'''Pmod interface''' or Peripheral Module interface is an [[open standard]] defined by Digilent Inc in the ''Digilent Pmod™Pmod Interface Specification'' <ref>{{Citation | url = http://digilentinc.com/Pmods/Digilent-Pmod_%20Interface_Specification.pdf | title = Digilent Pmod™ Interface Specification | publisher = Digilent, Inc. | date = November 20, 2011}}</ref> for peripherals used with [[Field-programmable gate array|FPGA]]s or [[microcontroller|microcontrollers]].

Several types of modules are available from simple push buttons to more complex modules with network interfaces, analog to digital converters or LCD displays. These modules can be used with a variety of FPGA or micro-controller development boards from different vendors. Pmods are not necessarily plug-and-play - software and configuration is required - but the hardware interface is pre-designed and modules can be quickly assembled with host boards for prototyping or evaluation purposes with no soldering required.
