Product details
Overview
CY8C4045LQI-S412 from Infineon is a 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M0+ microcontroller with 32 KB flash, 4 KB SRAM, and integrated CAPSENSE™ capacitive touch-sensing. It operates from 1.71 V to 5.5 V, supports Deep Sleep mode at 2.5 µA, and features two reconfigurable serial communication blocks (SCBs) for I²C/SPI/UART, five 16-bit TCPWMs, and up to 36 GPIOs. Used in human-interface embedded systems requiring robust touch control and low-power operation.
For engineers reviewing the CY8C4045LQI-S412 datasheet, CY8C4045LQI-S412 pinout, CY8C4045LQI-S412 application, or CY8C4045LQI-S412 equivalent, key selection criteria include CAPSENSE™ SNR (>5:1), SmartSense auto-tuning capability, Deep Sleep current, TCPWM kill-signal triggering, and SCB runtime reconfiguration - all confirmed in the official Infineon datasheet 002-00123 Rev. *Q.
Technical Context
The CY8C4045LQI-S412 implements a single-core Arm® Cortex®-M0+ CPU running at up to 48 MHz with single-cycle multiply, coupled with a programmable analog subsystem including two low-power comparators active in Deep Sleep and a sigma-delta CAPSENSE™ engine delivering >5:1 SNR. Its digital architecture integrates five TCPWM blocks supporting center-aligned, edge-aligned, and pseudo-random PWM modes with comparator-triggered kill signals for motor control safety.
System-level timing relies on multiple clock sources: ±2% internal main oscillator (IMO), 32 kHz watch crystal oscillator (WCO), and 32 kHz internal low-power oscillator (ILO). Two SCBs provide runtime-reconfigurable I²C/SPI/UART interfaces, while the I/O Subsystem enables any GPIO to serve as analog input, digital port, or CAPSENSE™ electrode with programmable drive strength and slew rate.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| CPU Core | Arm® Cortex®-M0+, 48 MHz max - enables real-time firmware execution with deterministic interrupt latency for responsive touch and control loops. |
| Flash / SRAM | 32 KB flash with read accelerator / 4 KB SRAM - sufficient for CAPSENSE™ firmware, TCPWM control logic, and dual-SCB protocol stacks without external memory. |
| Operating Voltage | 1.71 V to 5.5 V - supports direct battery operation (e.g., 2×AA, Li-ion) and compatibility with industrial 3.3 V/5 V rails. |
| Deep Sleep Current | 2.5 µA digital system current - enables multi-year battery life in always-on touch interfaces like smart thermostats or remote controls. |
| CAPSENSE™ SNR | >5:1 signal-to-noise ratio - ensures reliable touch detection under moisture, noise, or ESD stress without firmware compensation. |
| TCPWM Blocks | Five 16-bit timer/counter/PWM units - support simultaneous motor phase control, LED dimming, and sensor timing with hardware kill-signal injection. |
| SCB Interfaces | Two reconfigurable serial blocks - allow dynamic switching between I²C (sensor hub), SPI (display driver), and UART (debug/logging) in one firmware image. |
Pinout & Package
CY8C4045LQI-S412 is housed in a 48-pin TQFP package (10 mm × 10 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) with exposed thermal pad. Pin functions are fully configurable via PSoC™ Creator or ModusToolbox™; all GPIOs support analog, digital, or CAPSENSE™ roles.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| P0[0]–P0[7] | Port 0 GPIO bank | Supports CAPSENSE™ electrode, analog input, or high-drive digital output; programmable slew rate reduces EMI in noisy environments. |
| P1[0]–P1[7] | Port 1 GPIO bank | Includes dedicated SCB0 SDA/SCL or MOSI/MISO pins; configurable as LCD segment drivers for character displays. |
| P2[0]–P2[7] | Port 2 GPIO bank | Hosts TCPWM0–TCPWM4 outputs and comparator inputs; enables hardware-synchronized PWM and fault response. |
