XILINX Spartan FPGAs
XILINX Spartan-IIE
The Lowest Cost Solution for Consumer Applications
Spartan-IIE FPGAs give you everything you need to create cost-optimized, flexible, feature-rich products; and you'll find they're far easier (and less expensive) to develop than any ASIC. With the Spartan-IIE family, you get:
- Densities from 50K to 600K system gates
- Superior I/O capabilities
- Up to 514 I/O - more than any other low-cost FPGA
- Supports 19 standards, including LVDS, HSTL, and PCI
- A low cost per I/O of any programmable solution
- A seamless path for density migration
- A robust feature set - You get DLLs, distributed RAM, and block RAM, delivering the resources you need to develop today's digital convergence products.
- The MicroBlaze soft processor - Reduce your overall design cost and device count with this low cost, easy-to-use soft processor solution (an excellent field programmable controller).
- XtremeDSP - You get over one billion MACs/sec/dollar, the most cost-effective programmable DSP solution.
- ISE software tools - You'll finish your design faster, and reduce your development costs even further.
- Extensive IP core support - We offer a wide range of cores including PCI and DSP algorithms, to increase your productivity and decrease design time.
XILINX Spartan-3
The World's Lowest Cost Per Gate, and the Lowest Cost Per I/O
Xilinx, the leader in programmable logic, once again redefines the FPGA. The Spartan™-3 FPGA family, built on the success of four previous generations of cost-optimized Spartan FPGAs, offers platform capabilities with a wide range of I/O and density options. Get fast time-to-market and low unit cost - avoid the long development time and the high NRE cost of ASICs.
- Eight devices ranging from 50K to 5M system gates
- Up to 1.8 Mbits of Block RAM
- From 124 to 784 I/O pins - a wide range of I/Os in each logic density
- Digital clock management - to simplify and strengthen your designs
- Embedded 18x18 multipliers to support high-performance DSP applications.
- ISE productivity tools slash your design time
- ChipScope Pro system debugging environment
- DSP development tools such as System Generator for DSP as well as tools from The MathWorks and Cadence
- A wide range of soft cores, including PCI plus high-speed differential signaling with LVDS.
- Forward error correction and high-performance interfaces
- Xilinx 32-bit MicroBlaze™ and 8-bit PicoBlaze™ soft processors
- IP migration capability from previous-generation Spartan designs.
