The ProASIC3 Starter Kit is available in two versions. One version is a complete kit that includes the FlashPro3 programmer and the other is a reduced cost version that does not include a programmer. Order the reduced cost version if you want to chain boards or if you already have a working FlashPro3 programmer. The board is socketed in both of these versions and is populated with A3PE1500 silicon. Any device in the ProASIC3 family in the PQ208 package may be placed into the socket.
