[IRON COVENANT] Purchase Arty A7-35T FPGA for Physical Proof of Concept #22

Description

@gHashTag

Summary

All software components for the VIBEE → FPGA pipeline are complete and tested. The final step is physical validation on real hardware.

Request

Purchase: Digilent Arty A7-35T FPGA Development Board
Cost: ~$150 USD
Vendor: digilent.com

Current Status

Component Status
vibeec compiler ✅ Fixed for Zig 0.13
Verilog codegen ✅ Integrated
Simulation (iverilog) ✅ 100% PASS
Simulation (Verilator) ✅ 100% PASS
XDC Constraints ✅ Ready
Vivado TCL Scripts ✅ Ready
Documentation ✅ Complete
Physical FPGA This issue

Why This Matters

  1. Credibility - Physical proof > simulation
  2. Real Metrics - Actual LUTs, FFs, Fmax, power
  3. Demo Capability - Show investors working hardware
  4. Development Platform - Future FPGA features

Documentation

Expected Outcome

After purchase and setup:

  • Blinking LED demo (video)
  • Real resource utilization report
  • Real timing report
  • Updated documentation with physical results

Timeline

  • Order: 1 day
  • Shipping: 3-7 days
  • Setup & Test: 2-3 hours
  • Total: ~1 week
