The logiCRAFT-CC-Base Companion Chip kit is an excellent entry level platform designed for customer looking to add FPGA companion chip to the preferred host processor.

This kit includes the same reference FPGAs, IP cores and software parts as the other two logiCRAFT-CC kits. However, it is not bound to specific host processor platform.

Kit users interested in Linux OS distributions delivered with the logiCRAFT-CC-Elite and the logiCRAFT-CC-Premier kits can get it from Xylon.
The provided reference FPGA designs, with evaluation versions of the logicBRICKS IP cores, can be used as bases for in-house developments and can save months of development time.  The PCIe Companion Chip Controller IP core and the USB firmware are provided to kit users free of charge. The pre-designed PCIe and USB interfaces allow designers to focus on the rest of the system and its differentiating functions.

Xylon provides a full set of Linux drivers for all logicBRICKS IP cores included in the reference FPGA designs, as well as demo software applications for Linux.

logiCRAFT-CC-Base kit includes:
