Product details
Overview
CY8C4146AZI-S423T from Infineon is a programmable 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M0+ microcontroller with 48 MHz CPU, 64 KB flash, 8 KB SRAM, integrated CAPSENSE™ capacitive sensing, and reconfigurable analog/digital blocks. It supports deep-sleep operation at 2.5 µA, features three reconfigurable serial communication blocks (I²C/SPI/UART), and delivers 12-bit 1-Msps SAR ADC performance for embedded human-interface and sensor-fusion applications.
For engineers reviewing the CY8C4146AZI-S423T datasheet, CY8C4146AZI-S423T pinout, CY8C4146AZI-S423T application, or CY8C4146AZI-S423T equivalent, key selection criteria include deep-sleep current consumption, CAPSENSE™ SNR (>5:1), TCPWM quadrature decoding capability, and GPIO flexibility across 36 pins with programmable drive strength and slew rate.
Technical Context
This device integrates a fixed-function Arm® Cortex®-M0+ core with configurable analog (opamps, comparators, 12-bit SAR ADC, IDACs) and digital (TCPWM, SCB, PLD) peripherals on a single die. Its clock system includes ±2% IMO, 32 kHz ILO, and WCO support - enabling precise timing control in low-power touch interfaces.
The CAPSENSE™ sigma-delta engine provides hardware-accelerated capacitive sensing with SmartSense auto-tuning and water tolerance, while five TCPWM blocks support center-aligned PWM, quadrature decoding, and comparator-triggered kill signals for motor control safety logic.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| CPU Core | Arm® Cortex®-M0+ @ 48 MHz - enables real-time deterministic execution for mixed-signal control loops. |
| Memory | 64 KB flash + 8 KB SRAM - sufficient for firmware with CAPSENSE™ middleware and communication stacks. |
| ADC | 12-bit SAR, 1-Msps, differential/single-ended - supports high-resolution sensor acquisition without external signal conditioning. |
| Low-Power Mode | Deep Sleep current = 2.5 µA - sustains capacitive wake-up functionality while minimizing battery drain. |
| CAPSENSE™ | Sigma-delta architecture with >5:1 SNR and water tolerance - enables robust touch buttons/sliders in consumer and industrial enclosures. |
| GPIO | 36 programmable pins with configurable drive modes, strengths, and slew rates - allows direct interface to LEDs, sensors, and legacy peripherals. |
| Serial Interfaces | 3 × SCBs supporting I²C/SPI/UART concurrently - eliminates need for external protocol translators in multi-peripheral systems. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 48-pin TQFP (7 mm × 7 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), lead-free and RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| P0[0]–P0[7] | General-purpose I/O with CAPSENSE™/analog/digital capability | Supports simultaneous touch sensing, ADC input buffering, and digital logic routing via internal analog/digital buses. |
| P1[0]–P1[7] | General-purpose I/O with LCD segment drive capability | Enables direct driving of up to 16-segment LCD displays without external drivers. |
| SCB[0]–SCB[2] | Reconfigurable serial interface terminals (SCL/SDA, MOSI/MISO/SCLK, TX/RX) | Each SCB can be independently assigned as I²C master/slave, SPI master/slave, or UART TX/RX - simplifies board layout reuse. |
| TCPWM[0]–TCPWM[4] | Timer/Counter/PWM signal I/O (PWM_OUT, QUAD_A, QUAD_B, KILL) | Hardware quadrature decoding and comparator-triggered kill outputs enable safe, low-latency motor control without CPU intervention. |
| VDD/VSS | Power supply and ground | Operates over 1.71–5.5 V - supports direct connection to Li-ion, USB, or industrial 3.3/5 V rails without LDO pre-regulation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Programmable Analog Blocks | Two opamps with high-drive external and high-bandwidth internal modes - enable active filtering, sensor biasing, and ADC input buffering in Deep Sleep. |
| Capacitive Sensing Engine | Sigma-delta CSD with automatic SmartSense tuning - reduces firmware development time for touch UIs and eliminates manual calibration. |
| Reconfigurable Digital Logic | PLD blocks performing Boolean operations on port inputs/outputs - implement glue logic (e.g., interrupt arbitration, signal masking) without CPU overhead. |
| Flexible Clock System | IMO (±2%), ILO (32 kHz), and WCO support - allows trade-offs between accuracy, power, and cost across sleep/wake states. |
| Low-Power Operation | 2.5 µA Deep Sleep with operational analog - maintains touch wake-up readiness while extending battery life in portable devices. |

FAQ
Does CY8C4146AZI-S423T support USB connectivity?
No. This device does not include a USB PHY or dedicated USB controller. Communication is limited to I²C, SPI, and UART via its three SCB modules. For USB host/device functionality, external bridge ICs or migration to PSoC™ 4 BLE or PSoC™ 6 families is required.
Can the SAR ADC perform simultaneous sampling on multiple channels?
No. The 12-bit SAR ADC uses a single conversion core with a channel sequencer and signal averaging capability, but it performs sequential conversions - not true simultaneous sampling. Multi-channel acquisition requires time-multiplexed sequencing with software-controlled trigger alignment.
What debug interface does CY8C4146AZI-S423T use?
It uses a 2-pin Serial Wire Debug (SWD) interface compliant with ARM CoreSight standards. SWD supports full JTAG-equivalent debugging, flash programming, and real-time variable inspection through IDEs like ModusToolbox™ and PSoC™ Creator.
Is the CAPSENSE™ block certified for IEC 61000-4-3/6 immunity testing?
Yes. Infineon provides CAPSENSE™ design guides and layout recommendations validated to meet IEC 61000-4-3 (radiated immunity) and IEC 61000-4-6 (conducted immunity) up to Level 3, with reference designs demonstrating >10 V/m performance under standard test conditions.
