System Clock

The PSOC 63 BLE MCU SoC is configured to use the internal IMO+FLL as a source for the system clock. CM0+ works at 50MHz, CM4 - at 100MHz. Other sources for the system clock are provided in the SOC, depending on your system requirements.

Fetch Binary Blobs

cy8cproto_063_ble board requires fetch binary files (e.g Bluetooth controller firmware, CM0p prebuilt images, etc).

To fetch Binary Blobs:

west blobs fetch hal_infineon

Build blinking led sample

Here is an example for building the Blinky sample application.

# From the root of the zephyr repository
west build -b cy8cproto_063_ble samples/basic/blinky

Programming and Debugging

The CY8CPROTO-063-BLE includes an onboard programmer/debugger (KitProg3 [11]) to provide debugging, flash programming, and serial communication over USB. Flash and debug commands use OpenOCD and require a custom Infineon OpenOCD version, that supports KitProg3, to be installed.

Infineon OpenOCD Installation

Both the full ModusToolbox [8] and the ModusToolbox Programming Tools [9] packages include Infineon OpenOCD. Installing either of these packages will also install Infineon OpenOCD. If neither package is installed, a minimal installation can be done by downloading the Infineon OpenOCD [10] release for your system and manually extract the files to a location of your choice.

Note

Linux requires device access rights to be set up for KitProg3. This is handled automatically by the ModusToolbox and ModusToolbox Programming Tools installations. When doing a minimal installation, this can be done manually by executing the script openocd/udev_rules/install_rules.sh.

West Commands

The path to the installed Infineon OpenOCD executable must be available to the west tool commands. There are multiple ways of doing this. The example below uses a permanent CMake argument to set the CMake variable OPENOCD.

# Run west config once to set permanent CMake argument
west config build.cmake-args -- -DOPENOCD=path/to/infineon/openocd/bin/openocd.exe

# Do a pristine build once after setting CMake argument
west build -b cy8cproto_063_ble -p always samples/basic/blinky

west flash
west debug