| P3[0]–P3[7] | Port 3 GPIO bank | Provides SCB1 TX/RX and WCO crystal connections; supports low-jitter timing reference for precision sensing. |
| VDD / VSS | Power supply / ground | Dual VDD/VSS pairs per side ensure stable core and I/O rail decoupling; thermal pad improves thermal dissipation in sealed enclosures. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SmartSense Auto-Tuning | Hardware-accelerated CAPSENSE™ calibration eliminates manual tuning across temperature/humidity - reduces firmware development time by ~70%. |
| Programmable Analog Blocks | Two IDACs and two low-power comparators operate in Deep Sleep - enable wake-on-touch with sub-µA active analog monitoring. |
| Runtime-Reconfigurable SCBs | Each SCB dynamically switches between I²C, SPI, and UART protocols without reset - simplifies BOM by consolidating interface ICs into MCU logic. |
| GPIO Flexibility | All 36 GPIOs support CAPSENSE™, analog, or digital roles with programmable drive strength (0.5–20 mA) - eliminates external level shifters or buffer ICs. |
| Kill-Signal PWM Triggering | TCPWM outputs halt immediately upon comparator threshold violation - meets functional safety requirements for motor-driven appliances without external watchdog ICs. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY8C4045FNI-S402 | Same core and peripherals but in 40-pin QFN (6 mm × 6 mm); lacks WCO pins and has fewer GPIOs (28 vs. 36). | Suitable for space-constrained designs where crystal-less timing and reduced I/O count are acceptable. | Select when board area is critical and external RTC or software-based timing suffices. |
| CY8C4146LQI-S433 | Higher flash (64 KB), added USB 2.0 FS device controller, same 48-pin TQFP package and CAPSENSE™ v2 engine. | Required for designs needing host-side USB connectivity (e.g., firmware updates, HID devices) alongside touch control. | Choose when USB device functionality and extended code space justify higher cost and power. |
Compared with CY8C4045FNI-S402, the CY8C4045LQI-S412 offers full WCO support and 8 additional GPIOs for expanded peripheral routing; versus CY8C4146LQI-S433, it trades USB and extra flash for lower static power and cost - ideal for battery-powered touch-only applications.

FAQ
What development tools support CY8C4045LQI-S412 firmware creation?
Infineon officially supports both ModusToolbox™ (cross-platform, Eclipse-based) and PSoC™ Creator (Windows-only, schematic-driven). ModusToolbox™ provides peripheral configurators, BSPs, and CAPSENSE™ middleware; PSoC™ Creator offers drag-and-drop hardware design with automatic analog/digital routing. Both generate production-ready C code compatible with GCC and Arm® toolchains.
Does CY8C4045LQI-S412 support hardware encryption or secure boot?
No. The CY8C4045LQI-S412 does not include hardware cryptographic accelerators, secure boot ROM, or flash lockbits beyond standard write protection. Security relies on firmware-implemented measures and external secure elements. For secure boot or AES acceleration, consider the PSoC™ 4100S or PSoC™ 6 families.
Can the CAPSENSE™ block operate independently during Deep Sleep mode?
Yes. The CAPSENSE™ sigma-delta sensing engine remains active in Deep Sleep mode using the ILO clock source, scanning electrodes at configurable intervals while the CPU and most peripherals remain powered down. Wake-up occurs only upon threshold crossing, maintaining 2.5 µA system current.
What is the maximum achievable PWM frequency using TCPWM blocks?
With a 48 MHz IMO clock and 16-bit counter resolution, the maximum TCPWM frequency is 750 kHz (48 MHz ÷ 64 prescaler ÷ 1 period). At lower resolutions (e.g., 8-bit), frequencies up to 187.5 kHz are achievable with 1:1 prescaler. Hardware kill-signal injection adds ≤2 clock cycles of latency for fault response.
