Product details
Overview
CY8C4146AZE-S455T from Infineon is an AEC-Q100 Grade-S (–40°C to +105°C) automotive-qualified PSoC™ 4100S Plus microcontroller featuring a 48-MHz Arm® Cortex®-M0+ CPU, 128 KB flash, 16 KB SRAM, and integrated CAPSENSE™ capacitive touch-sensing with SmartSense auto-tuning. It includes five reconfigurable serial communication blocks (I²C/SPI/UART/LIN), a CAN 2.0B controller with TTCAN support, and eight 16-bit TCPWMs - deployed in automotive body control modules, smart door handles, and HVAC interface panels.
For engineers reviewing the CY8C4146AZE-S455T datasheet, CY8C4146AZE-S455T pinout, CY8C4146AZE-S455T application, or CY8C4146AZE-S455T equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q100 Grade-S qualification, on-die CAPSENSE™ SNR > 5:1, CAN 2.0B + TTCAN compliance, Deep Sleep current ≤ 2.5 µA, and QFN-48 package compatibility with Arduino-compatible shield headers.
Technical Context
The device implements a tightly coupled programmable analog-digital architecture: its two continuous-time opamps operate in Deep Sleep mode with ADC input buffering, while the 12-bit 1-Msps SAR ADC supports differential acquisition and hardware-sequenced averaging. The capacitance-sensing block delivers sigma-delta (CSD) operation with >5:1 SNR and water-tolerant performance.
Its digital subsystem integrates eight TCPWM blocks supporting center-aligned PWM, quadrature decoding, and comparator-triggered kill signals for motor safety logic; five SCBs enable runtime-reconfigurable I²C/SPI/UART/LIN protocols; and the dedicated CAN 2.0B block supports time-triggered operation with configurable bit timing and error counters.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the Arm® Cortex®-M0+ core in CY8C4146AZE-S455T?
The CY8C4146AZE-S455T operates its Arm® Cortex®-M0+ CPU at a maximum frequency of 48 MHz, achieved via internal PLL multiplication of the 4–33 MHz external crystal oscillator (ECO) or ±2% internal main oscillator (IMO). This frequency is fully supported across the full Grade-S temperature range (–40°C to +105°C) and all voltage rails (1.71–5.5 V).
Does CY8C4146AZE-S455T support true hardware-based capacitive touch sensing without external components?
Yes - it integrates a dedicated capacitance-sensing delta-sigma (CSD) block with SmartSense auto-tuning, enabling robust CAPSENSE™ operation directly on any GPIO pin without external RC networks or calibration firmware. Hardware-accelerated baseline tracking and noise rejection deliver >5:1 SNR and immunity to water, condensation, and EMI per AEC-Q100 test conditions.
Can the CAN peripheral operate in time-triggered mode (TTCAN) and what configuration is required?
Yes - the integrated CAN 2.0B block supports TTCAN with programmable time windows, synchronized message transmission, and freeze frame capability. Configuration requires setting the TTCAN enable bit in the CAN control register, defining time quanta via BRP and TSEG fields, and enabling the time-triggered interrupt flag. No external timing source is needed - the WCO or PLL-derived clock serves as time base.
What debug interface does CY8C4146AZE-S455T use and is SWD compatible with standard ARM tools?
CY8C4146AZE-S455T uses ARM Serial Wire Debug (SWD) via dedicated SWDCK and SWDIO pins, fully compliant with ARM CoreSight standards. It is natively supported by Infineon's ModusToolbox™, PSoC™ Creator, and third-party tools including Keil MDK, IAR Embedded Workbench, and OpenOCD - enabling flash programming, real-time variable inspection, and breakpoint debugging without JTAG header overhead.
