A dirt cheap open hardware USB-JTAG board designed to program TinyFPGA A1 and A2 boards. by Luke Valenty @ hackaday.io: One of the goals of the TinyFPGA boards is to make FPGAs cheaper to use. The #TinyFPGA A-Series boards are the first TinyFPGA boards and are designed to be the least...

Today’s market requirements change faster than the typical development time for a new device or the ability of designers of SoCs to know. To solve this problem, FPGAs/MCUs are used so developers can change the configuration/firmware later. As known, MCU IP is static and you can't...

by Max Maxfield @ eeweb.com: A little while ago, it struck me that I was getting tired of explaining what FPGAs are and how they work their magic to those of my chums who — thus far — have worked only with microcontrollers (MCUs), so I decided to write a three-part mini-series of...

Julien @ hackaday.io build a custom board to control e-ink display. He writes: The idea is to control an old broken kindle 3 eink display with a FPGA. I started looking at http://essentialscrap.com/eink/waveforms.html and http://spritesmods.com/?art=einkdisplay since eink constructor...

Arrow Electronics has introduced a new FPGA IoT Maker Board designed for end-to-end application development and optimised for cost. The Arrow MAX1000 board can be installed directly into a custom application or integrated on to a completely separate board. It has been...

A dot matrix RGB LED graphic panel, managed by a FPGA-based controller board that may be separately used as a demoboard, so to evaluate the potential of the on-board Spartan 6. First installment. A FPGA controlled RGB LED MATRIX for Incredible Effects -...

Iolinker is a cheap 64 FPGA board with a MachXO FPGA that functions as a dynamically configurable IO matrix. Its main functionality, besides IO extension, is to dynamically set up a matrix of GPIO connections, that allow direct pass-through of high-frequency signals. Circuits can thereby...

Inspired by an interest in spreading the concepts of FPGA, and because its ability to overcome most of other platforms limitations such as IO, memory, and peripherals, technolomaniac had worked on developing the first Arduino FPGA shield. A Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is...
