TE0722｜DIPFORTy1 Soft Propeller with Xilinx Zynq-7010 and 16 MByte Flash

The DIPFORTy1 "Soft Propeller" is based on the Xilinx Zynq-7010, a System on Chip which contains a FPGA and a Dual Core ARM A9+ processor with enough logic gates to become a Propeller. The board also has 16 MByte of Flash used for configuration and everything fits on a Propeller-compatible DIP 40 pinout.

DIPFORTy1 "Soft-Propeller" is the lowest cost Zynq-based module ever made and the first ZYNQ module that can use existing bases and project boards (Parallax Propeller chip compatibility). All this in a compact 1.8 x 5.1 cm form factor, at the most competitive price.
