Product details
Overview
CY8C3244LTI-123T from Infineon Technologies (acquired Cypress Semiconductor) is a programmable 8-bit PSoC® 3 system-on-chip integrating an 8051 CPU core, configurable analog/digital peripherals, 64 KB flash, 8 KB RAM, and CapSense® capacitive sensing capability. It operates from 1.71–5.5 V, supports up to 50 MHz clocking via internal PLL, and delivers 200 nA deep-sleep current with RAM retention-enabling battery-powered human-interface applications such as touch-enabled medical monitors and industrial HMI panels.
For engineers reviewing the CY8C3244LTI-123T datasheet, CY8C3244LTI-123T pinout, CY8C3244LTI-123T application, or CY8C3244LTI-123T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 48-pin SSOP package, 29 GPIOs with CapSense support, integrated Delta-Sigma ADC (12-bit, ±1 LSB INL), USB 2.0 FS interface, and UDB-based reconfigurable digital logic for custom protocol implementation.
Technical Context
The CY8C3244LTI-123T implements a single-cycle 8051 CPU core with 32 interrupt inputs and a 24-channel DMA controller, enabling real-time peripheral data movement without CPU intervention. Its digital subsystem uses 16–24 Universal Digital Blocks (UDBs) to synthesize UART, SPI, I²C, PWM, PRS, CRC, and quadrature decoders-all routable to any GPIO.
Analog resources include an 8–12-bit Delta-Sigma ADC (66 dB SINAD, <100 µV offset), dual voltage comparators, 8-bit DAC (1 MSPS VDAC / 8 MSPS IDAC), and 1.024 V ±1% internal reference. All 29 GPIOs support CapSense® with up to 62 sensor nodes, segment LCD drive (46×16), and flexible input thresholds for comparator reuse.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| CPU Core | Single-cycle 8051 running up to 50 MHz; enables deterministic real-time control with low-latency ISR entry. |
| Flash / RAM / EEPROM | 64 KB flash (with ECC support), 8 KB SRAM, 2 KB EEPROM; sufficient for bootloader + application + persistent calibration data. |
| ADC Performance | 12-bit Delta-Sigma ADC with ±1 LSB INL, 66 dB SINAD, <100 µV offset; suitable for precision sensor signal acquisition. |
| DAC Speed & Type | 8-bit VDAC at 1 MSPS or IDAC at 8 MSPS; enables fast analog waveform generation or LED current control. |
| CapSense Channels | Supports up to 62 self- or mutual-capacitance sensors; allows full-touch keypad, slider, and proximity detection in one chip. |
| USB Interface | Full-speed USB 2.0 (12 Mbps) with on-die PHY; eliminates external transceiver and simplifies HID or CDC device implementation. |

Pinout & Package
Package: 48-pin SSOP (0.635 mm pitch), RoHS-compliant, body size 15.4 × 7.6 mm. Thermal pad not present; standard leaded package for through-hole or fine-pitch reflow assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDDIO0–VDDIO3 | I/O power domains | Four independent 1.71–5.5 V supply rails; enable mixed-voltage interfacing (e.g., 3.3 V MCU logic + 5 V actuator drivers) without level shifters. |
| P0[0]–P0[7], P1[0]–P1[7], P2[3]–P2[7] | Configurable GPIO | All 29 pins support CapSense®, analog routing, LCD segment/com drive, and digital logic; each pin individually programmable for drive strength, slew rate, and interrupt edge. |
| VDDA / VSSA | Analog power/ground | Separate analog supply domain isolates sensitive ADC/DAC references from digital noise; mandatory for <1 LSB ADC error. |
| P15[0]/P15[1] | Crystal oscillator input/output | Supports 4–25 MHz external crystal; feeds IMO/PLL for precise timing-critical functions like USB frame sync or motor commutation. |
| P15[6]/P15[7] | USB D+/D− | Dedicated full-speed USB PHY pins; require 27 Ω series resistors and proper ESD protection per USB-IF spec. |
