CHICAGO (Business Wire EON) November 13, 2008 --
Committed to bringing design engineers the newest technologies first,
leading multi-channel electronics distributor Newark,
part of the global Premier Farnell Group, announces that it
is stocking Cypress’ new 2.4-GHz solution for
the embedded market. Available now for same day shipping, the new CyFi™
Low-Power RF solution delivers the industry's leading combination of
reliable connectivity, power-efficiency and superior range, and is
supported by the flexible and easy-to-use PSoC®
programmable system-on-chip.
CyFi™ Low-Power RF is ideal for a broad range
of applications, including home and building automation, remote
controls, health and fitness equipment, and industrial monitoring.
The CyFi™ solution consists of the CyFi
protocol stack in PSoC Designer™ embedded
design software, the selected PSoC device, and the CyFi transceiver. The
solution's unrivaled interference immunity is a result of its Direct
Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) modulation and the agility to move to 80
channels in the 2.4-GHz band. It intelligently manages DSSS, data-rate
and agility to minimize retransmissions, maximizing time in sleep mode
for increased power efficiency.
Newark’s complete Cypress offering can be
found at http://www.newark.com/cypress
including the new PSoC FirstTouch™ Starter Kit
with CyFi Low-Power RF (CY3271), which helps designers to easily and
quickly evaluate the prototyping and debugging of wireless systems based
on the CyFi solution.
Expansion packs for the CY3271 kit will also be stocked by Newark in
early December, 2008, and are now available for pre-order. The CY3271-EXP1
Environmental Sensing Kit is the first of these expansion packs and
includes two boards: the Weather Station Expansion Board (atmospheric
pressure, humidity, temperature, and ambient light) and the Pigtail
Thermistor Expansion Board—enabling wireless
& sensing solution evaluations of both CyFi Low-Power RF and the PSoC
programmable system-on-chip technologies.
"We’re pleased to partner with Cypress
to bring their new low-power RF solution to market,”
said Paul Buckley, Senior VP, Sales & Product Management. “Getting
new technology into the hands of design engineers as quickly as possible
is a top priority for us.”
