Why use Red Pitaya?

Red Pitaya’s products are excellent tools for learning the basics of electronics and FPGA programming, as well as for advanced engineering projects.

  • The board is powered by Xilinx Zynq 7010 (see all the specifications here)
  • Our extensive teaching materials make it easy to get started.
  • Did we mention that you can get the board for free?

Take also a look at a project that a student from the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca has submitted to the Xilinx, Inc. Open Hardware Design Competition 2022 using the Red Pitaya STEMLab 125-10 board.

Watch the brief overview of the project "Red Pitaya-based low-cost SDR platform" where a large-bandwidth low-cost SDR architecture is based on the Red Pitaya board. The components of this architecture are chosen so that the bottleneck in the transmit/receive chain will be the board.
