Basys 3 Artix-7 FPGA Trainer Board with USB Cable: Recommended for Introductory Users

The Basys 3 is one of the best boards on the market for getting started with FPGA. It is an entry-level development board built around a Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA. As a complete and ready-to use digital circuit development platform, it includes enough switches, LEDs, and other I/O devices to allow a large number of designs to be completed without the need for any additional hardware. There are also enough uncommitted FPGA I/O pins to allow designs to be expanded using Digilent Pmods or other custom boards and circuits, and all of this at a student-friendly price point.

The Basys 3 is designed exclusively for Xilinx's Vivado Design Suite, and the WebPACK edition is available as a free download from Xilinx.

Features

The Artix-7 FPGA is optimized for high performance logic, and offers more capacity, higher performance, and more resources than earlier designs. Artix-7 35T features include:

Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA: XC7A35T-1CPG236C
33,280 logic cells in 5200 slices (each slice contains four 6-input LUTs and 8 flip-flops)
1,800 Kbits of fast block RAM
Five clock management tiles, each with a phase-locked loop (PLL)
90 DSP slices
Internal clock speeds exceeding 450MHz
On-chip analog-to-digital converter (XADC).

The Basys3 also offers an improved collection of ports and peripherals, including:

16 user switches
16 user LEDs
5 user pushbuttons
4-digit 7-segment display
Three Pmod ports
Pmod for XADC signals
12-bit VGA output
USB-UART Bridge
Serial Flash
Digilent USB-JTAG port for FPGA programming and communication
USB HID Host for mice, keyboards and memory sticks
