Wireless solution for embedded control systems
CyFi™ is a complete 2.4GHz solution for
wireless embedded-control systems
supported by easy-to-use software and
kits.
Cypress’s CyFi uses the combination of a robust
protocol, power-efficient radios, and the
programmable PSoC to deliver reliable
connectivity, power-efficiency and superior range.
Typical wireless embedded control solutions
require designers to compromise between
power-efficiency and reliability. The CyFi
solution, however, can change the broadcast
frequency, output power and data rate in real
time, depending on operating conditions, to
optimise reliability and power consumption.
CyFi transceivers are powered by PSoC
devices, which integrate programmable
analogue and digital blocks, hundreds of pre-configured
modules and an 8-bit microcontroller
on a single chip. A PSoC device can replace
multiple discrete components, integrates
numerous functions and can be reprogrammed
at any stage of the development process.
The CyFi protocol stack links the PSoC device
and the CyFi transceiver, and offers a pre-configured,
customisable firmware module that
can be dropped into the PSoC Designer™ 5.0
Integrated Design Environment (IDE). This
enables designers to create feature-rich wireless
applications without complex coding.
