Nexys Video Artix-7 FPGA: Trainer Board for Multimedia Applications

The Nexys Video is a powerful platform for audio/video applications. Built around the Artix®-7 XC7A200T, the most powerful chip from the Xilinx® Artix-7 FPGA family, the Nexys Video has all the performance and FPGA real estate needed for high-bandwidth and low-latency A/V processing.

Utilizing A/V signals is made easy with an on-board Mini DisplayPort, three high-speed digital video ports, and a 24-bit audio codec. One can conveniently scale their design with Ethernet, UART, and USB interfaces and integrate it into larger systems. There is no limit to customizability with the 160-pin FMC LPC connector and four additional Pmod ports.

The Nexys Video is supported by Xilinx's Vivado Design Suite, including the free WebPACK edition, making the Nexys Video a great option for any budget.

Guides and demos are available to help users get started quickly with the Nexys Video. These can be found through the Support Materials tab.
