Yes.  Using Lattice's Diamond software on a Lattice XP2 Brevia board:

    http://www.latticesemi.com/Products/FPGAandCPLD/LatticeXP2.aspx
    http://www.latticesemi.com/~/media/LatticeSemi/Images/ProductImages/DevelopmentKitsAndBoards/XP2_Brevia/LatticeXP2%20Brevia2%20Development%20Kit_Front.png

I've also worked on an Altera board, which is what I'd be using for
this project:

    Cyclone V GX Starter Kit
    https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/P0150/P0150-ND/4437934

I have this breakout board HSMC to GPIO, yielding 120 pins, plus another
40 pins which are on the GX Starter Kit board:

    https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/terasic-inc/P0033/P0033-ND/2003485

I wouldn't mind building a board which plugs directly in to the HSMC
port so that it has no cables, fewer connections.  But, those are
the things I don't know about the hardware end of it.  Logically, I
know I need to have this high and this low, and so on, and digitally
it would all work, but to transfer that digital logic to real analog
hardware ... I don't have any experience on it, apart from reading
many many many things about it.
