Overview

The CY8C4248LQI-BL573 is a highly integrated PSoC 4 BLE SoC that combines a 48MHz Arm Cortex-M0 core with a Bluetooth 4.2 radio and programmable analog and digital blocks. It features 256KB of flash and 32KB of RAM, specifically designed for low-power wireless applications requiring custom hardware peripherals. The device stands out for its CapSense technology and Universal Digital Blocks (UDBs), which allow for hardware-level customization without increasing CPU overhead.

Why Choose This Part

This PSoC 4 variant offers exceptional flexibility through its 4 Universal Digital Blocks and programmable analog front-end, reducing the need for external discrete components. It provides a wide operating voltage range up to 5.5V and features industry-leading CapSense Sigma-Delta technology for robust touch sensing in noisy environments.

Applications

Wireless Human Interface Devices
Ideal for battery-powered mice, keyboards, and remote controls utilizing BLE connectivity and CapSense touch interfaces.
Smart Home Sensors
Utilizes the 12-bit SAR ADC and low-power comparators for environmental monitoring and security sensors with long battery life.
Wearable Medical Devices
The integrated Opamps and 1.5uA Deep Sleep current enable precision biometric sensing in compact, power-constrained designs.
Industrial IoT Nodes
Leverages the 1.71V to 5.5V supply range and integrated IDACs for 4-20mA loop control or sensor excitation in industrial environments.

Getting Started

Developers should use PSoC Creator or ModusToolbox for hardware configuration and firmware development. The CY8CKIT-042-BLE-A Pioneer Kit is the recommended hardware platform for prototyping Bluetooth Low Energy applications with this silicon family. Practical development involves using the TopDesign schematic editor to drag-and-drop components like the BLE stack, SAR ADC, and UDB-based logic.
