Hi everybody,

I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get my hands on a cheap fpga
development board... I'm a university student at Carleton U. in Ottawa so I
can't afford anything to fancy (tuition fees drained my pocket). Anyways...
if anyone can direct me to someone or some merchant I would greatly
appreciate it.

Thanks

Nadeem
 
Check the archive starting from November 17th, there was a thread called "Is
this a good prototype kit?"...

Hi Nadeem,

The Altera University Program will set you up with a 10K70 based
board, Quartus Web Edition & the download cable etc. for $149 US. It
includes MaxPlusII as well, but you'll be better off learning Altera's
latest CAD system, Quartus, instead. See
http://www.altera.com/education/univ/kits/unv-kits.html

You can also get more expensive boards from
http://www.altera.com/products/devkits/kit-dev_platforms.jsp
The $395 Cyclone C20 and $495 Stratix S10 based boards aren't too
expensive, but have reasonable sized FPGAs on them.
