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:
| Cmod A7-15T | Cmod A7-35T | |
|---|---|---|
| FPGA part | XC7A15T-1CPG236C | XC7A35T-1CPG236C |
| 1 MSPS On-chip ADC | Yes | Yes |
| Programming options | Quad-SPI Flash/JTAG | Quad-SPI Flash/JTAG |
| Look-up Tables (LUTs) | 10,400 | 20,800 |
| Flip-flops | 20,800 | 41,600 |
| Block RAM | 112.5 KB | 225 KB |
| Clock Management Tiles | 5 | 5 |
