Trenz Electronic TE0630 series are industrial-grade FPGA micro-modules integrating a leading-edge Xilinx Spartan-6 FPGA, a mini-USB 2.0 device port, 1 Gbit (128-Mbyte) DDR3 SDRAM with 16-bit width, 8 Mbyte Flash memory for configuration and operation, and powerful switch-mode power supplies for all on-board voltages. A large number of configurable I/Os are provided via rugged high-speed stacking connectors. TE0630 is fully mechanically and largely electrically backward compatible with Trenz Electronic TE0300 Xilinx Spartan-3E FPGA micro-modules.

All this on a tiny footprint, smaller than a credit card, at the most competitive price. Hardware and software development environment as well as reference designs are available free of charge.
