The PSoC 6 TEE supports state-of-the-art security features such as secure boot, secure data storage, and advanced cryptographic algorithms.<\/p>\n<p>Leveraging the flexibility of Cypress\u2019 programmable-SoC philosophy, the latest PSoC 6 generation also allows designers to take advantage of software-defined peripherals to create custom analogue front-ends (AFEs) or digital interfaces.<\/p>\n<p>The new devices also support Cypress\u2019 popular CapSense touch technology, giving the option to provide sleek, smooth user interactions where needed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RS Components (RS) is making available the Pioneer Kit development platform for the PSoC 6 MCU from Cypress Semiconductor Corp.
