Boards ordered with the SOCKET option contain a BGA socket. The following shows a FPGA (upside
down) next to the open socket:
When closed, the socket has a heat sink on top of the FPGA. Note the socket prevents usage with
an EM probe or similar.
The socket can fit any Artix 7 device in the FT256/FTG256 package. Currently this means the following devic-
es are supported: XC7A15T, XC7A35T, XC7A50T, XC7A75T, XC7A100T. If ordering an FPGA for the socket
ensure it is in the FT256/FTG256 package. Note the ‘G’ package indicates usage of lead-free (Sn/Ag/Cu) solder
balls, whereas the FT256 package uses Sn/Pb solder balls. Either walls will work with the BGA socket.

ChipWhisperer Capture Usage
The CW305 can be used with the ChipWhisperer Capture hardware (either CW1173 or CW1200). The Chip-
Whisperer capture hardware provides power analysis, along with clock and voltage glitching. This forms a
complete low-cost and standalone lab that does not require any additional test equipment such as oscillo-
scopes or power supplies.
See the wiki (at ChipWhisperer.com) for full details and example tutorials of this product.
