Product details
Overview
CY8C4125PVE-S422T from Infineon is an AEC-Q100 Grade 2 automotive-qualified 32-bit PSoC™ Automotive 4100S microcontroller featuring an Arm® Cortex®-M0+ CPU running at 48 MHz, 64 KB flash, 8 KB SRAM, integrated CAPSENSE™ capacitive sensing with >5:1 SNR, and three reconfigurable serial communication blocks (I²C/SPI/UART/LIN). It targets body control modules and touch-enabled automotive interior systems.
For engineers reviewing the CY8C4125PVE-S422T datasheet, CY8C4125PVE-S422T pinout, CY8C4125PVE-S422T application, or CY8C4125PVE-S422T equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q100 S-grade (–40°C to +105°C) operation, Deep Sleep current of 2.5 µA with active analog, programmable CTB opamps with ADC input buffering, and TCPWM kill-signal triggering for motor safety logic.
Technical Context
The device implements a tightly coupled mixed-signal architecture where the Arm® Cortex®-M0+ core interfaces directly with configurable analog (CTB, SAR ADC, CSD, IDAC) and digital (TCPWM, SCB, PLD) peripherals via a programmable interconnect matrix. All analog blocks retain functionality in Deep Sleep mode, enabling always-on capacitive touch detection with <2.5 µA system current.
Its three Serial Communication Blocks (SCBs) support runtime reconfiguration between I²C master/slave, SPI master/slave, UART, and LIN slave modes - each with independent clocking and DMA support. The five TCPWM blocks provide center-aligned PWM, pseudo-random dithering, and comparator-triggered hardware kill signals for functional safety-critical timing control.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| CPU Core | Arm® Cortex®-M0+ @ 48 MHz - deterministic real-time execution with Thumb-2 instruction set and NVIC interrupt controller. |
| Flash / SRAM | 64 KB flash with read accelerator; 8 KB SRAM - supports firmware updates and real-time data logging without external memory. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +105°C (AEC-Q100 Grade 2 S-grade) - qualified for under-hood and cabin-mounted automotive ECUs. |
| Deep Sleep Current | 2.5 µA with active analog - enables always-on capacitive touch wake-up while preserving battery life in parked vehicle states. |
| SAR ADC | 12-bit, 1 Msps, differential/single-ended, sequencer with signal averaging - supports high-accuracy sensor monitoring (e.g., temperature, pressure) with noise rejection. |
| CAPSENSE™ SNR | >5:1 signal-to-noise ratio with water tolerance - delivers reliable touch detection on wet or contaminated surfaces in automotive interiors. |
| TCPWM Blocks | Five 16-bit timer/counter/PWM units with comparator-triggered kill signals - enables safe motor control with hardware-enforced fault response <1 µs latency. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 40-pin QFN (7 mm × 7 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), thermally enhanced with exposed pad for automotive thermal reliability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDDIO0–VDDIO3 | I/O power domains | Four independent 1.71–5.5 V I/O banks enable mixed-voltage interfacing (e.g., 3.3 V MCU logic + 5 V analog sensors). |
| P0[0]–P0[7], P1[0]–P1[7], etc. | Programmable GPIO | All 40 pins support CAPSENSE™, analog input/output, or digital logic - no fixed-function pin constraints. |
| SWDCLK / SWDIO | Debug interface | Two-pin ARM Serial Wire Debug interface - enables in-circuit programming and real-time trace without dedicated JTAG pins. |
| XRES | External reset input | Active-low asynchronous reset with internal pull-up - supports fail-safe system recovery triggered by external watchdog or power supervisor. |
| VREFB | Analog reference buffer | Internal buffered reference for SAR ADC and comparators - eliminates need for external precision voltage reference. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Reconfigurable CTB opamps | Two continuous-time blocks supporting opamp, comparator, and ADC input buffer modes - reduces BOM count by eliminating discrete signal-conditioning ICs. |
| CSD-based CAPSENSE™ | Capacitive sigma-delta sensing with automatic hardware tuning - achieves production-ready touch performance without manual calibration or firmware tuning. |
| Runtime-reconfigurable SCBs | Three serial blocks dynamically switch between I²C/SPI/UART/LIN protocols - simplifies multi-interface ECU designs and enables field-upgradable communication topologies. |
| Deep Sleep analog retention | Opamps, comparators, and CSD remain active at 2.5 µA system current - enables low-power occupancy detection and proximity wake-up in battery-sensitive applications. |
| TCPWM kill-signal trigger | Hardware comparator output directly disables PWM outputs within one clock cycle - meets ASIL-B timing requirements for motor drive fault containment. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar automotive microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Infineon CY8C4126PVI-S433 | Same PSoC™ 4100S family, 64 KB flash, but 48-pin TQFP package and higher 128 KB flash option available; identical IP blocks and AEC-Q100 S-grade rating. | Supports larger BOMs requiring more GPIOs or external crystal routing flexibility; less suitable for space-constrained QFN-only layouts. | Select when board layout requires TQFP mechanical compatibility or future scalability to 128 KB flash variants. |
| NXP S32K142WHT0MLHT | ARM Cortex-M4F core, 112 MHz, CAN FD, Ethernet AVB, but no integrated CAPSENSE™ or programmable analog; requires external touch controller. | Targeted at gateway and powertrain applications needing CAN FD and higher compute; lacks native capacitive sensing capability. | Select only if CAN FD connectivity or floating-point math acceleration is mandatory and touch sensing is handled externally. |
Compared with CY8C4125PVE-S422T, CY8C4126PVI-S433 offers identical mixed-signal features in a different package, while S32K142WHT0MLHT trades programmable analog and CAPSENSE™ for CAN FD and higher CPU performance - making it unsuitable for touch-centric body electronics without added components.

FAQ
Is CY8C4125PVE-S422T qualified for automotive use?
Yes. It is AEC-Q100 qualified to Grade 2 (–40°C to +105°C), with full documentation including stress test reports, failure-in-time (FIT) data, and PPAP support packages available from Infineon. The device undergoes accelerated lifetime testing per AEC-Q100 Rev G specifications, including HTOL, TC, and UHAST.
Does it support CAN bus communication?
No. CY8C4125PVE-S422T does not include a CAN controller or physical layer. It supports I²C, SPI, UART, and LIN slave communication via its three reconfigurable Serial Communication Blocks (SCBs). For CAN-based systems, external transceivers or companion MCUs are required.
What development tools are supported?
ModusToolbox™ 3.x is the official IDE, providing PDL-based peripheral drivers, CAPSENSE™ Tuner GUI, and pre-certified safety libraries for ASIL-B functions. Hardware debugging uses KitProg3 on CY8CKIT-042-BLE or CY8CKIT-044 PSoC™ 4100S Automotive kits - both support SWD and power measurement.
Can it operate in Deep Sleep while detecting touch?
Yes. The CSD block, CTB opamps, and low-power comparators remain fully functional in Deep Sleep mode with total system current of 2.5 µA. Touch events generate interrupts that wake the Cortex-M0+ core, enabling ultra-low-power occupancy detection in parked vehicle scenarios.
