Cypress Semiconductor’s FirstTouch Starter Kit includes Kionix Accelerometer

September 1, 2010 By Randy Frank Leave a Comment

Cypress Semiconductor Corporation selected the Kionix KXSC7 accelerometer for use in the new CY8CKIT-014 PSoC5 FirstTouch Starter Kit. The kit is based on the PSoC 5 programmable system-on-chip architecture that uses the 32-bit ARM® Cortex-M3 processor.

The KXSC7 series of Tri-axis, 2g-6, analog accelerometers have low-power consumption and several preset internal low-pass filters with an option for user-definable bandwidth if required for the application. 

In addition to the Kionix accelerometer, the starter kit includes a Thermistor, Proximity Sensing, a CapSense® touch-sensing interface, I/O’s, projects and software to allow users to evaluate PSoC5.

For more information and to order Cypress Semiconductor CY8CKIT-014 PSoC5 FirstTouchTM Starter Kit ($49.00), click here.
