I find the open toolchains for Lattice a great development, but I don't have any experience with the ice40 devices yet. Do the Lattice targets have SERDES outputs, clock synthesizers? Edit: I highly doubt that this project would be doable in an ice40 part (no SERDES, relatively small number of LUTs), but maybe an interesting challenge for the reader ;) Maybe with an extra transceiver IC and single bit depth, single zorro protocol...

No idea, but I don't think the FOSS tools would support them at this stage anyway. They also support Xilinx Spartan 6 which looks like what this board uses.

  Where did you find the Spartan 6 support? The page you linked is mostly about Lattice ice40. I see a link to a Spartan 6LX9 reverse engineering project at the end of the page though. I use an LX25.

    You are right, there is no spartan 6 support.
