Product details
Overview
CY8C4024LQI-S401 from Infineon is a 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M0+ microcontroller with 24 KB flash, 4 KB SRAM, and integrated CAPSENSE™ capacitive sensing, operating at up to 48 MHz. It features two reconfigurable serial communication blocks (SCBs), five 16-bit TCPWMs, two low-power comparators, and supports 1.71–5.5 V supply for industrial human-interface applications.
For engineers reviewing the CY8C4024LQI-S401 datasheet, CY8C4024LQI-S401 pinout, CY8C4024LQI-S401 application, or CY8C4024LQI-S401 equivalent, key selection criteria include CAPSENSE™ SNR performance (>5:1), Deep Sleep current (2.5 µA), SCB runtime reconfiguration (I²C/SPI/UART), and GPIO flexibility across 36 pins in 40-pin QFN.
Technical Context
The device implements a single-core Arm® Cortex®-M0+ CPU with single-cycle multiply and 32-bit AHB-Lite bus interconnect. Memory subsystem includes 24 KB flash with read accelerator and 4 KB SRAM, plus 8 KB ROM for boot and system functions.
Analog resources include a sigma-delta capacitive sensing engine (CAPSENSE™ v2), two IDACs, two low-power comparators active in Deep Sleep, and programmable CT/SC analog blocks. Digital peripherals comprise five TCPWMs with center-aligned/PWM/kill-signal modes and two SCBs supporting I²C/SPI/UART on-the-fly reconfiguration.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar programmable mixed-signal MCU applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY8C4024LQI-S412 | Same die, 32 KB flash (vs. 24 KB), identical package and pinout | Higher firmware headroom for complex CAPSENSE™ + BLE stack integration | Select when future firmware expansion or dual-protocol (e.g., I²C + UART) concurrent operation is required |
| STM32G031F8P6 | Arm® Cortex®-M0+, 64 MHz, 64 KB flash, no integrated CAPSENSE™ or programmable analog | Requires external touch controller and signal-conditioning circuitry for capacitive sensing | Select when cost-sensitive BOM and standard peripheral-only requirements outweigh integrated analog flexibility |
Compared with CY8C4024LQI-S401, the S412 offers more flash for feature-rich UI firmware but same power/performance envelope, while the STM32G031 requires external components to match CAPSENSE™ capability - making the CY8C4024LQI-S401 optimal for rapid, compact, low-power touch designs.

FAQ
What development tools are supported for CY8C4024LQI-S401?
Infineon officially supports ModusToolbox™ software (cross-platform, Eclipse-based) and PSoC™ Creator (Windows-only IDE). Both provide schematic-driven configuration, CAPSENSE™ tuning tools, TCPWM and SCB configurators, and pre-verified peripheral drivers. MiniProg4 is the recommended programmer/debugger, and CY8CKIT-145-40XX serves as the reference evaluation kit.
Does CY8C4024LQI-S401 support hardware encryption or secure boot?
CY8C4024LQI-S401 does not include dedicated cryptographic accelerators or hardware secure boot. It provides flash protection bits and debug disable capability to prevent unauthorized access, but secure firmware validation must be implemented in software using ROM-resident bootloader APIs and external trusted execution environments if required.
Can all 36 GPIOs be used simultaneously for CAPSENSE™ electrodes?
No - while all 36 GPIOs are CAPSENSE™-capable, practical electrode count is limited by mutual capacitance coupling and scan time. The datasheet specifies up to 24 self-capacitance or 12 mutual-capacitance electrodes per device, depending on resolution and SNR targets. Layout and firmware tuning determine actual usable count in a given design.
Is the WCO (32.768 kHz crystal oscillator) mandatory for operation?
No - the WCO is optional. The device operates using its ±2% internal main oscillator (IMO) for full-speed operation. The WCO is required only for precision RTC functions or low-power wake-up events where sub-second accuracy or ultra-low Deep Sleep current (<1 µA) is needed; otherwise, the IMO suffices for general timing and SCB baud generation.
