The ZestSC1 FPGA USB board is a low-cost, high performance FPGA board suitable for prototyping and production through to OEM volumes. It’s ideal for data acquisition and processing and FPGA development work.

Benefits

• Out of the box solution – quick and easy to set up
• Fastest possible USB data transfer rate to and from the host PC
• Small and highly portable, with power drawn entirely from USB cable if required, so it can be used with a laptop for development work or ease of demonstration
• Standard 0.1” pitch connectors for maximum flexibility and integration
• Low cost data acquisition and processing
• A daughter card can be designed to add other interfaces to equipment e.g. video, audio, communications

Features

• High Speed (480Mbits/sec) USB interface offering sustained data rate of up to 40MBytes/sec
• Xilinx Spartan-3 FPGA with 1 million gates
• 1 or 8MBytes of pipelined ZBT SRAM
• Daughter card or ribbon cable header with 49 pins of user I/O plus power and ground
• FPGA configured from USB or JTAG
• USB powered plus wall adapter and hard disk power connectors
• Software support for Windows and Linux
• Logic cores for all FPGA interfaces
• Reference designs (including C, VHDL and Verilog source)
