Developers, makers and hobbyists looking for a powerful FPGA development board that is equipped with an easy to use IDE might be interested in a new device called the miniSpartan6+ created by Scarab Hardware.
The miniSpartan6+ is currently over on the Kickstarter crowd funding website looking to raise $7500 in pledges to become a reality and provide all the hardware and software you need to quickly create an FPGA project.
A field-programmable gate array or FPGA is an integrated circuit designed to be configured by after manufacturing by a user hence the “field-programmable” part. Check out the video below to learn more about what the miniSpartan6+ FPGA development board can offer users, from its creators who explain :
“When we came up with our board’s design, we looked at what was available in other boards on the market and enhanced it.
Our kit is small, much smaller than the closest thing on the market,it’s smaller than a credit card at only 1.8 in x 3.0 in. That means you can put it inside some pretty small projects. (Here’s something to get you thinking, by 2025 the cost of putting one pound into space is expected to be just $100.)
And our kit is bread board friendly, so you can quickly connect it to a shield or to a bread board. Now, there’s a handful of other broads with many of these features on the market, but our miniSpartan6+ costs around half of what its closest competitor does.”
So if you think miniSpartan6+ FPGA development board is something you could benefit from, visit the Kickstarter website now to make a pledge and help miniSpartan6+ FPGA development board become a reality.
