• 5,200 slices containing four 6-input LUTs and 8 flip-flops (15,850 slices)1)
• 1,800 Kbits of fast block RAM (4,860 Kbits)2)
• 5 clock management tiles (CMTs), each with a phase-locked loop and mixed-mode clock manager (6 CMTs)3)

The Arty A7, formerly known as the Arty, is a ready-to-use development platform designed around the Artix-7™ Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from Xilinx. It was designed specifically for use as a MicroBlaze Soft Processing System. When used in this context, the Arty A7 becomes the most flexible processing platform you could hope to add to your collection, capable of adapting to whatever your project requires. Unlike other Single Board Computers, the Arty A7 isn't bound to a single set of processing peripherals: One moment it's a communication powerhouse chock-full of UARTs, SPIs, IICs, and an Ethernet MAC, and the next it's a meticulous timekeeper with a dozen 32-bit timers.
