| Digilent has a bunch of FPGA boards: http://www.digilentinc.com/Products/Catalog.cfm?NavPath=2,40... The DE0-Nano-SoC, which has an FPGA and a dual-core Cortex A9 might be a good option if you wanted to get started with Altera parts: https://www.terasic.com.tw/cgi-bin/page/archive.pl?Language=... The analogous Xilinx board is probably the Zedboard: http://zedboard.org/ Finally, you might consider the Lattice Semiconductor iCE40. There are two dev boards (small and large, both very cheap): http://latticesemi.com/iCEstick http://www.latticesemi.com/en/Products/DevelopmentBoardsAndK... They are especially attractive since they have the only fully open source toolchain: https://github.com/cseed/arachne-pnr Have fun! |
