2020TPC🔗

The KTag 2020TPC was the third-generation KTag device. Like the Little Boy BLuE, it too was based around the Cypress (now Infineon) CY8CPROTO-063-BLE PSoC® 6 Prototyping Kit using the CYBLE-416045-02. The 2020TPC was the first KTag device to split out the IR transmitters and receivers, making it possible to be packaged in PVC pipe.

Hardware🔗

Here's how Cypress describes the kit in the user's manual:

Thank you for your interest in the CY8CPROTO-063-BLE PSoC 6 BLE Prototyping Board. The CY8CPROTO-063-BLE PSoC 6 BLE Prototyping Board is designed as an easy-to-use and inexpensive prototyping platform. The CY8CPROTO-063-BLE Prototyping Board includes the CYBLE-416045-02 EZ-BLE™ Creator Module, delivering a complete system solution for a wide range of embedded applications at a very low cost. PSoC 6 MCU is a programmable embedded system-on chip, integrating custom digital peripheral functions, memory, and both an Arm ® Cortex® - M0+ CPU and Cortex-M4 CPU on a single chip with flexible automatic routing. Programmable digital peripheral functions allow higher flexibility, in-field tuning of the design, and faster time-to-market. It is a combination of MCU with standard communication and timing peripherals, and a capacitive touch sensing system with best-in-class performance. The CY8CPROTO-063-BLE PSoC BLE Prototyping Board offers an open footprint breakout board to maximize the end utility of the PSoC 6 MCU with Bluetooth Low Energy Connectivity (PSoC 63 Line) device. This kit provides a low-cost alternative to device samples while providing a platform to easily develop and integrate the PSoC 6 MCU into your end-system. In addition, the board includes the following features:

  • Two LEDs to provide feedback
  • A push button to provide a simple user input
  • Footprint for external ECO (2.0 mm × 1.6 mm, 24 MHz)
  • External WCO (32.768 kHz)
  • 1.8 V to 3.3 V operation

The CY8CPROTO-063-BLE PSoC 6 BLE Prototyping Board also integrates Cypress KitProg2 that enables onboard programming, debugging, and bridging functionalities, such as USB-UART and USB-I2C. KitProg2 is used to program and debug the target PSoC 6 MCU which is part of the BLE Module. The Prototyping board allows you to separate the KitProg2 board from the target PSoC 6 BLE board.
