An FPGA eval board at $49!!

I would prefer Avnet's Spartan 3E board for $69 :)

Hi,

I would prefer a board with external RAM (DDR or SRAM). For the very first step this board might be enough, but not for the second step :)

regards, Benjamin

I might have missed it, but no details on features?

Definitely, with short traces and lots of capacity. While we're doing the wishlist: Altera, *please* include support the the EP2S35 Stratix II in the WebPack.

SRAM?

I got one. There are two unpopulated spots labeled "CY7C1041CV33" which is a 4Mb (256Kx16) async SRAM.

It came with the ByteBlaster II Parallel Port download cable, 9- and

25-pin serial cables, a 9V 500mA "wall-wart" supply and a CD-ROM with Quartus-II Web edition.

At $49.00 I can guarantee Altera is giving these things away to win new design-ins.

The manufacturer is "Axiom Manufacturing" at

but you won't see this product on their website as it is private labeled for Future Electronics.
