PSoC 5 Daughter Card for XCC
May 19th, 2017 by bdring
I finished a PSoC 5 daughter card design for X-Controller-Controller project. 10 boards should arrive in about a week. This will clean up all the wiring from the breadboard testing I have been doing. My goal is to have a clean development platform for me and possibly others to work with.
The design has the following features.
- Mounts CY8CKIT-059 dev board directly
- Mates directly to the X-controller-Controller
- Independent control of 4 axes.
- Connector for X-Controller button panel
- Connector for X-Controller power supply PCB
- Connector for a Serial LCD panel (Itead Studio Nextion style)
- PSoC controlled stepper motor current.
- PCoC controlled idle current.
Here is an image of the CYC8CKIT-059 development board. The CPU is a PSoC 5LP. The price is only about $10. It comes with a built in programmer, debugger, and USB/UART. This can be snapped off. To fit into the X-Controller, I snap off the programmer and mount it in another location. The connections are made on the PCB. I plan to use stackable headers so all of the pins are still easily accessible.
