9.3 Debug Features

The CY8C53 supports the following debug features:

Halt and single-step the CPU

View and change CPU and peripheral registers, and RAM

addresses

Six program address breakpoints and two literal access

breakpoints

Data watchpoint events to CPU

Patch and remap instruction from flash to SRAM

Debugging at the full speed of the CPU

Compatible with PSoC Creator and MiniProg3 programmer and

debugger

9.4 Trace Features

The following trace features are supported:

Data watchpoint on access to data address, address range, or

data value

Software event monitoring, “printf-style” debugging

9.5 SWV Interface

The SWV interface provides trace data to a debug host via the

Cypress MiniProg3 or an external trace port analyzer.

9.6 Programming Features

The SWD interface provides full programming support. The

entire device can be erased, programmed, and verified.

Designers can increase flash protection levels to protect

firmware IP. Flash protection can only be reset after a full device

erase. Individual flash blocks can be erased, programmed, and

verified, if block security settings permit.

9.7 Device Security

PSoC 5 offers an advanced security feature called device

security, which permanently disables all test, programming, and

debug ports, protecting your application from external access.

The device security is activated by programming a 32-bit key

(0x50536F43) to a Write Once Latch (WOL). The WOL must be

programmed at VDDD ≤ 3.3 V.

The Write Once Latch is a type of nonvolatile latch (NVL). The

cell itself is an NVL with additional logic wrapped around it. Each

WOL device contains four bytes (32 bits) of data. The wrapper

outputs a ‘1’ if a super-majority (28 of 32) of its bits match a

pre-determined pattern (0x50536F43); it outputs a ‘0’ if this

majority is not reached. When the output is 1, the Write Once NV

latch locks the part out of Debug and Test modes; it also

permanently gates off the ability to erase or alter the contents of

the latch. Matching all bits is intentionally not required, so that

single (or few) bit failures do not deassert the WOL output. The

state of the NVL bits after wafer processing is truly random with

no tendency toward 1 or 0.

The WOL only locks the part after the correct 32-bit key

(0x50536F43) is loaded into the NVL's volatile memory,

programmed into the NVL's nonvolatile cells, and the part is

reset. The output of the WOL is only sampled on reset and used

to disable the access. This precaution prevents anyone from

reading, erasing, or altering the contents of the internal memory.

The user can write the key into the WOL to lock out external

access only if no flash protection is set (see “Flash Security”

section on page 16). However, after setting the values in the

WOL, a user still has access to the part until it is reset. Therefore,

a user can write the key into the WOL, program the flash

protection data, and then reset the part to lock it.

If the device is protected with a WOL setting, Cypress cannot

perform failure analysis and, therefore, cannot accept RMAs

from customers. The WOL can be read out via Serial Wire Debug

(SWD) port to electrically identify protected parts. The user can

write the key in WOL to lock out external access only if no flash

protection is set. For more information on how to take full

advantage of the security features in PSoC see the PSoC 5

TRM.

Disclaimer

Note the following details of the flash code protection features on

Cypress devices.

Cypress products meet the specifications contained in their

particular Cypress data sheets. Cypress believes that its family

of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the

market today, regardless of how they are used. There may be

methods, unknown to Cypress, that can breach the code

protection features. Any of these methods, to our knowledge,

would be dishonest and possibly illegal. Neither Cypress nor any

other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of

their code. Code protection does not mean that we are

guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”

Cypress is willing to work with the customer who is concerned

about the integrity of their code. Code protection is constantly

evolving. We at Cypress are committed to continuously

improving the code protection features of our products.
