The ULX4M FPGA board, developed by Intergalaktik Ltd. as a continuation of the successful series of FPGA boards created within the Radiona.org – Zagreb Makerspace, and shaped through long-term open-hardware work and community collaboration, is featured as part of the online talk and workshop “Exploring Every Way to Build Lattice ECP5 FPGAs” by Andrew Elbert Wilson.

This online talk and workshop explores multiple approaches to designing and working with Lattice ECP5 FPGA devices, with a strong focus on open-source toolchains, workflows, and hardware platforms. The latest version of the ULX4M board is used as a reference hardware platform for practical demonstrations and real-world examples throughout the session.

ULX4M’s inclusion in this event highlights its relevance within the global open-source FPGA ecosystem and emphasizes the importance of locally developed knowledge and infrastructure that, through Radiona, contributes to international educational and technological initiatives.

The talk and workshop take place online on February 24, 2026 with the live stream and recording available via YouTube Live: https://www.youtube.com/live/7Havv4TaeOE
