Based on the Spartan®-6 LX150T FPGA, the Avnet Spartan-6 LX150T Development Kit provides a serial gigabit transceiver(GTPs) interface for access to the on-chip PCI Express® x1 hard macro or PCI Express x4 soft macro, one SFP connector, and a SATA Host interface. The system board includes DDR3 SDRAM, Flash memory, a 10/100/1000 Ethernet PHYs, and a serial port. Other board features include a USB port, a programmable LVDS clock, user switches, and LEDs. The board also includes two FMC LPC expansion slots, providing a total of 136 high-speed, single-ended and differential user I/O.
