Capabilities
Engineered for Exploration
Everything you need to prototype, learn, and build with the latest FPGA technology, at a price that makes it accessible to everyone.
Artix UltraScale+ AU7P FPGA
Featuring the AMD Artix UltraScale+ AU7P in the FCVA289 package. 82K system logic cells, 37K CLB LUTs, 75K flip-flops, 3.8 Mb block RAM, 216 DSP slices, 4 GTH transceivers, PCIe Gen3x4, and 2 clock management tiles.
A4× Pmod Connectors
Instantly connect sensors, displays, motor drivers, and hundreds of available Pmod modules. Rapid prototyping made effortless.
HSIO Transceivers
High-speed I/O supporting Zmod and SYZYGY interfaces, with transceiver ports capable of up to 12.5 Gbps throughput (TBC).
USB-C Powered
Single USB-C cable for power and connectivity. No bulky adapters, no hassle. Just plug in and start developing.
JTAG / UART + FTDI
Integrated debug and programming interfaces. FTDI-based I/O stimulus for seamless development and hardware-in-the-loop testing.
LEDs & Buttons
On-board user LEDs and push buttons for immediate I/O feedback, status indicators, and interactive design verification.
0.5mm Pitch Without HDI
Demonstrates how 0.5mm pitch devices can be successfully routed using standard non-HDI PCB fabrication, thanks to an Offset Through Hole Via strategy. This reduces cost and complexity without sacrificing performance.
Fully Open Source Design
Complete schematics, PCB layout, and reference projects are all openly available. Learn from the design, modify it for your own applications, or use it as a starting point for your next project.
Architecture
System Block Diagram
A single USB-C connection powers the board and provides JTAG, UART, I/O stimulus, and GPIO through an integrated 4-port USB hub.
