At Pixilica, we believe innovation is the new catalyst for growth, and fueling innovation with open source technologies is the right way to produce more and even better societies. 

 

The Firefly is one of the boards we created for that purpose. It features everything you need to create your next-generation product with open-source hardware and software.

Product Specs

Performance

 RISC-V Configurable CPU with or without FPU running on the FPGA

Expansibility

FreeRTOS or Linux Debian, and IP cores accelerators

Power

From 100mW to 5W max when running multimedia apps

Your platform to create the next-gen product

The flexibility and performance of the Firefly is a game-changer for every maker. For the first time, you will be able to design your very own system, hardware-accelerators and RISC-V processor included— on a small, energy-efficient and cost-effective board.

Your needs, your version

We know you all have different needs so we offer different versions of our boards. Some are cost-effective, others offer more performance.

Silent, energy-efficient

Our boards are fanless and energy-efficient even if we use FPGAs. We have worked hard on the design of each one of them to do so.

Who We Are

Pixilica is a startup created by four technology enthusiasts. We had extensive talks on how we could open up bleeding-edge technologies to the greatest number. The Internet is loaded with projects and tutorials but it is not enough, getting the right hardware is a key success!

 

 

Every member of the team is a technology expert. And among us, some give lectures on Software and Hardware R&D. You may meet us in Montana, California, Colorado, Indiana, or even France, and it will be our pleasure talking with you.

You will need

  • A USB cable or a15W barrel power supply – we recommend buying the barrel power supply if you plan to run multimedia applications.

​​

  • A microSD card loaded with the operating system – we recommend buying a pre-loaded SD card along with your Firefly board.

 

  • A keyboard and mouse

​​

  • Cables to connect to a display via an HDMI shield

We are still working on the documentation, stay tuned or contact us if you have any question!
