6. CapSense Migration Paths
As a system evolves, it may require a CapSense controller with more advanced features. The following sections
describe possible migrations among CapSense controllers.
6.1 CY8C20x34 to CY8C20xx6A/H/AS
CY8C20xx6A/H/AS devices implement CSA_EMC using dedicated hardware similar to that in CY8C20x34.
Therefore, upgrading your design from CY8C20x34 to CY8C20xx6A/AS does not require any external hardware or
firmware changes, simply clone your PSoC Designer project to CY8C20xx6A/AS.
Advantages of CY8C20xx6A/H/AS over CY8C20x34:
More I/O pins
Wider operating voltage range
Lower power consumption
Immersion TS2000 Haptics Technology for ERM control
6.2 CY8C21x34/B / CY8C24x94 to CY8C20xx6A/H/AS
All three devices feature CSD capacitive sensing. CY8C20xx6A/H/AS devices implement CSD using dedicated
hardware as opposed to programmable digital and analog blocks as in CY8C21x34/B and CY8C24x94 devices.
Furthermore, CY8C21x34/B and CY8C24x94 devices use an external bleed resistor in the current measuring circuit,
whereas CY8C20xx6A/H/AS devices use an on-chip iDAC. These architectural differences necessitate different
external circuitry, user module parameters, and settings for similarly named parameters and APIs between the
devices.
Advantages of CY8C20xx6A/H/AS over CY8C21x34/B and CY8C24x94:
Eliminates an external hardware component
Wider operating voltage range
Lower power consumption
Immersion TS2000 Haptics Technology for ERM control
6.3 CY8C20xx6A/H/AS to CY8C21x34/B / CY8C24x94
All three devices feature CSD capacitive sensing. CY8C20xx6A/H/AS devices implement CSD using dedicated
hardware as opposed to programmable digital and analog blocks as in CY8C21x34/B and CY8C24x94 devices.
Furthermore, CY8C21x34/B and CY8C24x94 devices use an external bleed resistor in the current measuring circuit,
whereas CY8C20xx6A/H/AS devices use an on-chip iDAC. These architectural differences necessitate different
external circuitry, user module parameters, and settings for similarly named parameters and APIs between the two
devices. If the USB module is used in CY8C20xx6A, then migration is not possible to CY8C21x34/B.
Advantages of CY8C21x34/B and CY8C24x94 over CY8C20xx6A/H/AS:
Proximity up to 5 cm
Water tolerance
