ÜberShield. The perfect companion shield for real-time applications.


Digital I/O
64 digital I/O pins available on standard headers.
GPIO/PWM core and sample code provided for easy integration.
Robotics
PWM for motor control, plenty of I/O for sensors and actuators. Onboard logic resources to handle timing-critical tasks.
Prototyping
Inexpensive and convenient alternative to traditional FPGA prototyping environments.
Education
Ideal for courses on FPGA principles and programming. Fully compatible with Xilinx ISE tools, including the free ISE WebPACK.
Features
- Xilinx XC3S50AN Spartan-3AN FPGA.
50K gates, 54Kbits RAM, 1Mbit In-System Flash.
- Provided tools require Microsoft Windows or the Mono environment.
- Tested with major Arduino-style platforms including Arduino,
Netduino and FEZ.
- FPGA cores can be uploaded using provided tools. No additional software required to use pre-built cores.
- Easy integration with Xilinx ISE WebPACK and other standard Xilinx tools.
- Source code for tools,
samples and
FPGA cores freely available.
- Populated headers for 64 I/O pins with convenient power and ground on each header.
- Full access to onboard in-system flash (ISF) via SPI interface.
- JTAG header (unpopulated).
- Red / green bi-color LED, momentary contact switch, 25 MHz oscillator.
