FPGA System Board Suppliers:

There are a number of FPGA system board suppliers. A variety of boards are available with different features depending on the type of requirements that need to be met. I've tried the following FPGA systems listed below which tend to be more geared towards educational purposes.

Diligent produces some great low-cost FPGA system boards. They also offer add-on components and modules. I've tried both the S3 Starter board and Nexys board. These boards have what's needed to learn about digital electronics. I also find the small form-factor of board appealing, it makes it easy to place on the desk and find inexpensive enclosures for as well.

Terasic produces a respectible FPGA system in the TREX-C1 board. A couple of nice things about this board are that it's self contained as most of the components one might use are already on the board, also it has TV output capablilty. It's also setup in such a way with all the connectors along one edge of the board. This should make it easy to mount in a case.
