The Digilent Genesys 2 board is an advanced, high-performance, ready-to-use digital circuit development platform based on the latest Kintex-7 Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from Xilinx. With its high-capacity, high-speed FPGA (Xilinx part number XC7K325T-2FFG900C), fast external memories, high-speed digital video ports, and wide expansions options make the Genesys 2 well suited for data and video processing applications. Several built-in peripherals, including Ethernet, audio and USB 2.0, allow a wide range of other applications. The fully bonded high-speed FMC HPC connector opens the door to great expansion possibilities. The Kintex-7 FPGA offers more capacity, higher performance, and more resources than the Virtex-5 from the first-generation Genesys.
The Genesys 2 also offers an improved collection of ports and peripherals.
The Genesys 2 can be programmed from various sources, like USB thumb drive, microSD, the on-board non-volatile Flash or the on-board USB-JTAG programmer circuit.
The Genesys 2 is compatible with Xilinx's new high-performance Vivado Design Suite as well as the ISE toolset. Included in the box is a voucher that unlocks the Design Edition of Vivado that is device-locked to the Genesys 2. This allows designs to be implemented straight out of the box at no additional cost. The Design Edition of Vivado also unlocks the Logic Analyzer tool and still includes the ability to create Microblaze soft-core processor projects.
