A technique for testing transmitting data. Typically, a binary digit is added to the data to make the sum of all the
process, and performed in such a way that the process can be resumed.
A block of code that normal code execution is diverted to when the M8C receives a hardware interrupt. Many
interrupt sources may each exist with its own priority and individual ISR code block. Each ISR code block ends
with the RETI instruction, returning the device to the point in the program where it left normal program execution.
A circuit that senses V
An 8-bit Harvard-architecture microprocessor. The microprocessor coordinates all activity inside a PSoC by
interfacing to the Flash, SRAM, and register space.
A device that controls the timing for data exchanges between two devices. Or when devices are cascaded in
width, the master device is the one that controls the timing for data exchanges between the cascaded devices
and an external interface. The controlled device is called the slave device.
microcontroller typically includes memory, timing circuits, and I/O circuitry. The reason for this is to permit the
realization of a controller with a minimal quantity of chips, thus achieving maximal possible miniaturization. This
in turn, reduces the volume and the cost of the controller. The microcontroller is normally not used for
general-purpose computation as is a microprocessor.
A device that imposes a signal on a carrier.
A circuit that may be crystal controlled and is used to generate a clock frequency.
digits of the binary data either always even (even parity) or always odd (odd parity).
An electronic circuit that controls an oscillator so that it maintains a constant phase angle relative to a reference
signal.
The pin number assignment: the relation between the logical inputs and outputs of the PSoC device and their
physical counterparts in the printed circuit board (PCB) package. Pinouts involve pin numbers as a link between
schematic and PCB design (both being computer generated files) and may also involve pin names.
A group of pins, usually eight.
A circuit that forces the PSoC device to reset when the voltage is lower than a pre-set level. This is a type of
hardware reset.
