LatticeMico32/DSP Development Board

The LatticeMico32/DSP Development Board for LatticeECP2 is designed to help users rapidly evaluate their microprocessor designs in hardware. The board is packed with features that help the designer get maximum value from the hardware evaluation process, including Flash memory for loading programs, DDR memory for instruction and data storage, optional LCD and keyboard interfaces and a variety of other peripheral interfaces including Ethernet, USB and RS232.

For development with the LatticeECP-33 (first generation LatticeECP FPGA).

Device Support

You will need the following software to use this board:

  • ispLEVER for design, fitting, place & route of Lattice programmable devices
  • ispVM to download your program to the LatticeECP2-50 FPGA
  • Optional: LatticeMico32 Development Tools for development with the LatticeMico32 microprocessor
