Abstract :
AnyBoard, a low-cost, field programmable gate array (FPGA)-based, reconfigurable rapid-prototyping system is described. The system hardware organization and software tools that help users automatically map designs to the FPGAs and manage the design process are discussed. The implementation of a pattern generator design is presented to illustrate the system´s effectiveness.<>
