A customer on our website asked the following question:
This is regarding your Genesys Virtex-5 FPGA Development Board. We are considering the use of your board in a medium production system. Question: We are already using ALL of the IO connectors on your board. We need more digital IO. Can we remove the SODIMM and replace it with a board of our own design in order to allow more digital IO to be used? If so, can the signals driving the DOSIMM socket be used as normal 3.3V signals, or is the voltage reduced on these IO pins because they are designed to drive the SODIMM? Can the IO pins be used a LVDS pairs (i.e. did you route them in pairs to the connector)?
