Xilinx broadens the Spartan-3 range
Xilinx has launched the Spartan-3AN platform, claimed as the most advanced non volatile fpga solution. The 90nm Spartan-3 based range, which combines sram and flash approaches, is optimised for non volatile applications where higher system integration or security is important.
“Our newest addition to the Spartan-3 Generation serves space sensitive applications requiring non volatile single chip solutions, including multimedia encoding and decoding, data compression/decompression and microcontroller applications,” said Christophe Chene, senior director of marketing for Xilinx’ general products division.
Spartan-3AN is available in five options. Configurations range from 50k to 1.4M system gates with up to 576kbyte of block ram, 16Mbyte of embedded flash and up to 502 I/Os supporting 26 I/O protocol standards.
