The GOWIN ecosystem continues to be adopted by the open-source FPGA community!

Support for GOWIN FPGAs has been added to the popular FPGA debug toolchain!

fCAPZ is an open-source, vendor-agnostic suite of FPGA debug cores, including, among others, an Embedded Logic Analyzer (ELA) for waveform capture and an Embedded I/O (EIO) for runtime read/write of fabric signals. Coupled with OpenOCD, fcapZ opens up a new realm of debugging possibilities:

* No more fiddly, platform-specific, GUI-based configuration of debug cores.
* No more interrupted synthesis / PAR flow for debug core wire-up.
* Simple plug-and-play debug cores, platform-agnostic interface.
* Command line-based, i.e. probe, capture, with a multitude of debug options.
* Automated, AI-based review of debug capture
* Allows waveform review using open-source viewers such as Surfer or GTKWave.

For those wishing to see fcapZ in action, BrisbaneSilicon has integrated it into the example project for their popular BRS-100-GW1NR9 FPGA development board!

We’re excited to share that GOWIN is collaborating with JLCPCB (via LCSC) to make it easier to access FPGA devices for prototyping and small-quantity builds.

Platforms like JLCPCB play a critical role in enabling rapid prototyping, small-volume production, and low-cost hardware development.

Through this cooperation, selected GOWIN FPGA devices will be available via JLCPCB-style PCB fabrication and assembly services, helping developers move faster from idea to PCB to a working system.

We’re also continuing to expand availability through additional sourcing platforms such as HQchip, giving developers more flexibility in how they access GOWIN devices.

What this enables:
• Accessible prototyping for makers and students — simple, low-cost access through integrated PCB and assembly workflows
• Rapid iteration for engineering teams — a practical path for R&D and early-stage development without large MOQs
• Flexible sourcing for advanced users — support for local assembly and cost-sensitive designs

This is part of GOWIN’s broader effort to support the full spectrum of FPGA users. From first-time builders to experienced engineers taking products toward production.

Some of the most interesting FPGA innovations right now aren’t coming from massive teams; they’re coming from developers, makers, and small engineering groups.

We’ve been seeing more projects built around GOWIN devices across the open-source and prototyping space. Especially from platforms like Sipeed, with growing activity from teams like Brisbane Silicon and OneKiwi.

From compact development boards to creative FPGA-based applications, the focus is clear:
🔹Faster iteration
🔹Accessible hardware
🔹 Real-world experimentation without massive overhead

This shift is changing how people approach FPGA design… from something traditionally complex to something far more approachable and flexible.

We’re continuing to invest in making FPGA development more accessible. From tools to hardware to how devices are sourced and deployed. We’re working on new ways to make FPGA access even easier. Stay tuned!

Redesigning around FPGA shortages doesn’t have to take months.

After Embedded World, one message came through loud and clear:
➡️ Teams are actively looking for alternative FPGA sources
➡️ Rising costs and long lead times are forcing redesigns

What surprised most procurement teams?
How fast those redesigns can actually happen!

We’ve seen teams:
🔹 Transition designs in a matter of weeks
🔹 Reuse existing hardware with minimal changes
🔹 Rapidly prototype using available development platforms
🔹 Regain control over cost and supply timelines

With flexible migration paths and dedicated design support, moving forward doesn’t have to mean starting over.

If supply constraints are impacting your roadmap, there are faster ways to adapt.

Let’s be honest.

No engineer wakes up excited to redesign a PCB just because their FPGA suddenly has a 52-week lead time. Yet this is still happening across the industry.

At GOWIN, we built our roadmap around solving exactly this problem:

✔ stable supply planning
✔ migration-friendly device families
✔ predictable production scheduling

At Embedded World 2026, we’ll be showing how teams are avoiding redesign cycles entirely. If you’re attending Embedded World in a few weeks, stop by and talk to us about your current sourcing situation.

📅 March 10–12, 2026
📌 Hall 3A, Stand 340

Because redesign should be a technical decision…
not a supply chain emergency.
