
tional Flow diagram below.)
PSoC Designer helps the customer to select an operating con-
figuration 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.
