Virtex-6 CXT FPGAs
Virtex-6 CXT FPGAs deliver 3.75Gbps GTX transceivers and built-in PCI Express® (Gen 1) and tri-mode Ethernet MAC block that meet high bandwidth and performance demands for niche applications in the wireless, audio, video, and broadcast markets.
Virtex-6 CXT FPGAs Benefits
- Logic fabric enhanced with twice as many flip-flops as previous generation Virtex FPGAs for pipelined designs
- Higher ratio of DSP48E1 slices to support high-performance DSP
- Higher ratio of block RAM enables data buffering and supports the requirements for DSP
- Low power consumption: <150mW (typ) at 3.75Gbps
- Up to 16 GTX transceivers in a single FPGA
- Highly flexible clocking enables independent Rx and Tx operation to effectively double the number of transceivers available for certain applications
- Obtain assured compliance with popular standards such as 10/40/100G Ethernet, PCI Express,OC-48, XAUI, SRIO, and HD-SDI
- Integrated PCI Express blocks and third-generation Tri-mode Ethernet MAC blocks make it easy to implement popular interfaces
- Accelerate development with connectivity kit for Virtex-6 FPGAs
