It&#8217;s a bit finicky maybe to hook up the pins you need for serial ports, the sd card and such &#8211; but I made a simple pcb to connect the most obvious that I can plug in on top of the board. And I have a much more complicated pcb that has a miniature version of the PiDP console on it too &#8211; sadly it uses a couple of components that have become unobtanium. There is a redesign coming up, but no timelines on that yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone\"><a href=\"\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/DSC_8200.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/DSC_8200.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-287\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The DE0-Nano board<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone\"><a href=\"\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/DSC_8194.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/DSC_8194.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-286\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">DE0-Nano with Digilent PMOD-RS232 and Trenz micro-SDCard PMOD<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DE0-Nano has a decent size Cyclone-IV FPGA, a generic SDRAM memory, some tiny buttons and leds, and a lot of header pins all on a very small board.
