MiSTer FPGA Forum

Hi.
I have just bought a DE10-Nano board, now I am wading into working out what add-ons I need and where to get them.
Primarily this seems to be 128MB SD ram and a USB hub board. I'm looking for a way to find reputable sellers (good quality components etc) that can post to the UK where I am. Is there a list of recommended sellers? Thanks

Have a look at the Sellers forum on this site for addon board vendors.

Great, thanks!

128MB SDRAM is a good choice, USB hub board is not absolulely necessary, you can also use a USB OTG host adaptor into a powered USB hub externally, but it's not as clean looking a setup. Just in case you had a hub lying around and wanted to save money.

One thing I advise when people get the USB hub addon board is to get a more powerful power supply.

As for good UK suppliers, I highly recommend https://misterfpga.co.uk/

They also sell an upgraded mean well power supply last I remember. It's the same one I have and it works great.

Thanks.

I have a PSU rated at 5V 2A, is that enough?

This is what I use. 2A is the stock PSU and personally that's not enough if you start powering a fan + usb addon board with wifi, bluetooth, a controller, etc...

Thanks will look into it. I might even have something I can use already in my spaghetti of PSUs collected over the years (will make sure it's correct ratings etc if so)
