Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA, XC7A15T.
The die is covered in yellow polyimide film (basically kapton) which is a soft plastic that scratches super easily and has some marks despite my best attempts to keep it pristine with careful handling.
I'll try removing it with sulfuric acid later on and see how it goes. Or maybe take it into work and run it on the RIE with oxygen plasma.
There's not a whole lot to see other than the GTP quad in the southwest corner. I'll delayer at…

1) It's fuzzy - ragged at the left side, and I'm not sure why, mind you it's not terminated or anything, so it could be electrical; or it could be the fact I'm sampling it only at 16MHz.
2) The hard part is capturing the full vertical frame - this is half a frame which is how much fits in RAM at the moment.

The line extended around the back of the store and around temporary barriers, like a theme park. Turns out it was some kind of "grand re-opening" and they were giving away flash drives.
Happily, I was able to come back later in the day and get my order, as well as a nice commemorative mug.

Jeg tror der er skoleaktivitetsdag på den nærliggende folkeskole. Der er i hvert fald liv og glade dage, med en masse bŸrn og unge, der render rundt. Nogen er udklædte. HŸj musik og råben og skrigen kunne tyde på at der er gang i nogle konkurrencer.

They can’t establish their dominance by summoning people to a conference room and pounding their fists on the table. They can’t even make direct eye contact to stare people down."

Tourists enjoying the glorious weather in Cambridge right now. #outdoors #cambridge

A river in a thunderstorm. A single punt is heading into the wind and rain with lots of umbrellas on board. The punter is getting wet and is crouched down to reduce his exposure to the hail that was coming down.
Many punts huddle under a bridge from the driving rain.

Sommerferien er startet. Jeg har besluttet, at jeg hver dag i min ferie vil kŸbe og læse papirudgaven af Politiken. Jeg går simpelthen imod strŸmmen og går analogt. Dagens udgave havde nogle rigtigt gode indlæg om Ida Aukens tåbelige sammenblanding af religion og demokrati. Og så Ytournels intelligente udstilling af idioterne i vores samfund. Fortsat god sommer. #analog
