Summary (AI generated)

The K26 board features a Zynq UltraScale FPGA, a processor, and the ability to run Linux. It is affordable, priced at around €400, making it accessible for labs. The board is flexible and useful for various applications.

The implementation on the board includes a single compartment for 1,024 neurons and 2^20 synapses, as published in Nature Communications. Over 1000 neurons and 4 million synapses were successfully implemented in real-time with flexible parameters and fully configurable synapses.

Additionally, a multi-compartmental implementation was achieved with 16 neurons, each capable of having up to 64 segments in real-time. The flexibility of the system allows for the emulation of neurological disorders.
