Explore the PSoC FirstTouch Starter Kit

PSoC is made easy to learn, evaluate and develop with using the PSoC FirstTouch Starter Kits.  With the addition of CyFi Low-Power RF, wireless is now just as easy.  Read through the below sections and discover what capabilities these kits provide.

	This intuitive starter kit allows you to evaluate the PSoC programmable system-on-chip and CyFi Low-Power RF in CapSense touch-sensing, proximity-sensing, temperature-sensing, and light-sensing applications.  It includes a PC dongle with RF, an RF expansion card with power amplification for long-range applications, a multifunction expansion card, and two battery packs (2xAAA and CR2032).  It also features the PSoC Designer IDE and Cypress's Sense and Control Dashboard Software. This kit is also designed to support multiple expansion packs which are listed below.

The CY3271-EXP1 is an expansion kit for the “CY3271 PSoC FirstTouch Starter Kit with CyFi Low-Power RF.” Included in the kit are two boards; the Weather Station Expansion Board (atmospheric pressure, humidity, temperature, and ambient light) and the Pigtail Thermistor Expansion Board. The Sense & Control Dashboard (SCD) from the CY3271 Kit lets users quickly setup and monitor a wired or wireless sensor network through an intuitive visual dashboard.  Easily demonstrate features such as data logging, data aggregation, alarms, and sensor calibration for nearly any type of sensor.	Expand your sensing capabilities with this kit. Included in the kit are 2 sets  of AAA batteries and a long range CyFi Low-Power RF board with sensing capabilities. Once programmed, these boards are easy to bind into your Star network. Increase the nodes in your network and evaluate the networking capabilities of the product while simultaneously doing real time environmental sensing.

The CY3270 PSoC FirstTouch Starter Kit provides a quick, easy, and affordable way to evaluate the integration, flexibility and real mixed-signal programmability of PSoC programmable system-on-chips. Without writing or debugging a single line of C or assembly code, you can experience the power of PSoC devices performing the following four out of the box designs with two thumb-drive form factor boards:   CapSense Touch Sensing controlling the color of LEDs Temperature Sensing controlling the color and blinking rate of 3 LED and the sound of a buzzer Light Sensing controlling the intensity of a LED CapSense Proximity Sensing controlling the color of LEDs
