Table 2-1. Code Example in PSoC Creator
Project Description
This code example shows how PSoC 6 MCU can be used to
record audio data, store it, and play it back. It uses a digital
microphone with the PDM/PCM hardware block. All the audio
data captured by the microphone is stored in an external flash
CE222221_TFT_VoiceRecorder
memory. After the recording is completed, you can play the audio
data over I2S, which interfaces with an audio codec. You can
record/play/pause/resume with CapSense buttons. You control
the audio volume with a CapSense slider. The TFT LCD displays
the current state of the voice recorder, the volume, and the time of
the record/play.

3. WICED
3.1 Introduction
This chapter describes the steps to install the WICED software tools and packages required to use
the PSoC 6 WiFi-BT Pioneer Kit for developing WiFi applications. This chapter describes basic quick
start guidelines of the WICED-based example project that can be used for further development
purposes.
3.2 Before You Begin
To install Cypress software, you will require administrator privileges. However, they are not required
to run the software that is already installed. Before you install the kit software, close any other
Cypress software that is currently running.
3.3 Install WICED
The CY8CKIT-062-WiFi-BT kit needs the WICED 6.1 (or later) software to be installed in your system. WICED 6.1 needs separate download and installation.
1. Download and install WICED Studio 6.1 (or later) from www.cypress.com/products/wiced-soft-
ware.
2. Select two folders, one for the IDE and the other for the SDK. The SDK folder contains the
Framework for developing WiFi applications.

3.4 Programming and Debugging in WICED
3.4.1 Building and Programming a Project for CY8CKIT-062-WiFi-BT in WICED Studio IDE
To build and program a project for CY8CKIT-062-WiFi-BT, perform the following steps:
1. To open the WICED IDE on the Windows PC, go to Start > All Programs > Cypress > WICED-
Studio.
2. Select 43xxx_Wi-Fi in the WICED Target selector drop-down box as shown in Figure 1-7. Build-
ing a project requires a corresponding make target, located in the Make Target window. All applications go under the apps directory. The make target path will contain the directory hierarchy
starting from apps with directory names separated by a period. The project name is followed by a
hyphen and then the platform name. Finally, the actions to be performed after the build are specified, such as download and run. For example, to build, download, and run the application scan
which exists in apps\snip\scan, create the following make target:
snip.scan-CY8CKIT_062 download_apps download run
This project will periodically scan for Wi-Fi access points and will list them using the serial-to-USB
connection on the kit.
Perform these steps to create the make target, build, program, and test application scan:
PSoC® 6 WiFi-BT Pioneer Kit Guide, Document Number. 002-22677 Rev. *E 25
3. Right-click 43xxx_Wi-Fi in the Make Target window as shown in Figure 3-2 and click New.
Figure 3-2. Creating New Make Target
WICED
4. Enter snip.scan-CY8CKIT_062 download_apps download run in the Target name field
and click OK.
Note: The list of all commands that can be provided in the Make target is listed in <WICED-SDK
installation directory>/ 43xxx_Wi-Fi/Makefile.
snip.scan-CY8CKIT_062 download_apps download run indicates the following:
a. snip = Directory inside apps folder
b. scan = Sub-directory and name of the application to be built. For example, to build the con-
sole application under test directory in apps, then use test.console instead of snip.scan.
c. CY8CKIT_062 = Board/platform name
d. download_apps = Download application resources into QSPI Flash
e. download = Indicates download to target
f. run = Resets the target and starts execution
5. Double-click (alternately, right-click and select Build Target) the Clean Make Target to remove
any output from the previous build. It is recommended to do Make clean when any new files are
added or removed to the corresponding Target.
Note: Before executing the next step, ensure that you connect the CY8CKIT-062-WiFi-BT kit to
the same PC through the Type-C USB cable connected to the J10 port. See 4.3.3 Kit Enumera-
tion and Programming Modes of KitProg2 to ensure that the kit is successfully enumerated and
Port Selection is set to CMSIS-DAP mode.
