Adding the USB104 A7 board to Litex
In this blog we already talk about Litex in this post, and also we used Litex to run Linux in a SoC in this post. If we remember the flow, the steps are very simple. We need to execute some…

Running Petalinux on a Microblaze soft-core.
You can do everything with an FPGA. I have used this sentence many times in my job, and most of them followed by, its all a time matter. Also, in this blog I have said many times that FPGA are…
Getting started with Microchip’s FPGA Icicle Kit and PolarFire SoC.
In these rare days when getting a development board with a new FPGA is increasingly difficult, a new board has come into my hands. The board is the Icicle Kit, a Single Board Computer (SBC) from Microchip Technology. It is…
Discovering Gowin FPGA.
Few weeks ago Dialog Semiconductor announced a new series of FPGAs named as ForgeFPGA. The highlight of these new devices are not a high processing power, the highest speed or the big they are, the main highlights of these devices…
FFT algorithm using an FPGA and XDMA.
In this blog we talked (a little) about the xDMA IP from Xilinx, and how to send and receive data through PCI using an FPGA. In that occasion we used the Picozed board with the FMC Carrier gen 2. This…
Creating Pynq images for custom boards.
In this blog we already talk about Pynq and how it can help us to develop some applications in a easy way. Obviously, Pynq has its limitations but it still being a powerful tool with we can develop projects in…
Discovering the SmartFusion® 2 SoC.
Several years ago, electronic designs began to feature System on a Chip (SoC) technology. This technology is an excellent choice for designs that require a higher integration or a reduction in Bill of Materials (BOM) cost. On this blog we…
Development boards I use.
Many times, developers who want to take their first steps in the world of the FPGAs ask me about a development board which begin to test their first designs. From the newie point of view, I understand that see a…
Connecting an SSD to Zynq MPSOC.
Devices like Xilinx Zynq or Microchip PolarFire give us the possibility to mix in a single design a high level OS like Linux and a fast device like FPGA. For signal processing, or even data science, is very interesting to…
Discovering SDR with GNU Radio and USRP B205Mini.
This post will be different from what I usually write. In general, in my posts, I talk about low-level algorithms and FPGA implementations to do digital signal processing, but this time I will use software to configure an specific purpose…
