KORG uses Cypress PsoC 3 device to drive its product touchpad

Cypress Semiconductor Corporation announced that KORG has selected Cypress's PSoC® 3 programmable system-on-chip for its new generation of KAOSS PAD handheld synthesizer products. KORG Kaossilator 2 and Mini Kaoss give users the ability of free artists, both multi-layer digital music capabilities, and intuitive touchpad and slider functions controlled by PSoC3. In addition to touch, the flexibility and versatility of the PSoC architecture allows the single-chip PSoC 3 solution to perform power sequencing control and signal conversion for the display of KAOSS products, thereby replacing the functions of three devices in the old products.

The Kaossilator 2 synthesizer and the touchpad and slider on the Mini Kaoss all use Cypress's CapSense® capacitive sensing technology to achieve ultra-fast response. Compared with the resistive touch screen used in the previous generation of KORG products, it has a lot of Big promotion. PSoC 3's programmable digital logic unit can drive the signal converter in the product's outstanding organic electroluminescence (OEL) display, thereby reducing the load on the central processing unit (CPU) and optimizing performance. For the application information of PSoC 3 as a touch-sensitive USB musical instrument digital interface (MIDI) controller, please refer to the following website :.

Masato Mizuno, head of product at KORG ’s KAOSS new product line, said: “Kaossilator 2 and Mini Kaoss combine the world ’s best capacitive touch technology with the most popular synthesizer to meet the accuracy and speed of response of musicians. In order to create digital music anytime, anywhere. The flexibility of PSoC 3 allows many design problems to be solved, thereby significantly improving the performance and design of the dynamic synthesizer. "

Leon Tan, Cypress Consumer Solutions Marketing Manager, said: "KORG's KAOSS product line has redefined the way musicians perform music creation and interaction based on the success of Apple's iPhone and iPad. We are pleased to see that KORG has successfully utilized the best capacitive touch technology in the PSoC 3 industry and the ability to replace other components to achieve a variety of other functions, bringing these innovative synthesizers to market.

MCU can't, but PSoC can!

The PSoC solution provides an equivalent of flash-based field-programmable ASIC for embedded control design without the impact of production cycle or NRE. PSoC devices tightly integrate configurable analog and digital circuits and control them through on-chip microcontrollers, which not only simplifies the design modification process, but also reduces the number of components. Only a single PSoC device can integrate up to 100 peripheral functions, which can help customers save design time, reduce board space, reduce power consumption, while also improving system quality and reducing system costs.

PSoC can make your design forward-looking to meet the final stage of specification changes. Designers can modify the firmware at any point in the design cycle, even at the production site. All PSoC devices can support dynamic reconfiguration, allowing designers to dynamically modify internal resources and use fewer components to complete a given task.
