Xilinx 'shipper' nu de første 16nm FinFET-baserede FPGA'er
Over 60 virksomheder har nu modtaget Virtex UltraScale+ FPGA'er, der er baseret på en high-end 16nm FinFET procesteknologi hos foundry-partneren TSMC (in english),
Xilinx has announced first customer shipment of the Virtex UltraScale+ FPGA, the industry’s first high-end FinFET FPGA built using TSMC’s 16FF+ process. Xilinx is actively engaged with more than one hundred customers on the UltraScale+ portfolio with design tools, and has already shipped devices and/or boards to over sixty of these customers.The Virtex UltraScale+ devices join the Zynq® UltraScale+ MPSoCs and Kintex® UltraScale+ FPGAs showcasing the availability of all three families of the Xilinx 16nm portfolio. Virtex UltraScale+ devices build on the success of the Virtex UltraScale family, the industry’s only 20nm high-end FPGAs. With industry leading capabilities like 32G transceivers, PCIe Gen 4 integrated cores, and UltraRAM on-chip memory technology, the new devices provide the required performance and integration needed for next generation data center, 400G and terabit wired communications, test and measurement, and aerospace and defense markets.
- The successful delivery of our Virtex UltraScale+ FPGA marks the availability of all three UltraScale+ 16nm families, which are already providing more than one hundred customers with the ability to develop next generation designs using cutting edge FinFET-based devices, development boards and tools, says Victor Peng, executive vice president and general manager of the Programmable Products Group at Xilinx.
- Our 'Three-Peat' execution – with three consecutive generations of leadership technology at 28nm, 20nm, and now at 16nm – showcases our sustained commitment to being first to market with the most advanced products in our industry.
- Large scale data center systems requirehigh-speed data processing, high-bandwidth, and low-latency connections to network and storage systems, adds Jeff Milrod, president and CEO of BittWare.
- The early availability of high performance Virtex UltraScale+ devices, will enable us to rapidly meet and deploy leading edge technology addressing the networking, packet processing, storage and acceleration applications required by our customers.
