Power Saving Technologies in the World's First 65nm FPGA
Overview:
Reducing power consumption lowers system cost, increases reliability, and enables higher clock rates. Virtex™ FPGAs combine the most advanced semiconductor technology and architectural innovations to deliver new levels of performance with a significant reduction in power consumption. These advances enable designers to meet performance targets easily while also beating their power budget. ExpressFabric™ technology implemented in 65nm silicon enables Virtex-5 FPGAs to achieve 30% higher performance with 35% lower dynamic power consumption than previous-generation devices. Triple-oxide technology, along with other enhancements, keeps static power consumption on par with that of 90nm Virtex-4 FPGAs.

In this webcast we discuss these power-saving technologies and present benchmark data demonstrating power reduction in various designs.

Webcast attendees will learn about the:

  • Tools for estimating and optimizing FPGA power consumption
  • Power reduction benefits and challenges presented by migration to 65nm node
  • Key power-saving technologies implemented in 65nm Virtex-5 FPGAs
  • Results from hardware benchmark evaluations


Who should attend:

  • ASIC and FPGA engineers
  • Designers of complex, high-performance systems
  • System architects
  • Engineering or technical managers
