Audio connector

Plug-in your headphones and listen to audio output from mp3 decoder circuit.

Power LED

We have added power indicator LED, so you can be sure whether your board has stable power supply.

Battery Charger circuit

MCP73832 Battery Charger circuit enables you to charge your Li-Polymer battery directly from USB port.

Battery connector

Li-Polymer battery connector allows you easier connection with your battery. Autonomous power supply will give your mikromedia the wings it deserves.

miniUSB connector

Microcontroler supports Full Speed and USB 2.0 OTG, so this connector allows you to communicate with a PC or other USB devices using USB connection.

Power regulator

On-Board power regulator ensures that each part of the board get the right voltages.

RTCC Crystal Oscillator

Board contains 32.768kHz Crystal oscillator (X2) which provides external clock for internal RTCC module.

Stereo Audio codec

VS1053 MPEG audio decoder with SPI interface for fast reproduction of Ogg Vorbis / MP3 / AAC / WMA / FLAC / MIDI audio files.

Connection pads

Every unsused microcontroller pin is available through connection pads. They can be used to connect your mikromedia board with additional shields or accessory boards.

Crystal Oscillator

16Mhz crystal oscillator circuit that provides external clock is connected to microcontroller osc pins.

Accelerometer

On-board ADXL345 Digital Accelerometer allows you to measure acceleration.

Microcontroller

Powerful CY8C5868AXI-LP035 microcontroller with the ARM Cortex-M3 core, operating at 67 MHz with 256 KB of Flash memory and up to 64kb of RAM.

FRAM

Store 2 Mbit of data in FM25H20 Ferromagnetic RAM with up to 40 MHz SPI interface. It suports over 100 trillion Reads/Writes and has over 10 Year Data Retention.

microSD card slot

microSD Card slot allows you to store large ammounts of data externally on microSD card using fast SPI communication.

mikroProg connector

Pads for connecting and programming the board with mikroProg for PSoC® 5LP programmer.

Cortex Debug connector

The Cortex Debug Connector supports JTAG debug, Serial Wire debug and Serial Wire Viewer operations (via SWD connection when Serial Wire debug mode is used).

Why choose mikromedia

Programming

On-board CY8C5868AXI-LP035 microcontroller is preprogrammed with fast USB HID bootloader, so it’s ready to work right out of the box. You don’t have to spend a dollar more on programmers. For those who need it, board can also be programmed and debugged using mikroProg™ for PSoC® 5LP debugger.

Compilers

Mikromedia for PSoC® 5LP is fully supported by PSoC® Creator™, the free Windows-based IDE from Cypress which allows concurrent hardware and application firmware design.
