Quick overview:

Visionect Cypress PSOC Accelera is a prototyping board based on Cypress PSOC line of microcontrollers. PSoC solutions help you get to market fast. Unmatched programmability enables designers to quickly add, subtract, and modify analog and digital functionality, shrinking time-to-market by weeks or months. Moreover, a single PSoC device replaces a wide variety of discrete components — from amplifiers and ADCs to UART s and USB 2.0 controllers — dramatically reducing board size, chip count, and BOM cost while improving manufacturability.

We combined Cypress PSoC with a three axis accelerometer (12G/3G, 400Hz) and a high quality LDO on a board with 8 I/O to provide you with a complete solution for quick product development. It’s very well suited for inexperienced developers since it provides fantastic development tools free of charge. Cypress PSoC Express allows you to use a simple point and click interface to build your first embedded solution while Cypress PSoC Designer provides you with complete development environment suited for the seasoned developer.

Target applications:

Low complexity embedded systems. Quick prototyping projects.
