5 open source boards using the FPGA
Real designs built with the FPGA, from public GitHub projects: a quick way to see how others power, decouple and connect it. Each board comes with its KiCad files, full parts list and a render — and you can simulate its firmware on HardLabs.

FPGA: common questions
Where can I find a FPGA reference design?
Each of the 5 boards on this page is a real design using the FPGA. Open one to see how it is wired up, with the full BOM, a render of the layout and links to its KiCad files.
What parts are used alongside the FPGA?
The AD9866, LD1117S12, LD1117S25 and LD1117S33 appear in the most repositories here.
Which microcontrollers do boards using the FPGA use?
Most are built on FPGA (3).
How big is a typical board using the FPGA?
The median is 65 × 56 mm, and 0% are two-layer designs.
What is the most popular open source board using the FPGA?
By GitHub stars, Radioberry by pa3gsb, with 675 stars.
Can I simulate one of these boards using the FPGA before building it?
Yes. HardLabs turns a board's netlist and BOM into a working simulation, so you can boot and test firmware against it with no hardware on your desk.
