Looks like Avnet is no longer selling Microsemi products. Shame, Avnet is good at providing low priced eval boards for a variety of products. They had a SmartFusion2 Kickstart board with some interesting peripheral devices. Seems that is no longer supported in any way. -- Rick C

Seems that is no longer supported in any way. >Yes I also have a smartfusion 2 board, and it was quite difficult to get the examples going. I finally got the schematics, so I can use it as a custom board, but it was a bit of work getting that. Vincent
