18 CY3270 PSoC® FirstTouch™ Guide, Document # 001-15945 Rev. **
Technical Reference
Noticed that the CY8C24894 PSoC device is the only active component in the entire circuit. This sin-
gle PSoC handles all communications between the applications, USB, and expansion card inter-
faces.
The FirstTouch expansion card connects to the FTPC bridge through the 8x2 Expansion Port (this is
a built-in port on the bridge). If you are using only the FirstTouch expansion card, it is generally not
necessary to understand everything about this expansion port or the signals that it contains. By
attaching an expansion card, all of the necessary connections are made.
Figure 3-2 is the pinout diagram for the FTPC Expansion Port. Refer to this figure as you create
projects. As you get more accustomed to the FirstTouch Kit and design flow, you may find yourself
wanting to make your own expansion cards. At that time, you may want to review the interface sig-
nals.
