Acronyms Used
The following table lists the acronyms that are used in this
document.
Application Editor
Acronym
AC
Description
The Application Editor allows you to edit custom.c and custom.h
as well as any C or assembly language source code that you add
to your project. With PSoC Express you can create application
software without writing a single line of assembly or C code, but
you have a full featured application editor at your finger tips if you
want it.
alternating current
ADC
API
analog-to-digital converter
application programming interface
central processing unit
continuous time
CPU
CT
DAC
DC
digital-to-analog converter
direct current
Build Manager
The Build Manager gives you the ability to build the application
software, assign pins, and generate the data sheet, schematic,
and BOM for your project.
ECO
external crystal oscillator
electrically erasable programmable read-only mem-
ory
EEPROM
FSR
GPIO
GUI
full scale range
Board Monitor
general purpose IO
graphical user interface
human body model
in-circuit emulator
The Board Monitor is a debugging tool designed to be used while
attached to a prototype board through a communication interface
that allows you to monitor changes in the various design
elements in real time.
HBM
ICE
The default communication for the board monitor is I2C. It uses
the CY3240-I2USB I2C to USB Bridge Debugging/Communi-
cation Kit.
ILO
internal low speed oscillator
internal main oscillator
input/output
IMO
IO
IPOR
LSb
imprecise power on reset
least-significant bit
low voltage detect
Tuners
A Tuner is a visual interface for the Board Monitor that allows you
to view the performance of the HB LED drivers on your test board
while your program is running, and manually override values and
see the results.
LVD
MSb
PC
most-significant bit
program counter
PLL
phase-locked loop
POR
PPOR
PSoC®
PWM
SC
power on reset
Document Conventions
precision power on reset
Programmable System-on-Chip™
pulse width modulator
switched capacitor
slow IMO
Units of Measure
A units of measure table is located in the Electrical Specifications
section. Table 6 on page 13 lists all the abbreviations used to
measure the PSoC devices.
SLIMO
SMP
SRAM
switch mode pump
static random access memory
Numeric Naming
Hexidecimal numbers are represented with all letters in
uppercase with an appended lowercase ‘h’ (for example, ‘14h’ or
‘3Ah’). Hexidecimal numbers may also be represented by a ‘0x’
prefix, the C coding convention. Binary numbers have an
appended lowercase ‘b’ (e.g., 01010100b’ or ‘01000011b’).
Numbers not indicated by an ‘h’ or ‘b’ are decimal.
