Spartan-3 boards comparison

May 06, 2005 1 Replies

I am about to buy an fpga dev board for personal use and am not able to decide between xess XSA-200 board which costs $149 and the spartan-3 starter kit from digilent costing $100(without jtag cable-$20). the features are more or less the same except for sram/sdram on board differences. can those of you who know more about these boards or used them give some suggestions on how they compare.



thanks for all your feedback



Hi,

I would take the board with the SDRAM from XESS. For applications like image or soundprocessing a little bit more ram never hurts.

regards, Benjamin
