Meet the Challengers of the Summer of FPGA Design challenge

The element14 Community is pleased to introduce the Summer of FPGAs Design Challenge, in partnership with Digilent.

Join me in congratulating the Official Challengers of the Summer of FPGA Design Challenge, these challengers will be shipped the Cmod S7 Free of charge.

@walking_off_with_smile

The Cmod S7 is a small, 48‐pin DIP form factor board, built around the Xilinx Spartan 7 FPGA.

These selected challengers will receive the FREE board to help power up their FPGA project!

What can you build?

Example applications could include:

Image Recognition
Home Scientific Equipment
Signal Processor
Proof of Concept
Processor Off Loading System

To make enough time for the holiday period and delivery of the kits, we have updated the Project Due deadlines.

Updated Competition Dates

Project Phases	Dates
Application Period	CLOSED
Application Deadline	CLOSED
Challengers Announced	Now
Build Period	22nd November 2021 - 31st January 2022

Winners Announced	February 2022
Prizes Shipped	February 2022

The Terms

Selected official applicants will be chosen to receive the "Kit" listed above. These successful applicants will be our sponsored challengers, and they must use Diglient's Cmod S7 within their project, and publish their final code and designs on the Community for others to use. Those not chosen as sponsored challengers may also join the competition and be eligible to win prizes, but they must base their projects around the kit listed above and adhere to all terms and conditions of the challenge.

They need to post their progress and final project as at least 5 blog posts before the closing date (see above), when projects are due.

Posts which use the FPGA most creatively, are media rich with photos, videos, and code samples will be viewed more favorably in the judging process.
