Note: The Arty A7-35T variant is no longer in production and is retired.
The Arty family of Digilent FPGA/SoC boards was designed with versatility and flexibility in mind. With universally popular Arduino™ headers and multiple Pmod™ ports, an Arty will be the most adaptable FPGA/SoC board in your toolbox.
The Arty A7 is a ready-to-use development platform designed around the AMD Artix-7 FPGA family. With the Artix-7 devices, the Arty A7 board provides the highest performance-per-watt fabric, transceiver line rates, DSP processing, and AMS integration in the Arty family. With the MicroBlaze Soft Processor Core from AMD, you can create embedded applications with a variety of peripherals, memory, and interfaces.
The Arty A7 is supported by AMD's Vivado Design Suite, including the free WebPACK version. You can also leverage the Vitis Core Development Kit or AMD Software Development Kit to start developing for the MicroBlaze processor with no prior FPGA experience.
There are two variants of the Arty A7: The Arty A7-35T features the XC7A35TICSG324-1L, and the Arty A7-100T features the larger XC7A100TCSG324-1.
If the Arty A7 offers more performance than your application requires, the more affordable Arty S7, featuring the Spartan-7 FPGA, may be a better option. If you are looking for an SoC-based development board, consider the Arty Z7, featuring the Zynq-7000 APSoC.
Guides and demos are available to help you get started quickly with the Arty A7. These can be found through the Support Materials tab.

To create and modify designs for your Arty A7, you can use AMD's Vivado Design Suite. Vivado is a software designed for the synthesis and analysis of HDL designs. Both variants of the Arty A7 are supported by the free WebPACK edition of the Vivado Design Suite.
If you are using the MicroBlaze Soft Processor Core from AMD, you can make use of the Vitis Core Development Kit or AMD Software Development Kit to create embedded applications for your Arty A7.
Note: AMD software tools are not available for download in some countries. Prior to purchasing the Arty A7, please check the supporting software's availability, as it is required for the board's use.
