Mercury 2 - FPGA DIP Board

Mercury 2 is an ultra-compact 3" by 1" AMD Artix 7 FPGA development board. The convenient 64-pin DIP form-factor makes it easy to add an FPGA to a breadboard, protoboard, or to your own custom PCB design. Mercury 2 provides a complete FPGA solution, encapsulating all the required power, configuration, and I/O circuitry, leaving you to focus on your project.
