Product details
Overview
CY8C24123-24PI from Cypress MicroSystems is a PSoC™ (Programmable System-on-Chip) mixed-signal array featuring an M8C 8-bit CPU core, 2 KB flash program memory, 256 bytes SRAM, and configurable analog/digital user modules including op-amps, comparators, ADCs, and PWM generators. It operates at up to 24 MHz system clock, supports 5 V operation, and targets embedded control applications with integrated signal conditioning and logic.
For engineers reviewing the CY8C24123-24PI datasheet, CY8C24123-24PI pinout, CY8C24123-24PI application, or CY8C24123-24PI equivalent, key selection criteria include flash/SRAM size, analog module configurability, 5 V I/O tolerance, IMO/ECO/PLL clocking options, and PSoC Designer toolchain compatibility.
Technical Context
The CY8C24123-24PI integrates a hardwired M8C CPU core with programmable analog and digital blocks routed via a switch matrix. Its architecture enables dynamic reconfiguration of peripherals-including dual 8-bit ADCs with 12-bit resolution in successive approximation mode, rail-to-rail op-amps, and 8-bit PWM with dead-time insertion-without external components.
It features three independent clock sources: a factory-trimmed 24 MHz Internal Main Oscillator (IMO), a 32 kHz External Crystal Oscillator (ECO), and a low-power Internal Low-Speed Oscillator (ILO). The PLL supports frequency multiplication for higher-speed operation while maintaining ECO-based timing accuracy.

FAQ
Is CY8C24123-24PI supported by current PSoC Designer software?
Yes. PSoC Designer v5.4 is the final officially supported IDE for CY8C24xxx devices. It provides full schematic-based design entry, device configuration, and debug via SWD. No newer Cypress tools (PSoC Creator or ModusToolbox) support this legacy M8C-based family.
Does CY8C24123-24PI support in-system programming (ISP)?
Yes. Programming is performed via the SWD pin using a MiniProg1 or compatible programmer. Firmware updates can be executed in-circuit without removing the device, provided VDD is stable and RESET is accessible during programming sequences.
What is the maximum operating temperature for CY8C24123-24PI in PDIP package?
The CY8C24123-24PI is rated for industrial temperature range: –40 °C to +85 °C ambient. Thermal performance is validated per JEDEC JESD51-2 with natural convection; no heatsink required at ≤10 mA average I/O current and 24 MHz operation.
Can analog blocks operate independently while the CPU is in Deep Sleep mode?
Yes. Analog blocks-including the ADC, op-amps, and comparators-can remain active and generate interrupts during Deep Sleep. The ILO or ECO continues running to clock analog timing, enabling autonomous sensor wake-up without CPU intervention.
