Expanding AMD Spartan UltraScale+ Family on 16nm and into the 2040s
AMD launched new Spartan FPGAs. The new AMD-branded Spartan UltraScale+ line is the company’s lower-cost and lower-power FPGA family that takes the place of the Xilinx Spartan 6 and Spartan 7 lines.
The new line of AMD Spartan UltraScale+ FPGAs has higher density and new features. Here is the overview slide.
If you are seeing 16nm and thinking that sounds like older process technology than new desktop and server CPUs, or smartphones, it is. At the same time, not all semiconductors are produced on leading nodes, so cost-optimized chips like this tend to be produced on older nodes. There are other improvements as well such as hardened IP for things like memory controllers that no longer require using programmable logic to implement. $Advanced Micro Devices (AMD.US)$ $NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$
