The folks over at Gadget Factory have implemented an Arduino-compatible avr8 processor on an FPGA, called the Butterfly Wiring-Arduino IDE. It’s a pretty impressive technical feat, and could definitely be a fun way to experiment with designing your own peripherals. For instance, if you needed a couple of extra hardware PWMs, it wouldn’t be a problem- you could just add them to the design! [via hackaday]
