[{"type":"text","content":"— New FPGAs offer high I/O counts, power efficiency, and state-of-the-art security features for embedded vision, healthcare, industrial networking, robotics, and video applications — SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) today announced the AMD Spartan™ UltraScale+™ FPGA family, the newest addition to the extensive portfolio of AMD Cost-Optimized FPGAs and adaptive SoCs. Delivering cost and power-efficient performance for a wide range of I/O-intensive applications at the edge, Spartan UltraScale+ devices offer the industry’s highest I/O to logic cell ratio in FPGAs built in 28nm and lower process technologyi, deliver up to 30 percent lower total power consumption versus the previous generationii, and contain the most robust set of security featuresiii in the AMD Cost-Optimized Portfolio. “For over 25 years the Spartan FPGA family has helped power some of humanity’s finest achievements, from lifesaving automated defibrillators to the CERN particle accelerator advancing the boundaries of human knowledge,” said Kirk Saban, corporate vice president, Adaptive and Embedded Computing Group, AMD. “Building on proven 16nm technology, the Spartan UltraScale+ family’s enhanced security and features, common design tools, and long product lifecycles further strengthen our market-leading FPGA portfolio and underscore our commitment to delivering cost-optimized products for customers.” Flexible I/O Interfacing and Power Efficient ComputeSpartan UltraScale+ FPGAs are optimized for the edge, delivering high I/O counts and flexible interfaces which allow the FPGAs to seamlessly integrate and efficiently interface with multiple devices or systems to address the explosion of sensors and connected devices. The family offers the industry’s highest I/O to logic cell ratio of FPGAs built on 28nm and below process technology, with up to 572 I/Os and voltage support up to 3.3V, enabling any-to-any connectivity for edge sensing and control applications. The proven 16nm fabric and support for a wide array of packaging, starting as small as 10x10mm, provide high I/O density in an ultra-compact footprint. The extensive AMD FPGA portfolio also provides the scalability to start with cost-optimized FPGAs and continue through to midrange and high-end products. The Spartan UltraScale+ family is estimated to offer up to a 30 per...
