FPGA PMODs
For FPGA development, Digilent's PMOD standard established itself successfully for easy connection of peripheral modules. It is based on a simple pin assignment schema, ranging from single-row 6-pin connectors to double and quad row setups.
In order to follow FPGA course materials, the following PMOD modules got developed:
| 8LED2 PMOD |
|---|
 The 8LED2 PMOD is a quad-row module that provides a set of eight dual-color LED (red/green) that can be used to display FPGA output signals. The module is using THT design, which allows for simple DYI assembly. |
| 16LED PMOD |
|---|
 The 16LED PMOD is a quad-row module that provides a set of sixteen yellow LED outputs. This module is helpful to visualize 16-bit counters, or similar. The module is using 0805-size SMD components, requiring basic SMD assembly skills. |
| 7SEG4 PMOD |
|---|
 The 7SEG4 PMOD is a quad-row module that provides four multiplexed seven-segment LED digits. A single 4-digit 7-segment module from OptoSupply, type OSL40361 has been used. |
| TSLIDE4 PMOD |
|---|
 The TSLIDE4 PMOD is a double-row module that provides four push-button and four slide switch data inputs. I needed this module for the IceBreaker v1.0 board, which provides only 3 push-buttons and no slide switches. |
| PMOD2NANO |
|---|
 The PMOD2NANO is a quad-row PMOD adapter for the 40-pin expansion headers available on Intels DE0-Nano-SoC boards. It provides two double-row PMOD connectors for the DE0-Nano SoC. |
