Hi dan I allready finished your project icozip on (iCE40HX8K) board And i think to start this project on "nexys A7" it's available for me i also know that is not simeler board Eth phy is RMII The sdram is ddr2

In your opinion, it should be a complicated job for a student?

Well, the job is certainly doable. Too hard for a student? I don't know. Might depend on how motivated you are.

The DDR2 controller is simple enough--use Xilinx's. You'll only need to modify one or two files, and the modifications should be minimal.

The OpenArty design already supports RMII, so porting it to a new board should be highly doable and might require no more than switching up the pin connections in the XDC file.
