Winners Announcement
The PSoC High Integration Challenge 2004 provided designers with the opportunity to incorporate a Cypress CY8C2xxxx Programmable System-on-Chip device in a project and compete for a cut of $12,000 in cash prizes. Designers from around the world stepped up to the challenge. A temperature-controlled soldering station was postmarked from Poland. An innovative frequency meter was submitted from New Zealand. A high-tech magnetometer came in from California. These are just a few of the impressive designs that poured in from 23 countries.

After carefully looking over every entry, the judges awarded Lindsay Meek of Australia the Grand Prize for his clever Solar Pump Controller project. The CY8C27443 microcontroller-based system operates a submersible water pump using power generated by solar panels. No standard power sources necessary. Congratulations to Lindsay and all of the other winners!

A special thank you goes out to everyone who participated for helping make the PSoC High Integration Challenge 2004 such an exciting design contest.
