I just got an Alchitry Au+ (v2) board and the Io v2 expansion board, but it seems that they’re not actually meant to connect to each other? The Io v2 board has what I believe to be v1 style connectors which don’t connect to the Au+ v2 connectors. I’m just wondering if there’s a version of the Io board that does connect to the v2 style connectors, or if I’m missing something else about how they’re supposed to connect. I also got the Br v2 and that does connect to the Au+ board so that’s what I thought the Io v2 would have. The images on the listing for it do in fact show the old style connector so honestly I think I just wasn’t paying enough attention when I got it. Still, is there any way to connect it? There’s an adapter for v2->v1 but that’s the opposite of what I would need.
Looking more closely, I think the real problem is that I have it exactly backwards - and that all of what I’m calling v2 connectors are actually v1 and vice versa. And the only thing that really threw me off is that the Alchitry Au+ says v2 on it but has v1 connectors. And the Br thingy I have is in fact “v1”. I think I understand better how I went wrong.
Sorry to keep posting on this topic, but I also wanted to clarify that the only reason I’m calling the Au+ v2 is because it says v2 physically on tha back of the board. As I’m looking further and further into this - it seems like there is no product called Au+ v2. So Idk I just got really scrambled up.
To add some clarity:
The Au board you have is the “Au+”…this is kind of confusing, but…it isn’t “v2” generation, but it is a 2nd version of the Au that Alchitry released with a better FPGA than what was on the original Au
We do sell an Au v2
