Craignell2-48 - 48 Pin FPGA DIL Module

From: John Adair on 26 Apr 2010 00:54 No free samples this week but there are discount codes to collect for anyone that talks to us at the stand this week at ESC. I might even make a special code award for anyone that spots the unannounced product on the stand. The Craignell2 boards themselves are really nice. They are one of my favorites. We won't spec them to this but I have seen one of these work from a lot less than 2V all the way up to 5.5V. I have even programmed them at 2V. The pullup structure with the bus switches actually allows operation with external logic at these extremes of voltages provided the external stuff runs at the suitable voltage levels.

OK it makes sense for me now :-) I have absolutely no Scotish culture, which explains why I missed all the references.
