Overview

The CoolRunnerTM-II Evaulation Board is a complete USB-powered circuit development platform for the Xilinx CoolRunner-II CPLD. The board includes highly efficient power supplies, a user configurable oscillator, several user I/O devices, a real-time current meter, and a USB port for board power and CPLD programming. The board includes five expansion connectors that route 64 signals available from the CPLD to external circuits to expand board capability.
