My A1 and A2 stock is running low and I have ordered a new manufacturing run.  The major complaint of the A-series boards is that they are missing LEDs.  I've added a power LED as well as a user-controllable LED to the boards.  This will help with initial setup of the boards when just getting started and will allow for some basic trouble-shooting as well.

In addition to the LEDs the layout has been cleaned up somewhat with the power rail on the bottom layer being pushed to the edges to allow for a better ground plane.  The silkscreen has also been updated to simply show "Ax TinyFPGA" as the board name.  It will still be available with MachXO2-256 parts as well as MachXO2-1200 parts.

Everything else about the board is the same.  These boards are fabricated and are awaiting FPGAs for assembly.  Stay tuned in January and February for their arrival and sale!
