The XC7A200T-2FB484I is a cornerstone of the Xilinx Artix®-7 family, engineered to provide the industry’s leading performance-per-watt. Designed for logic-intensive applications that require high throughput and low power consumption, this Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is the go-to solution for developers working on advanced image processing, software-defined radio, and industrial control systems.
Unmatched Power Efficiency and Performance
Building on the advanced 28nm HPL (High-Performance, Low-Power) process technology, the XC7A200T-2FB484I delivers a significant increase in performance compared to previous generations. It features over 215,000 logic cells, making it one of the highest-density members of the Artix-7 series. This allows engineers to integrate complex digital signal processing (DSP) functions and high-speed memory interfaces without exceeding tight thermal or power budgets.
As a versatile Xilinx FPGA, the Artix-7 series bridges the gap between low-cost programmable logic and high-end performance. The “-2” speed grade ensures fast clock speeds, while the “I” industrial temperature rating guarantees reliable operation in environments ranging from -40°C to +100°C.
High-Speed Connectivity and Versatile I/O
One of the standout features of the XC7A200T-2FB484I is its robust connectivity suite. It includes integrated GTP transceivers capable of handling speeds up to 6.6 Gbps, supporting protocols such as PCIe® Gen2, Serial RapidIO, and DisplayPort. With 285 available I/O pins in a compact FB484 package, this FPGA provides the flexibility needed for multi-sensor fusion and high-bandwidth data acquisition.
