to all experts,

I need help about implementing a USB Digital Thermometer (from https://www.electronics-lab.com/projects/pc/014/index.html).

I am a newbie about microcontrollers but I already made some researches. My question is, to program a microcontroller, do you really need a programming kit? Or is this kind of microcontroller doesn't need one?

Cypress has already sent me the CY7C63001 USB µcontroller needed for the project and my idea right now is (based on the not so detailed instructions from the article in electronics-lab.com), for a test, 1) follow the schematic diagram by implementing it first with a breadboard, 2) connect it through a USB port 3) then compile the needed codes using a Java compiler... Is that it?
Will the project work just by that? or do I need something more?

What if the code won't work? Do I need an EPROM eraser since that µcontroller's memory is EPROM?

Please help. Thanks.
 

Hi,

need for Programming kits depends on the IC manufacturers. Some IC manufacturers have a built-in boot loader to load the program.

With regards
