If it's a Calera board, it was designed by our own Jim Battle (come on
out and take a bow, Jim!).

Semi-OT Small World Dept. - In 1987 I used a Palantir OCR unit (5 68000
CPU's and 2MB ROM code) to convert all 60 Sherlock Holmes stories into
machine readable ASCII format (sold several hundred copies of 'An
Electronic Holmes Companion.') Soon after, Palantir was bought by
Calera, and Jim Battle designed the ASIC for their board. Nearly 10
years later I hook up with Jim Battle when I send him a copy of the Sol
User's Manual, and he remembers having heard about this guy who used the
Palantir to scan the Holmes stories!
