DS180 (v1.15) February 18, 2014 Product Specification
General Description
Xilinx� 7 series FPGAs comprise three new FPGA families that address the complete range of system requirements, ranging from low cost, small form
factor, cost-sensitive, high-volume applications to ultra high-end connectivity bandwidth, logic capacity, and signal processing capability for the most
demanding high-performance applications. The 7 series FPGAs include:
� Artix�-7 Family: Optimized for lowest cost and power with small � Virtex�-7 Family: Optimized for highest system performance and
form-factor packaging for the highest volume applications. capacity with a 2X improvement in system performance. Highest
capability devices enabled by stacked silicon interconnect (SSI)
� Kintex�-7 Family: Optimized for best price-performance with a 2X technology.
improvement compared to previous generation, enabling a new class
of FPGAs.
