Hello everyone.

I was ordering a Icesugar from Muselabs when I saw this cheap ECP5 board. It's a SODIMM module with a carrier board. The module itself costs 35$ and with the carrier board it costs 50$. The specs are as follows:

 FPGA LFE5U-25F-6BG381C 24K LUT  
SDRAM EM638325BK-6H 8MB 
SPI Flash GD25Q16CSIG 2MB
Ethernet PHY Broadcom B50612D x 2

Carrier board:
On-Board Debugger DAPLink with JTAG & USB CDC 
6 x Dual-PMOD 100+ usable IOs 
TYPE-C USB 
PMOD 2x 15 pins x 6 for 180 pins, but I'm guessing not all of them are useable.

What is needed to add the board to Icestudio?

The board also has HDMI, I forgot to add that.

Hi I have received my board and just soldered the PMOD connectors onto it. Here is a photo that shows what it's like.
