I haven't done anything in this area (except an fpga prac at Uni), but I think these days you can get a board with fpga and ARM core on it from a number of suppliers, for example the SmartFusion 2 SoC. That would make this kind of work more accessible.
- meuk 8y agoI want to buy such a board, but I'm not sure which one to pick. Any recommendations?
- Gladdyu 8y agoThe terasic de0-nano SoC is pretty accessible. It runs Linux and has a decently sized fpga for the price.
- naikrovek 8y agoDo you mean the DE10-Nano? The DE0-nano is not a SoC (no ARM portion).
- rjsw 8y agoHow about a Parallella, it has HDMI output and USB host for keyboard and mouse.
- meuk 8y agoInteresting suggestions, thanks!
- kristianp 8y agoThis website has a lot of suggestions. The zynq SOC is also used in the Parallella: https://joelw.id.au/FPGA/CheapFPGADevelopmentBoards https://joelw.id.au/FPGA/CheapFPGADevelopmentBoards The miniZed board⁽¹⁾ uses a Xilinx chip, but it doesn't seem to come with a license for software except for SDSoC⁽²⁾, which doesn't seem to provide any software for HDL, just C++ and OpenCL.
