Xilinx Ships 16nm Virtex UltraScale+ Devices; Industry’s First High-End FinFET FPGAs

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 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. 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,” said Victor Peng, executive vice president and general manager of the Programmable Products Group at Xilinx.

“Large scale data center systems require high-speed data processing, high-bandwidth, and low-latency connections to network and storage systems,” said 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.”

Availability

Virtex UltraScale+ devices are now shipping. The UltraScale+ portfolio is supported in the current release of the Vivado® Design Suite 2015.4 with over 100 customers actively in development.

About The UltraScale+ Portfolio

Building on Xilinx’s technology leadership in 28nm, 20nm, and now 16nm, the broader UltraScale+ portfolio provides 2 – 5x greater system-level performance/watt over 28nm devices. The portfolio is especially well suited for LTE Advanced and early 5G Wireless, Automotive ADAS, Cloud Computing, Industrial Internet-of-Things (IoT), SDN/NFV, and Video/Vision markets.
