PSOC® 5 with ARM Cortex-M3 at 80 MHz — what this part brings to a BOM
The Infineon CY8C5888LTQ-LP097 is a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 MCU from the PSOC® 5 series, clocked at 80 MHz. It carries 256 KB Flash, 64 KB RAM, and 2 KB EEPROM on-chip, with a supply range spanning 1.71 V to 5.5 V.
Memory and peripheral integration — BOM consolidation
256 KB Flash is enough for a moderately complex firmware stack with a real-time OS, communication protocol, and sensor fusion library. The 64 KB RAM supports multiple data buffers without external SRAM. 2 KB EEPROM holds calibration constants and configuration parameters that survive a power cycle. On the peripheral side, CapSense eliminates dedicated touch-controller ICs, CAN and USB handle industrial fieldbus and device connectivity, and the LCD controller drives segment displays directly. The 20-bit ADC input and 8-bit DAC outputs cover analog sensing and control without external converters.
