ARM MPS2+ FPGA Prototyping System

The MPS2+ FPGA Prototyping System is designed for prototyping and evaluation Cortex-M family of processors.

It is an affordable motherboard available as part of the Versatile Express range of development boards. It boasts a large FPGA for prototyping Cortex-M based designs and a range of different debug options. It comes with a range of useful peripherals including PSRAM, Ethernet, touch screen, Audio, VGA, SPI and GPIO. It comes provided with fixed encrypted FPGA implementations of all the Cortex-M processors, based on CMSDK. The product supports Cortex-M0 design start and includes an example design with CMSDK peripherals which the user can use in their design. It is an ideal platform for the evaluation and FPGA prototyping of Cortex-M based designs. Cortex-M3 DesignStart uses the same FPGA platform, but has a richer set of peripherals (and a different memory map). Use the dedicated CM3DS board if you are using MPS2+ with Cortex-M3 DesignStart.
