When: Tuesday, March 1, 2005 - 11:00 a.m. (PST) - Approximate length: 1 Hour including Q & A

Xilinx, Inc. (NASDAQ: XLNX) will host an online seminar featuring Dr. Howard Johnson, renowned signal integrity expert and author of High-Speed Digital Design: A Handbook of Black Magic. Dr. Johnson will explore the latest innovations that minimize signal integrity issues in high-performance FPGA-based systems.

Included will be discussion on advanced FPGAs that incorporate large numbers of high-speed I/O pins, enabling the construction of high-bandwidth interfaces. Dr. Johnson will explain how a well-designed IC package is critical for controlling system noise, due to fast edge rates and simultaneously switching outputs. He will reveal his measurable data showing how FPGAs, in a well designed package, can control system noise.

During this seminar, participants will also learn how Xilinx Virtex™-4 multi-platform FPGA advanced packaging helps designers achieve breakthrough performance by reducing crosstalk and signal path inductance.
