XILINX Virtex FPGAs


XILINX Virtex-II Pro


Virtex-II Pro™ and Virtex-II Pro X FPGAs delivers more capabilities and performance than any other FPGA.

In a single device, you get the most advanced logic, highest performance, density, memory and at no additional charge, IBM 400MHz PowerPC™ processors and 622Mbps to 10.3125 Gbps full duplex serial transceivers. This gives you a significant productivity advantage and an outstanding value. Plus, being the only FPGA vendor to ship 130 nm, 300 mm production FPGAs, Xilinx gives you the most cost-effective solution.
