Özet

Nowadays, designers have to use either design boards or ready-made development boards in electronics applications. Although development cards are very practical for amateur users, they can be insufficient for professional applications. Designers is a word that covers a wide area. Because professional and amateur users are the equivalent of this word. The objectives of both types of users are different. While amateur users want to improve themselves in certain areas, professional users want financial gain through various projects. Therefore, it is aimed to make a circuit board that can combine two types of users in this study. Students, given as examples to amateur users, will be able to improve themselves in terms of design and software in the field of embedded systems. Professional users can sign projects that can contribute to the industry with Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA). Therefore, the design and application of the boards gain prominence for this purpose. Unlike development cards, a stable, simple, and professional card design-application which is more economical in terms of professional applications have been made. Main and auxiliary circuit boards design based on FPGA have been designed and printed in this study. That study has been planned as a new and practical FPGA-based development board. In this way, all users and designers will be able to provide the main circuit board and auxiliary circuit board specified in this study, economically and realize their projects faster than other development cards. In addition, amateur users are provided with a basic opportunity to improve themselves on FPGAs and various gate arrays used in many areas. Both developed boards were found to be more efficient in terms of processor performance than the existing development boards by the virtue of FPGA.
