Volver a 1BitSquared

1BitSquared iCEBreaker FPGA Development Boards

1BitSquared iCEBreaker FPGA Development Boards are open-source evaluation tools and next-generation open CPU architectures designed for teachers and students. The 1BitSquared field-programmable gate array boards are expandable through Peripheral Module interface (Pmod) connectors, enabling users to choose from expansion options, including proprietary versions. The boards are available with tabbed, breakaway Pmods with three push buttons and five LEDs. 

The 1BitSquared iCEBreaker FPGA Development Boards are supported by Yosys, Arachne-pnr, nextpnr, IceStorm, icestudio, and Migen open FPGA design tools.
