Product details
Overview
CY8C24123A-24SXI from Cypress Semiconductor is a programmable 8-bit Harvard-architecture PSoC® SoC featuring an M8C CPU core running at up to 24 MHz, 4 KB flash, 256 bytes SRAM, and integrated analog/digital blocks including six analog and four digital PSoC blocks. It operates from 2.4 V to 5.25 V (or down to 1.0 V with on-chip switch-mode pump), supports industrial temperature range (–40 °C to +85 °C), and targets embedded control applications requiring mixed-signal reconfigurability.
For engineers reviewing the CY8C24123A-24SXI datasheet, CY8C24123A-24SXI pinout, CY8C24123A-24SXI application, or CY8C24123A-24SXI equivalent, key selection criteria include its 28-pin SOIC package, 24 MHz max clock speed, 25-mA GPIO sink capability, ±5% internal oscillator accuracy, and support for ISSP in-system programming - all critical for low-voltage sensor interface and motor control designs.
Technical Context
The CY8C24123A-24SXI implements a fixed-function M8C CPU core with Harvard architecture, supporting 8×8 multiply and 32-bit accumulate operations. Its digital system comprises four 8-bit digital PSoC blocks configurable as timers, PWMs, UART, SPI, I²C (slave/multi-master), CRC, and PRS modules - all routable to any GPIO via global digital interconnect.
The analog system integrates six rail-to-rail analog PSoC blocks enabling ADCs up to 14-bit resolution, DACs up to 9-bit, PGAs, programmable filters, and comparators. Analog inputs are available on eight GPIOs (plus four restricted), with two 30 mA analog outputs supported across all pins - all managed through dedicated analog muxing and reference circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| CPU Core | M8C 8-bit Harvard architecture, 24 MHz max operation - enables deterministic real-time control with 4 MIPS throughput |
| Flash Memory | 4 KB program flash with 50,000 erase/write cycles - supports field firmware updates and IP protection via 64-byte block locking |
| SRAM | 256 bytes data RAM - sufficient for small embedded state machines and sensor buffer storage |
| Analog Blocks | Six configurable analog PSoC blocks - provide flexible signal conditioning paths including PGA, comparator, filter, and ADC/DAC functions |
| Digital Blocks | Four 8-bit digital PSoC blocks - combinable into 8-/16-/24-/32-bit peripherals like PWM, UART, SPI, I²C, and CRC generators |
| GPIO Drive | 25 mA sink / 10 mA source per pin, with pull-up/pull-down/strong/open-drain modes - eliminates need for external level-shifting or buffering in many interfaces |
| Operating Voltage | 2.4 V to 5.25 V supply, or 1.0 V minimum with on-chip SMP - enables direct battery operation (e.g., single Li-ion or two alkaline cells) |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit), 300 mil width, JEDEC MS-012AC compliant. Pinout validated per Cypress datasheet 38-12028 Rev. *W, Page 12 (28-Pin Part Pinout).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD | Power supply input | Main supply rail (2.4–5.25 V); powers core, analog, and digital systems |
| VSS | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal circuits and I/O drivers |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| In-system serial programming (ISSP) | Enables firmware updates without removing the device from PCB using SWD interface and MiniProg3 programmer |
| Configurable analog blocks | Each of six analog blocks can be independently configured as PGA, comparator, filter, ADC, or DAC - reducing external component count |
| Global digital interconnect | Allows any digital peripheral output to route to any GPIO pin - decouples hardware design from fixed peripheral pin mapping |
| On-chip voltage reference | Integrated precision bandgap reference supports stable ADC/DAC operation independent of VDD variation |
| User-configurable LVD | Programmable low-voltage detection thresholds (1.62 V to 4.5 V in steps) enable graceful shutdown or brown-out recovery |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar programmable mixed-signal SoC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY8C24223A-24SXI | Same core and architecture, but includes 8 KB flash and 512 bytes SRAM - double memory capacity | Preferred for firmware-intensive applications requiring larger code space or extended data buffers | Select when >4 KB flash or >256 bytes SRAM is required; otherwise CY8C24123A-24SXI offers cost advantage |
| CY8C24423A-24SXI | Same family, but adds two additional analog PSoC blocks (total eight) and one extra digital block (total five) | Suitable for designs needing more concurrent analog signal chains (e.g., multi-channel sensor fusion) | Choose only if additional analog/digital resource count is mandatory; not a drop-in replacement due to pinout and resource allocation differences |
Compared with CY8C24223A-24SXI and CY8C24423A-24SXI, the CY8C24123A-24SXI provides optimal balance of analog/digital resources and memory for cost-sensitive, single-sensor or basic motor control applications - avoiding over-provisioning while maintaining full PSoC Designer toolchain compatibility.

FAQ
Is CY8C24123A-24SXI compatible with PSoC Designer v5.4?
Yes. CY8C24123A-24SXI is fully supported in PSoC Designer v5.4 and later versions. The device appears in the project creation wizard under "CY8C24x23A" family, and all user modules - including CapSense, ADC, PWM, and I²C - are validated for this part. Firmware generated with v5.4 is binary-compatible with earlier revisions of the silicon.
Does CY8C24123A-24SXI support true hardware I²C master mode?
Yes. The device implements full I²C master, slave, and multi-master functionality up to 400 kHz, using dedicated digital block resources. Master mode supports automatic START/STOP generation, ACK/NACK handling, and clock stretching - verified in AN2224 and PSoC Designer's I²C User Module documentation.
What is the maximum achievable ADC resolution and sample rate on CY8C24123A-24SXI?
The device supports up to 14-bit SAR ADC resolution using the Decimator module with oversampling. At full 14-bit resolution, typical sample rate is 1.5 kSPS; at 12-bit, it reaches 6 kSPS. These values are measured with internal 1.2 V reference and PGA gain = 1, as specified in Section "ADC Electrical Characteristics" of datasheet 38-12028.
Can CY8C24123A-24SXI operate reliably at 1.8 V supply?
No. The absolute minimum operating voltage is 2.4 V for standard operation. While the on-chip switch-mode pump (SMP) enables operation down to 1.0 V, that mode requires specific configuration (SMP enabled, VDD ≥ 2.4 V for startup, then regulated internal rail), and is not rated for 1.8 V sustained operation. Datasheet Section "DC Electrical Characteristics" specifies 2.4 V as the guaranteed lower limit.
