Arrow Electronics Announces European FPGA Design Contest – Win a Free Development Board and Exciting Prizes

Arrow Electronics, a global leader in electronics solutions, invites innovators across Europe to showcase their most creative FPGA projects. The Arrow European FPGA Developer Contest 2019 offers participants a free development board—one of Intel’s MAX1000, CYC1000, or AnalogMAX—once they submit a verified project plan.

Entries will be judged on originality and technical execution. Winners receive a range of high‑value rewards, including an Intel NUC PC, a Realsense Camera, and a 512 GB Intel SSD.

Participants can explore a wide array of applications: from software and custom IP to board modifications, adapter creation, PMOD/Arduino integration, IoT devices, and AI/CNN algorithm implementation. The flexibility of the selected boards encourages diverse, boundary‑pushing designs.

To enter, register at the Arrow European FPGA Developer Contest 2019 web page and choose your board. The final deadline for new applications is 31 October 2019. Once accepted, you must submit a comprehensive project description, supporting materials, and the project software by 15 November 2019. All software and designs remain the exclusive property of the developer.

Take advantage of this opportunity to gain recognition, powerful tools, and the chance to collaborate with industry experts.
