Throwback Thursday: Looking Back at Nexys

We’ve talked a lot lately about the Nexys 4 DDR lately, and we definitely hope you like it as much as we do here at Digilent. But what are the roots of this awesome board?

 

Back in 2006, we ended up with an amazing IC development platform based on the Xilinx Spartan-3 FPGA — the original Nexys.

Since then we’ve had the Nexys 2, 3, and 4 before arriving at what we currently use.

 

We look forward to seeing what the future brings in regards to the Nexys line of FPGAs!