| P1[3]/P1[2]/P1[4]/P1[5] | JTAG/SWD debug | 4-wire JTAG or 2-wire SWD interface; enables non-intrusive debugging, flash programming, and real-time trace via SWV. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Reconfigurable UDB array (24 blocks) | Enables hardware-level customization of digital protocols (e.g., proprietary LIN variant or multi-channel SPI daisy chain) without FPGA cost or complexity. |
| Integrated CapSense® engine | Offloads touch processing from CPU; supports gesture recognition, waterproofing, and proximity wake-up using only firmware configuration-not external ICs. |
| Programmable clock tree (12 dividers) | Allows independent clocking of ADC, USB, PWM, and CPU domains-eliminating external clock generators and reducing BOM count. |
| On-chip boost regulator (0.5–5.0 V) | Permits direct single-cell (1.2 V NiMH) or energy-harvesting (e.g., solar) input; VBOOST output can power external displays or sensors. |
| Hardware I²C (1 Mbps) + USB FS | Provides dual high-speed communication paths: I²C for local sensor hub, USB for PC connectivity-both implemented in silicon, not bit-banged. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar programmable SoC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY8C3246LTI-125T | Same CY8C32 family; 68-QFN package, 48 GPIOs, 8 KB RAM, identical peripherals but higher pin count and thermal performance. | Better suited for designs requiring >29 GPIOs or enhanced thermal dissipation in compact enclosures. | Select when board space permits QFN and additional I/O or analog channels are needed. |
| CY8C4014LQI-422 | PSoC 4 (ARM Cortex-M0), 48-QFN, 32 KB flash, 4 KB RAM, no USB FS, no boost regulator, lower power (150 nA hibernate). | Targeted at cost-sensitive, USB-free applications where ARM toolchain preference or lower active power dominates. | Choose for new designs prioritizing ARM ecosystem, lower BOM cost, and absence of USB/boost requirements. |
Compared with CY8C3244LTI-123T, the CY8C3246LTI-125T offers expanded I/O and thermal headroom in QFN, while the CY8C4014LQI-422 trades USB/boost/analog depth for ARM compatibility and ultra-low static power-making it viable only where those features are expendable.

FAQ
Does CY8C3244LTI-123T support USB device enumeration without external crystal?
Yes. The device integrates a certified USB 2.0 Full-Speed peripheral interface that operates using its internal 3–24 MHz IMO (Internal Main Oscillator) with ±2% accuracy at 3 MHz. This eliminates the need for an external 48 MHz crystal or oscillator in most HID and CDC applications, reducing BOM cost and board space.
What is the maximum number of CapSense® sensors supported on this part?
CY8C3244LTI-123T supports up to 62 capacitive sensing nodes using its dedicated CapSense® subsystem. This includes both self-capacitance (button/slider) and mutual-capacitance (gesture/proximity) configurations, all processed in hardware with automatic baseline tracking and noise rejection-no CPU cycles required during sensing.
Can the internal Delta-Sigma ADC achieve 12-bit effective resolution in noisy industrial environments?
Yes. The ADC achieves 12-bit ENOB under specified conditions: 66 dB SINAD, ±1 LSB INL, and <100 µV offset. In industrial settings, its performance is maintained using separate VDDA/VSSA rails, programmable sample averaging (up to 64x), and synchronous sampling triggered by hardware timers-features confirmed in the CY8C32 datasheet Section 8.2.
Is the boost regulator capable of powering external circuitry?
Yes. The integrated synchronous boost converter generates VBOOST (programmable 2.5–5.0 V) from inputs as low as 0.5 V. VBOOST can source up to 100 mA and is explicitly intended to power external components such as LCD bias supplies, op-amps, or sensor excitation circuits-as documented in Section 6.2 of the CY8C32 datasheet.
