 The only difference between the Nexys A7 and Nexys 4 DDR is the addition of the Nexys A7-50T variant of the Nexys A7, which has a smaller gate array. The Nexys A7-100T variant is functionally identical to the Nexys 4 DDR. The only difference between the Nexys A7 and Nexys 4 DDR is the addition of the Nexys A7-50T variant of the Nexys A7, which has a smaller gate array.

 The MIG Wizard will require the fixed pin-out of the memory signals to be entered and validated before generating the IP core. For your convenience, an importable UCF file is provided on the Digilent website to speed up the process. The MIG Wizard will require the fixed pin-out of the memory signals to be entered and validated before generating the IP core.
