PLD runnin' too hot?

If you think a power-hungry device isn't hard on your system, think again.

Sure, you know some architectures run a little hotter than others, but with the right heat sink, a couple of fans and a slight package modification, you'll probably be OK...Maybe. But we don't think "maybe" is quite good enough. That's why we invented the XC4000XL. The industry's first high-performance 3.3 volt, 0.35 micron FPGA.

Featuring 10 family members ranging in densities from 5,000 to 85,000 gates (or 150,000, depending on who's counting), the XC4000XL is based on our proven low power "segmented" routing architecture. And that means less than half the power dissipation of the competition, with 29 times the reliability. No ifs, ands, buts, or maybes. Because in this business, the success or failure of a system's performance can be measured in degrees. Literally. And when a device draws too much power, your system suffers, in both performance and reliability. So, don't get burned by power hungry PLDs.

Since when did pin locking get so important?

Shy of having someone lob a grenade into your cubicle, the hazards of not having control over pin assignments can be extremely dangerous. Maybe fatal. Now there's a way to escape those last minute design changes unscathed.

Introducing the XC9500 CPLD. The no-risk ISP solution from Xilinx.

Now you can finish your design without worrying about those inevitable last minute changes. Your pins stay locked and predictable. Each time, every time. That means no PC board rework, no cost overruns and no product slips.

The XC9500 is based on our innovative FastFLASH^TM technology. And, that means guaranteed timing, the industry's most advanced JTAG, plus densities ranging from 36 to 288 macrocells, each "footprint compatible". All for under *$1.95.

We just made our parts a lot easier to get into.

Xilinx new Foundation Series software changes everything you know about high level design tools. There's nothing intimidating about it. It's easy to use. It's PC-based. It's extremely affordable. And it's the only program with VHDL synthesis schematic entry, and ABEL language built right in.

To further simplify matters, its HDL Wizard feature automates the VHDL design process with out CPLD and FPGA implementation tools. Plus the software we're shipping today has an upgrade path to the devices we're building tomorrow.

So if you're thinking about making the jump from PLDs to CPLDs or FPGAs, your timing couldn't be better. Click here to request your free Foundation Evaluation Disk. or check out our Foundation Series Brochure.
