HW-AEE-Group-E: common questions

What microcontroller does the HW-AEE-Group-E use?

The HW-AEE-Group-E is built around the XC7S50-FTGB196, from the FPGA family.

How big is the HW-AEE-Group-E PCB?

The HW-AEE-Group-E measures 98 × 86.6 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the HW-AEE-Group-E?

85 components, from 29 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the HW-AEE-Group-E design files?

From the Yashodhandesh/HW-AEE-Group-E repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the HW-AEE-Group-E design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with Yashodhandesh. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the HW-AEE-Group-E without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug FPGA firmware against it before you order a PCB.
