parts needed

Apart from the RecelFA PCB preassembled by JLCPCB you need a few ICs, an optional MP3 'Miniplayer' and two micro SD cards.

See my Reichelt shop cart for details

In addition you also need a FPGA and an USB Blaster to be able to program your FPGA. Have a look at my FPGA page to select which one you want to use.
