Introduction

AN82156 explains how to design PSoC Creator Components that use PSoC 3, PSoC 4, and PSoC 5LP Universal Digital Block (UDB) datapaths. Datapath-based Components can implement common functions such as counters, PWMs, Shifters, UARTs, and SPI. They can also be used to create custom digital peripherals, and to perform data management tasks to offload the CPU. The use of the PSoC Creator UDB Editor Tool to create, view, and modify datapath instances is described.
