Product details
Overview
CY8C4245AXQ-483 from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress Semiconductor) is a 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M0 programmable system-on-chip (PSoC® 4200 family) featuring 48 MHz CPU, 32 kB flash, 4 kB SRAM, 12-bit 1-Msps SAR ADC, two opamps with comparator mode, and capacitive sensing (CapSense® CSD). It integrates programmable analog/digital blocks, two SCBs for I²C/SPI/UART, four TCPWM timers, and supports up to 36 GPIOs in 48-pin TQFP package for embedded control and human interface applications.
For engineers reviewing the CY8C4245AXQ-483 datasheet, CY8C4245AXQ-483 pinout, CY8C4245AXQ-483 application, or CY8C4245AXQ-483 equivalent, key selection criteria include mixed-signal reconfigurability, CapSense® SNR >5:1 with SmartSense™ auto-tuning, Deep Sleep operation at 20 nA, and SWD debug support with flash protection modes (Open/Protected/Kill).
Technical Context
The device implements a single-layer AHB-Lite interconnect between CPU, memory, and peripherals, with dedicated clock gating for low-power operation across five power modes (Active, Sleep, Deep Sleep, Hibernate, Stop). Its analog subsystem includes a CTBm block with two rail-to-rail opamps supporting ADC input buffering, comparator mode, and high-drive external output - all configurable via firmware.
Digital flexibility stems from four Universal Digital Blocks (UDBs), each containing eight macrocells and a data path, enabling user-defined state machines or Verilog-based logic. Serial communication is handled by two independent SCBs, runtime-reconfigurable as I²C master/slave, SPI master/slave, or UART, with automatic hardware flow control and FIFO support.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| CPU Core | Arm Cortex-M0, 48 MHz max, single-cycle 32-bit multiply - enables deterministic real-time control and Thumb-2 binary compatibility with higher Cortex-M families. |
| Memory | 32 kB flash (with Read Accelerator), 4 kB SRAM - supports firmware storage, bootloader, and runtime variables; flash retains EEPROM-like functionality via emulation. |
| ADC | 12-bit SAR, 1 Msps, differential/single-ended, channel sequencer with signal averaging - delivers high-resolution sensor acquisition with noise reduction in motor control or environmental monitoring. |
| CapSense® | CapSense Sigma-Delta (CSD) engine with >5:1 SNR and SmartSense™ auto-tuning - enables robust touch buttons/sliders under wet conditions without manual calibration. |
| Power Modes | 20 nA Stop Mode with GPIO wakeup, Deep Sleep with LCD/CapSense active - allows battery-powered devices to achieve multi-year operation on coin cells. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar programmable mixed-signal MCU applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY8C4247AZI-M485 | Same PSoC 4200 family, 48-pin QFN package, 32 kB flash, but includes USBFS block and lacks CapSense® CSD engine. | Better suited for host-connected peripherals requiring USB enumeration; unsuitable for touch UI designs. | Select when USB device interface is mandatory and capacitive sensing is not required. |
| STM32F072CBT6 | Arm Cortex-M0, 48 MHz, 128 kB flash, 16 kB SRAM, no programmable analog/digital blocks; relies on fixed-function peripherals only. | Requires external components for CapSense® or custom logic; lacks hardware-accelerated sigma-delta modulation. | Choose for cost-sensitive, high-volume applications where analog reconfigurability is unnecessary and flash headroom is critical. |
Compared with CY8C4245AXQ-483, CY8C4247AZI-M485 trades CapSense® for USB connectivity in identical package footprint, while STM32F072CBT6 offers larger memory but no analog/digital programmability - making CY8C4245AXQ-483 optimal for integrated mixed-signal UI and control where hardware flexibility reduces BOM and layout complexity.

FAQ
Does CY8C4245AXQ-483 support USB communication?
No. CY8C4245AXQ-483 does not include a USBFS peripheral block. It supports I²C, SPI, and UART via its two serial communication blocks (SCBs). For USB-capable variants in the same family, consider CY8C4247AZI-M485 or CY8C4248LQI-BL553, both of which integrate USBFS with full device/host capability.
What development tools are required to program and debug this device?
PSoC Creator IDE (free Windows-based tool) is required for schematic-based design, component configuration, and firmware generation. Programming and debugging use the standard Arm Serial Wire Debug (SWD) interface with MiniProg3, KitProg2, or third-party SWD adapters compliant with ARM CMSIS-DAP. No JTAG adapter is needed.
Can the CapSense® functionality operate during Deep Sleep mode?
Yes. The CapSense® CSD engine remains active in Deep Sleep mode with typical current consumption of 15 µA while scanning up to 16 buttons. It supports interrupt-on-touch wakeup to Active mode, enabling instant UI response without continuous CPU polling.
Is flash memory encryption or secure boot supported on this part?
CY8C4245AXQ-483 supports flash protection modes (Open/Protected/Kill) and row-level read/write lock, but lacks hardware AES encryption or dedicated secure boot ROM. Secure boot must be implemented in firmware using SHA-256 signature verification and flash lock enforcement - validated in AN90799 and AN80772 application notes.
