SP601 Evaluation Board

Overview

The SP601 board enables hardware and software developers to create or evaluate designs

targeting the Spartan®-6 XC6SLX16-2CSG324 FPGA.

The SP601 provides board features for evaluating the Spartan-6 family that are common to

most entry-level development environments. Some commonly used features include a

DDR2 memory controller, a parallel linear flash, a tri-mode Ethernet PHY, general-

purpose I/O (GPIO), and a UART. Additional functionality can be added through the

VITA 57.1.1 expansion connector. “Features,” page 10 provides a general listing of the

board features with details provided in “Detailed Description,” page 12.
