MicroFPGA is an FPGA-based platform for the electronic control of microscopes. It aims at using affordable FPGA to generate or read signals from a variety of devices, including cameras, lasers, servomotors, filter-wheels, etc. It can be controlled via Micro-Manager, or its Java, Python and LabView communication libraries, and comes with optional complementary electronics.
Documentation and tutorials are available on https://mufpga.github.io/.
This repository contains MicroFPGA device adapter for Micro-Manager. It is distributed with Micro-Manager directly. Should you want to build from sources, clone the mmCoreAndDevices repository and use VisualStudio to build either the source from mmCoreAndDevices (in /DeviceAdapters/MicroFPGA/) or from this repository.
