This is a good accessory board for learning FPGA development
This is a good accessory board for learning FPGA development, and I was able to use a number of functions right away. I have to review this as 3 stars because the LEDs on the board have no way of limiting current. After a bit of use, I noticed some LEDs showing signs of wear, not glowing as brightly. The LEDs get quite warm unless some other limiting strategy is in place. In the end, it's a usable product for its purpose, but some aspects of the design are a little short-sighted.
