Cmod A7-15T: Breadboardable Artix-7 FPGA Module

The Digilent Cmod A7 is a small, breadboard friendly 48-pin DIP form factor board built around a Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA. The board also includes a USB-JTAG programming circuit, USB-UART bridge, clock source, Pmod host connector, SRAM, Quad-SPI Flash, and basic I/O devices. These components make it a formidable, albeit compact, platform for digital logic circuits and MicroBlaze embedded soft-core processor designs using Xilinx's development software, Vivado. There are 44 Digital FPGA I/O signals and two FPGA Analog inputs that are routed to 100-mil-spaced through-hole pins so that you can integrate your programmable logic design directly into a solderless breadboard circuit. At just 0.7” by 2.75”, it can also be loaded in a standard socket and used in embedded systems.

Note: 

The only difference between the Cmod A7-15T and Cmod A7-35T are the capabilities of the FPGA found on the board. They compare as follows:

  • 512KB SRAM with an 8-bit bus and 8ns access times

  • 4MB Quad-SPI Flash

  • USB-JTAG Programming Circuitry

  • Powered from USB or external 3.3-5.5V supply connected to DIP pins

• System Connectivity

  • USB-UART bridge

• Interaction and Sensory Devices

  • 2 LEDs

  • 1 RGB LED

  • 2 Push Buttons

• Expansion Connectors

  • 48-pin DIP connector with 44 Digital I/O and 2 Analog inputs (0-3.3V)

  • One Pmod connector with 8 Digital I/O
