Product details
Overview
CY8C4125AXI-473 from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress) is a 32-bit Arm® Cortex™-M0 programmable system-on-chip (PSoC® 4100 family) integrating MCU, reconfigurable analog/digital blocks, 12-bit SAR ADC, two opamps, and two SCBs supporting I²C/SPI/UART. It operates from 1.71 V to 5.5 V, delivers 24 MHz CPU performance, and supports CapSense® capacitive sensing in industrial HMI applications.
For engineers reviewing the CY8C4125AXI-473 datasheet, CY8C4125AXI-473 pinout, CY8C4125AXI-473 application, or CY8C4125AXI-473 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 32 kB flash / 4 kB SRAM memory map, Deep Sleep current of 20 nA, 48-pin TQFP package with full GPIO reconfigurability, and integrated SmartSense™ auto-tuning for robust touch interfaces.
Technical Context
The device implements a single-layer AHB-Lite interconnect between Cortex-M0 CPU, SRAM, flash with Read Accelerator, and peripheral subsystems including TCPWM, SCB, CTBm, and SAR ADC. Clocking relies on IMO (24 MHz ±2%) and ILO (32.768 kHz), with glitch-free switching and hardware-controlled power mode transitions.
Analog resources include two rail-to-rail opamps configurable as buffers, comparators, or ADC input drivers; a 12-bit 806 ksps SAR ADC with differential input support and channel sequencer; and two low-power comparators active in Deep Sleep. Digital logic is implemented via programmable DSI and fixed-function peripherals with automatic routing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| CPU Core | Arm Cortex-M0, 24 MHz max, single-cycle 32-bit multiply - enables deterministic real-time control and binary upward compatibility with Cortex-M3/M4. |
| Flash / SRAM | 32 kB flash with Read Accelerator / 4 kB SRAM - supports firmware + bootloader + configuration data without external memory in compact embedded designs. |
| ADC | 12-bit SAR, 806 ksps, differential/single-ended modes, channel sequencer with signal averaging - enables high-fidelity sensor acquisition with noise rejection in motor control or environmental monitoring. |
| Opamps | Two rail-to-rail opamps with Comparator mode and ADC input buffering - allows flexible analog front-end design including precision signal conditioning and zero-crossing detection. |
| Low-Power Modes | 20 nA Stop Mode, Deep Sleep with GPIO wakeup, Hibernate with SRAM retention - extends battery life in portable or energy-harvested IoT endpoints. |
| CapSense® | Cypress CapSense Sigma-Delta (CSD) with >5:1 SNR and SmartSense™ auto-tuning - delivers water-tolerant, production-ready touch buttons/sliders without manual calibration. |
| SCBs | Two serial communication blocks, runtime-reconfigurable as I²C/SPI/UART - simplifies interface adaptation across sensor fusion, display, or host communication requirements. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 48-pin TQFP (7 mm × 7 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), RoHS-compliant, rated for –40 °C to +105 °C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD | Main supply input | 1.71–5.5 V system power; powers digital core, analog blocks, and I/O banks. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar programmable mixed-signal microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY8C4025LQI-431 | Lower memory (16 kB flash / 2 kB SRAM), no CapSense® CSD block, 32-pin QFN package | Suitable for cost-sensitive, non-touch applications with simpler analog needs | Select when CapSense® and >32 kB code space are unnecessary and footprint is constrained. |
| STM32F072RBT6 | ARM Cortex-M0+, 48 MHz, 128 kB flash, but discrete analog peripherals require external opamps/ADCs | Better for high-throughput digital processing where analog integration is secondary | Choose when higher clock speed and larger memory outweigh benefits of integrated analog reconfigurability. |
Compared with CY8C4125AXI-473, CY8C4025LQI-431 trades CapSense® and memory for lower cost and smaller size, while STM32F072RBT6 offers greater raw compute headroom at the expense of analog integration and design consolidation.

FAQ
Does CY8C4125AXI-473 support external crystal oscillators?
Yes. The device provides dedicated XTAL_IN and XTAL_OUT pins supporting external crystals from 1 MHz to 33 MHz. However, it also integrates an internal main oscillator (IMO) at 24 MHz ±2% and internal low-power oscillator (ILO) at 32.768 kHz, making external crystals optional for most applications requiring moderate timing accuracy.
What debug interface does CY8C4125AXI-473 use?
CY8C4125AXI-473 uses the Arm Serial Wire Debug (SWD) interface with two-wire connectivity (SWDIO and SWCLK). It supports full on-chip debugging, flash programming, and trace capabilities via standard tools like MiniProg3 or third-party JTAG/SWD adapters compatible with Arm Cortex-M0.
Can all GPIO pins be used for CapSense® sensing?
Yes. All 36 GPIO pins support CapSense® functionality, including mutual-capacitance and self-capacitance configurations. The device's CapSense Sigma-Delta (CSD) block and SmartSense™ auto-tuning algorithm operate across any pin combination, enabling flexible layout and robust water-tolerant touch designs without dedicated sensor pins.
Is flash protection reversible after enabling Kill mode?
No. Once Kill mode is activated, flash memory becomes permanently inaccessible for external read, write, or erase operations - including debug interface access. This irreversible state prevents firmware extraction or partial erasure attacks but also precludes failure analysis or recovery. Use only after final production firmware validation.
