There isn't. TF530 hasn't such hype than TF328. No Wiki page, no much feedback, however, i need to say,i am not registered on Facebook, and maybe i have missed a lot discussions there, donno. I was mostly on my own by searching and purchasing necessary parts (have done a copule of mistakes, ordering wrong parts, as i had no idea what exactly i need) soldering these boards, but when i was totally stuck - i have asked Stephen. Steve always gave me a helping hand! (i am very thankfull for that effort and time he invested in live streams and TF project).

It's a great piece of hardware, indeed, and if You consider to build this card - You should be prepared to spend some time watching Terrible Fire Youtube channel - that's the best place to get all info You need..Or You will be just like me - with a lot of wong parts lying around here

RaspberryPi was used as a replacement for this:

the idea behind it - if You need to purchase one - it can be Pi, as it is more usefull than one purpose programmer for programming only.

Oh my dear..it's not hex, its jed file..

Yes, you should think twice at this point, do You have all tools and skills to do it, or You need to invest some cash in it. What is Your mission? To get this particular accelerator or You like to learn something new? Do You have enough time and patience to learn? I had no knowledge about cpld, smd soldering or whatever before, but i was not in doublt, i really wanted to learn that, and Steve gave me that fuel, he showed that it is possibe, and now it's my hobby, my passion, my way to relax. I don't stop here, i will build also TF534, MSX Carnivore 2 (Altera Cyclone II) and some other interesting projects. Cause it's fun, it's interesting, and i know - i can! Coming home after a hard working day, switch on vocal or deep trance music, turn on my soldering station and just enjoy.. And if i get notification that Steve is online, i throw all away, and watch Youtube, that's true!

It would be good if people started updating the wiki on the 530 site the same as the 328... its been v successful there

i can do it!

the most important - is to correct FPU's - 68881 are not used.
Xilinx cplds need to be 10ns - this info is missing (have purchased 24x 7ns)
Oscillators - same frequency as CPU used (or slight above, if overclocking is planned)
R1, R2, R3 - still have no correct info
