GDMike Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Haha. Could be another round of F18A building up.. ? That's cool. Usually don't get a second chance on some things, This is needed I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hans23 Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 I must say that the list is getting longer and longer, but the XC3S250E-4VQG100C FPGA that is needed in the F18A is not currently available from any of the official chip outlets and priced at around 50 Euros apiece on Aliexpress. I am not going to buy them from there at that price point because the risk that I'm getting relabeled or salvaged and damaged chips is too high for me. If anyone wants to step up and finance the chips, I'll gladly test and build a couple of additional boards, but for the time being, I'll not be able to fulfill the demand, sorry. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duewester Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Hi Hans23, Have you considered the Raspberry Pi Pico for video? I've seen people turn the 4$ board into limited little vga displays. Just wondering.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be an option? Cheaper than both DigiKey and Mouser. Not sure how many you would be looking to buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that sellers on AliExpress have new chips in stock, and they're priced even a little lower than the $25 in that offer. That said, I don't currently have plans to build more boards as I've run out of cables and the market seems to be pretty much saturated anyway - my list is empty at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthew180 Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Buying parts from anywhere other than an authorized distributor means taking a risk of counterfeit parts. I do not believe any vendors on AliExpress are authorized Xilinx vendors, but I would be happy to be wrong about that. If anyone is willing to risk the cost of 100 pieces, let me know. Personally, I do not have $2500 to gamble. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
