This repository contains examples and demos for PSoC 6 MCU family of devices, a single chip solution for the emerging IoT devices. PSoC 6 MCU bridges the gap between expensive, power hungry application processors and low‑performance microcontrollers (MCUs). The ultra‑low‑power, dual-core architecture of PSoC 6 MCU offers the processing performance needed by IoT devices, eliminating the tradeoffs between power and performance.
Cypress provides a wealth of data at www.cypress.com to help you select the right PSoC device and effectively integrate it into your design. Visit our PSoC 6 MCU webpage to explore more about PSoC 6 MCU family of device. Feel free to explore through the code example source files and let us innovate together!

This code example demonstrates the implementation of simple UART communication and LED control using PSoC 6 MCU. The UART and LED control tasks are executed by the Arm Cortex-M4 CPU of PSoC 6 MCU.
This example demonstrates multiple methods of configuring, reading, writing, and generating interrupts with PSoC 6 General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) pins. Both the PSoC Creator schematic Pins Component and PDL GPIO driver methods are shown.
These examples demonstrate the two CPU cores in PSoC 6 MCU doing separate independent tasks, and communicating with each other using shared memory and the inter-processor communication (IPC) block.
PSoC 6 bridges the gap between expensive, power hungry application processors and low‑performance microcontrollers (MCUs). The ultra‑low‑power PSoC 6 MCU architecture offers the processing performance needed by IoT devices, eliminating the tradeoffs between power and performance. The PSoC 6 MCU contains a dual‑core architecture, with both cores on a single chip. It has an Arm® Cortex®‑M4 for high‑performance tasks, and an Arm® Cortex®‑M0+ for low-power tasks, and with security built-in, your IoT system is protected. To learn more on the device, please visit our PSoC 6 MCU webpage.
