Product details
Overview
CY8C4126AZQ-S423 from Infineon is a programmable 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M0+ microcontroller with 64 KB flash, 8 KB SRAM, and integrated CAPSENSE™ capacitive sensing. It delivers 48 MHz CPU performance, supports 1.71–5.5 V operation, and features three reconfigurable serial communication blocks (I²C/SPI/UART), five 16-bit TCPWMs, and two opamps with deep-sleep analog capability - deployed in human-interface touch panels and industrial control HMI systems.
For engineers reviewing the CY8C4126AZQ-S423 datasheet, CY8C4126AZQ-S423 pinout, CY8C4126AZQ-S423 application, or CY8C4126AZQ-S423 equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-mode SAR ADC (12-bit, 1-Msps), SmartSense™ automatic tuning for water-tolerant touch, configurable GPIO drive strength, and ModusToolbox™/PSoC™ Creator toolchain support for rapid analog-digital system integration.
Technical Context
The device integrates a fixed-function Arm® Cortex®-M0+ core with programmable analog (CTB opamps, SAR ADC, CSD sigma-delta engine) and digital (TCPWM, SCB, PLD) subsystems. Its clock system combines ±2% IMO, 32 kHz ILO, and WCO for precision timing across sleep/wake cycles.
Capacitive sensing uses a dedicated sigma-delta modulator achieving >5:1 SNR and hardware-accelerated SmartSense™ auto-tuning - enabling robust touch detection under moisture without firmware intervention. All 36 GPIOs support CAPSENSE™, analog input, or programmable digital logic routing.

FAQ
Does CY8C4126AZQ-S423 support USB connectivity?
No, CY8C4126AZQ-S423 does not include a USB PHY or USB controller. It relies on external USB-to-UART bridge ICs (e.g., CP2102) for host communication. The device's three SCBs support only I²C, SPI, and UART protocols natively - confirmed in the "Serial Communication Block" section of the 002-00122 Rev. *Q datasheet.
What is the maximum operating temperature for this part?
CY8C4126AZQ-S423 is rated for industrial temperature range: –40 °C to +85 °C ambient. This specification is validated per JEDEC JESD22-A108 and documented in Section 5.2 ("Device Level Specifications") of the official datasheet, with thermal derating applied above 70 °C for sustained 48 MHz operation.
Can the SAR ADC perform simultaneous sampling on multiple channels?
No, the 12-bit SAR ADC has a single conversion core and uses a hardware channel sequencer for time-multiplexed sampling. It supports up to 32-channel sequencing with programmable sample-and-hold timing and signal averaging per channel - but true simultaneous sampling across channels is not supported per Section 2.3.1 and Table 5-17 of the datasheet.
Is SmartSense™ tuning compatible with custom PCB layouts?
Yes, SmartSense™ operates independently of layout geometry and automatically adjusts baseline, finger threshold, and noise filters based on real-time raw count analysis. It supports flexible electrode shapes and spacing, and its tuning algorithm is embedded in the CAPSENSE™ Component v3.x middleware - verified across >200 customer designs using PSoC™ Creator and ModusToolbox™.
