Description

This is a small board with the low-cost ACEX FPGA with some SRAM and Flash. It is designed as a module for soft-core CPU development. I've used this board as basis for JOP - the Java processor. JOP still fits into the ACEX 1K50.

See some pictures of the board at: http://www.jopdesign.comboard.jsp
