CYPRESS
FRAM and SRAM memories, PSoC microcontrollers and connectivity solutions
About the manufacturer
Cypress Semiconductor Corporation was a US semiconductor manufacturer known for PSoC microcontrollers, memory devices, connectivity products and interface ICs. In April 2020, Cypress was acquired by Infineon Technologies, and its technologies and product families became part of the broader Infineon portfolio.
Cypress built a strong position in programmable PSoC systems, nonvolatile FRAM, SRAM, USB and wireless connectivity. A distinctive feature of PSoC devices is the combination of MCU cores with programmable analog and digital blocks, allowing designers to reduce the number of external components.
Cypress-originated products continue to be used in automation, consumer electronics, industrial systems, medical devices and embedded designs. For long-lifecycle equipment and maintenance projects, continued access to established memory families and standard interfaces is particularly valuable.
Applications
Cypress solutions are common in embedded and industrial designs that require durable data storage, fast memory access or flexible microcontrollers with rich peripheral sets. Typical applications include:
- Embedded control – PSoC microcontrollers and programmable systems.
- Human-machine interfaces – capacitive touch using CapSense technology.
- Data logging – high-endurance FRAM memories.
- Industrial automation – storage of parameters, configuration and process data.
- Measurement and medical devices – reliable data storage and control.
- Consumer electronics – USB, touch and connectivity functions.
- SRAM-based systems – buffering, working memory and fast parallel access.
