How about Arty K7 -- an affordable Kintex-7 based board

[wfjmueller]

Hi,

First I tried with Nexys K7, here another try with Arty K7.

There is now a great portfolio of Arty boards, spanning Spartan-7, Artix-7 and Zynq.
The only thing missing is an Arty with a Kintex-7.

And is seems imho well in reach, the XC7K70T is with ~$120 only $10 more expensive then the XC7A100T used on the Arty A7-100.
So a Arty K7-70 should be possible at a reasonable price, slightly above the Arty A7-100.

With that offer the Arty family would cover

• Arty S7  -- Spartan-7 and lowest cost
• Arty A7   -- Artix-7
• Arty K7   -- Kintex-7 and highest speed
• Arty Z7   -- Zynq and embedded processor

Maybe somebody from Digilent can comment on this.

Or users who'd like to buy such a board 

 

             With best regards,     Walter
