litex-boards ★ 500 371 APPLICATION

This repository provides board support packages for the LiteX open-source FPGA SoC builder. It contains over 150 platform definitions (pinouts, connectors, toolchain setup) and corresponding target scripts that assemble a complete SoC (CPU, memory, peripherals) for each FPGA board. The architecture is a collection of Python modules organized into `litex_boards/platforms/` and `litex_boards/targets/`, with each target being a standalone script that can be invoked via `python -m litex_boards.targets.<board> --build --load`. The system supports a wide range of FPGA families (Xilinx, Lattice, Intel/Altera, Gowin, Efinix, CologneChip) and integrates with the broader LiteX ecosystem (LiteDRAM, LiteEth, LitePCIe, etc.) for memory controllers, networking, and high-speed interfaces. Key entry points are the `main()` functions in each target file, which use `LiteXArgumentParser` for CLI argument handling and `Builder` for bitstream generation. The repository is community-maintained under litex-hub and includes CI scripts for consistency checks, board inventory generation, and regression tests.
