Cypress Semiconductor and Bhubaneswar Institute of Technology (BIT) have announced a partnership to set up a Programmable System on Chip (PSoC) lab at Bhubaneswar. As part of the agreement, Cypress will provide hands-on training to the faculty and students of BIT, along with free hardware kits and software tools; while BIT will provide the facilities for the laboratory. BIT plans to immediately introduce PSoC training for its 120 students in Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE) and Electrical & Electronics Engineering (EEE), beginning with the students' first year. It also plans to develop courseware and lab material for its basic electronics labs on the PSoC platform. A two-semester course on PSoC has also been planned at BIT, in which the course materials will be developed by the faculty of BIT in collaboration with Cypress.
