RGB evaluation kit simplifies white-lighting designs

Reduces need for expertise in LED binning and temperature specs

The CY3265C-RGB evaluation kit simplifies design of RGB-based white-lighting LED systems with Cree XLamp LEDs. Using the kit and the included PSoC Designer 5.0 visual design software, designers can simply input the selected XLamp device, select bin specifications through drop-down menus, and select white-light temperature points as well as specific color points for optimal reproduction of any type of desired light output, without having to write a single line of firmware.

The XLamp device specifications and temperature characteristics are integrated into the content library of PSoC Designer 5.0 software, which also supports Cypress’s EZ-Color LED controllers. With other LED controllers, engineers must input specific device binning and temperature performance data.

The kit comes with a daughter card featuring XLamp LEDs, and includes a MiniProg programming board, a 5-V LCD display, a USB cable, a CD with PSoC Designer 5.0, Gerber files, and schematics. ($172 available now.)
