Evaluation Board, Spartan-3E, FPGA, 100K Gate, Spartan, PS/2Port and 8Bit VGA Port
The is a Basys2 board that is a circuit design and implementation platform that anyone can use to gain experience building real digital circuits. Built around a Xilinx Spartan-3E field programmable gate array and a Atmel AT90USB2 USB controller. The Basys2 board provides complete, ready to use hardware suitable for hosting circuits ranging from basic logic devices to complex controllers. A large collection of on board I/O devices and all required FPGA support circuits are included, so countless designs can be created without the need for any other components. Four standard expansion connectors allow designs to grow beyond the Basys2 board using breadboards, user designed circuit boards or Pmods. The Basys2 board can draw power and be programmed via its on board USB2 port. PC based Adept software automatically detects the Basys2 board, provides a programming interface for the FPGA and platform flash ROM and allows user data transfers.
Voltages higher than 5.5V on either power connector may cause permanent damage to the board.
