Hello ,
So lately I have been thinking of slowly getting in to FPGA and one night while browsing I ran into this dev board :
http://www.adafruit.com/products/1553
It's some Mojo FPGA development board using a Spartan 6 XC6SLX9 FPGA.
Can someone with experience in FPGA take a look at it?
Is it worth getting? The reason why I am fixated on this one is because it claims many tutorials and accessable materials for an easy start with FPGA's and... it looks pretty sexy with that matte black and green.
It also uses an atmega32(which I have some experience with) as the configuration micro (which goes into slave mode after configurating the fpga) so I guess that will come in handy at some point.
I don't have anything specific in mind for it yet , but I would like to get into basic video processing etc , especially inclined towards robotics.
So...should I go for it or does someone have anything better to suggest ?
