PROBLEM DEFINITION
Due to a silicon defect, some CY8C38 Family (PSoC 3) processor modules may
exhibit MHz crystal startup issues. Using the external crystal (component Y2 on the
processor module) in PSoC Creator designs may result in failure of the crystal to start
reliably or not start at all.
SCOPE OF IMPACT
Users of MHz crystal on Rev *C or earlier CY8C38 Family processor modules
WORKAROUND
None, at this time
FIX STATUS
This defect will be fixed in the next revision of the silicon.
PROBLEM DEFINITION
Some Rev. *A MiniProg3 devices were shipped with incorrect firmware revision.
MiniProg3 devices with this incorrect firmware version may not work with
CY8CTMA300xE devices. In addition, the MiniProg3 device may get warm when
plugged into a host PC via the included USB cable.
SCOPE OF IMPACT
Users of Rev. *A MiniProg3 device
WORKAROUND
Update to PSoC Programmer 3.10 or later and perform a manual firmware upgrade of
the MiniProg3 device. See the associated
issue.
FIX STATUS
Some Rev. *A MiniProg3 devices may not need the firmware upgrade. Refer to the
Knowledge Based Article
corrected firmware available for upgrading MiniProg3 devices that may have the
incorrect firmware on them.
