Flash Code Protection
Note the following details of the Flash code protection features on Cypress devices.
Cypress products meet the specifications contained in their particular Cypress Data Sheets. Cypress believes that its family of
products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, regardless of how they are used. There may be
methods that can breach the code protection features. Any of these methods, to our knowledge, would be dishonest and possibly illegal. Neither Cypress nor any other semiconductor ma nufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”
Cypress is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the inte grity of their code. Co de prot ection i s constantly
evolving. We at Cypress are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our products.
Welcome to the CY3280-28XXX Universal CapSense® Controller Board. This kit is designed to
show the features of CY8C28XXX. The CY8C28XXX family of PSoC
ing parts: CY8C28403-24PVXI, CY8C28413-24PVXI, CY8C28513-24AXI, CY8C28623-24LTXI,
CY8C28433-24PVXI, CY8C28533-24AXI, CY8C28243-24PVXI, CY8C28643-24LTXI, CY8C2844524PVXI, CY8C28545-24AXI, and CY8C28645-24LTXI. The CY3280-28XXX Universal CapSense
Controller Board contains the 56-pin OCD part. The 56-pin OCD part is only used for in-circuit
debugging.
Note OCD parts are NOT available for production.
The CapSense feature of CY8C28XXX can be implemented with the CY3280-SLM Universal
CapSense Linear Slider Module. The two boards are connected by a 44-pin connector. The other
features of CY3280-28XXX can be implemented with the CY3280-CPM1 Universal CapSense
Plus™ Controller Module. The two boards are connected by a 40-pin connector. The CY3280-SLM
Universal CapSense Linear Slider Module and the CY3280-CPM1 Unive rsal CapSense Plus Controller Module can be connected to the CY3280-28XXX Universal CapSense Controller Board at the
same time.

2.1.2CapSense Best Practices
The Universal CapSense Controller was created using the best practices for CapSense layout. To
enable universality and development of the kit and its projects, certain design elements have been
changed from what is recommended for final products. Table 2-1 is a list of the design features in the
Universal CapSense Controller and what to change for final products.
