# ULX3S PCB # ULX3S PCB
This is work-in-progress place for putting This is a small (94x51 mm) standalone FPGA board
some wishes of a small (94x51 mm) FPGA board. for research and general purpose, with a full
featured selection of chips which I all wanted on
a low-cost PCB, but haven't found on the market.
It's open source and open hardware because if it is
good for my development on
[F32C](http://github.com/f32c/f32c) SOC,
it should be also good to other projects.
ULX3S = University digital logic Learning eXtensible ULX3S = University digital logic Learning eXtensible
board release 3 with SDRAM, Successor of board release 3 with SDRAM, Successor of
[ULX2S](http://github.com/emard/ulx2s). [ULX2S](http://github.com/emard/ulx2s).
It can do things no other board can.
It can self-reflash with a bitstream sent
remotely from web interface over WiFi or from SD
card browsed by onboard OLED display and buttons.
It can completely power down and wakeup from
battery backed RTC.
Normally it has rich range of chips and connectivity
required for many other open source projects:
SDRAM, USB, PS/2, SDCARD, HDMI, FLASH, RTC, I2C, OLED, AUDIO, ADC,
onboard FM/PSK antenna 88-433.92 MHz and 56 GPIO pins which
are all routed as differential pairs and have pinout that
is PMOD compatible.
Schematics and PCB are done in open source KiCAD PCB editor:
kicad ulx3s.pro kicad ulx3s.pro
[Schematics](/doc/schematics.pdf) is mostly complete. [Schematics](/doc/schematics.pdf) and is pretty close to final.
