Field programmable gate array (FPGA)
Virtex-6 Xilinx

Virtex®-7 FPGAs are optimized for advanced systems requiring the highest performance and highest bandwidth connectivity. The Virtex-7 family is one of three product families built on a common 28nm architecture designed for maximum power efficiency and delivers 2x higher system performance and 50% lower power consumption than previous generation FPGAs. The Virtex-7 FPGA family delivers up to 2 million logic cells, 67Mbits of internal memory, 4.5 Tera-MACS DSP throughput, 2.8 Tb/s serial bandwidth, and fully integrated Agile Mixed Signal capability, Virtex-7 FPGAs are ideally suited for highest performance wireless, wired, and broadcast infrastructure equipment, aerospace and defense systems, high-performance computing, as well as ASIC prototyping and emulation.

The Virtex-7 family consists of T, XT and HT devices to meet different market requirements:

Virtex-7 T devices offer 12.5Gb/s serial connectivity, greatest parallel I/O bandwidth, and ultra high-end logic capacity
Virtex-7 XT devices offer extended capabilities including 13.1Gb/s serial connectivity, higher DSP-to-logic ratio, and higher block RAM-to-logic cell ratio
Virtex-7 HT devices combine 28Gb/s and 13.1Gb/s serial connectivity to enable the world's first single-FPGA solution for 400G communications line cards
