Safety Information
The PSoC 4000S Prototyping Kit contains electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive
devices. Electrostatic charges readily accumulate on the human body and any
equipment, and can discharge without detection. Permanent damage may occur on
devices subjected to high-energy discharges. Proper ESD precautions are
recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality. Store unused
PSoC 4000S Prototyping kits in the protective shipping package.
End-of-Life/Product Recycling
This kit has an end-of life five years from the date of manufacture which is
encoded in bar code placed on the pack. Contact your nearest recycler for
discarding the kit.
Regulatory Compliance
The CY8CKIT-145-40XX PSoC® 4000S Prototyping Kit is intended for use as a development
platform for hardware or software in a laboratory environment. The board is an open system design,
which does not include a shielded enclosure. This may cause interference to other electrical or
electronic devices in close proximity. In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio
interference. In such cases, you may be required to take adequate preventive measur es. In addition,
this board should not be used near any medical equipment or RF devices.
Attaching additional wiring to this product or modifying the product operation from the factory default
may affect its performance and cause interference with other apparatus in the immediate vicinity. If
such interference is detected, suitable mitigating measures should be taken.
The PSoC 4000S Prototyping Kit, as shipped from the factory, has been ve rified to meet with the
requirements of CE as a Class A product.
General Safety Instructions
ESD Protection
ESD can damage boards and associated components. Cypress recommends that you perform
procedures only at an ESD workstation. If an ESD workstation is not available, use appropriate ESD
protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to a grounded metal object.
Handling Boards
PSoC 4000S Prototyping Kit is sensitive to ESD. Hold the board only by its edges. After removing
the board from its box, place it on a grounded, static-free surface. Use a conductive foam pad if
available. Do not slide the board over any surf ac e.

1. Introduction
Thank you for your interest in the CY8CKIT-145-40XX PSoC® 4000S Prototyping Kit. The
PSoC 4000S Prototyping Kit enables customers to evaluate and develop projects using the
PSoC 4000S device family.
PSoC 4000S device family is an expansion to the PSoC 4000 device family that offers more flash,
GPIOs, and programmable analog and digital blocks. PSoC 4000S device is a programmable
embedded system-on chip, integrating custom analog and digital peripheral functions, memory, and
an ARM
peripheral functions allow higher flexibility, in-field tuning of the design, and faster time-to-market.
The PSoC 4000S Prototyping Kit offers an open footprint breakout board to maximize the end utility
of the PSoC 4000S device. This kit provides a low-cost alternative to device samples while providing
a platform to easily develop and integrate the PSoC 4000S device into your end-system.
The board includes the following features:
■ 3 CapSense buttons
■ 5-Segment CapSense slider
■ LEDs to provide feedback
■ Onboard C
■ Bypass capacitor to ensure high-quality analog-to-digital conversions (No Load by default)
■ A push button to provide a simple user input
■ Load capacitors to connect the 32-kHz external crystal oscillator
■ Cypress EZ-BLE
■ 5-V operation

The PSoC 4000S Prototyping Kit also integrates Cypress KitProg2, which enables onboard
programming, debugging, and bridging functionality such as USB-UART and USB-I2C. KitProg2 is
used to program and debug the target PSoC 4000S/EZ-BLE PRoC device. The PSoC 4000S
Prototyping kit is designed to snap away the KitProg2 board from the PSoC 4000S target board.
You will use PSoC Creator™ to develop and debug your PSoC 4000S device projects. PSoC
Creator is Cypress’s standard integrated design environment (IDE). If you are new to PSoC Creator,
see the documentation on the PSoC Creator home page. You can also refer the application note
AN79953 - Getting Started with PSoC 4, which gives an introduction to the PSoC 4 device.

2. Software Installation
This chapter describes the steps to install the software tools and packages on a PC for using the
PSoC 4000S Prototyping Kit. This includes the IDE on which the projects will be built and used for
programming.
2.1 Before You Begin
To install Cypress software, you will require administrator privileges. However, they are not required
to run software that is already installed. Before you install the kit software, close any other Cypress
software that is currently running.
2.2 Install Software
Follow these steps to install the PSoC 4000S Prototyping Kit software:
1. Download the PSoC 4000S Prototyping Kit software from www.cypress.com/CY8CKIT-145. The
kit software is available in three different formats for download.
a. CY8CKIT-145-40XX Kit Only: This executable file installs only the kit contents, which include
kit code examples, hardware files, and user documents. This package can be used if all the
software prerequisites (listed in step 5) are installed on your PC.
b. CY8CKIT-145-40XX Kit Complete Setup: This installation package contains the file s rela ted
to the kit along with Cypress prerequisite software such as PSoC Creator and PSoC
Programmer . However, it does not include the Windows Installer or Microsoft .NET framework
packages. If these packages are not on your computer, the installer directs you to download
and install them from the Internet.
c. CY8CKIT-145-40XX DVD ISO: This file is a complete package, stored in a DVD-ROM image
format, which you can use to create a DVD or extract using an ISO extraction program such
as WinZip or WinRAR. The file can also be mounted like a virtual CD/DVD using virtual drive
programs such as Virtual CloneDrive and MagicISO. This file includes all the required
software, utilities, drivers, hardware files, and user documents.
2. If you have downloaded the ISO file, mount it on a virtual drive. Extract the ISO contents if you do
not have a virtual drive to mount. Double-click cyautorun.exe in the root directory of th e extracted
content or the mounted ISO if “Autorun from CD/DVD” is not enabled on the computer. The
installation window will appear automatically.
Note: If you are using the “Kit Complete Setup” or “Kit Only” file, then go to step 4 for installation.
