White Paper: Xilinx Redefines Power, Performance, and Design Productivity with Three Innovative 28 nm FPGA Families: Virtex-7, Kintex-7, and Artix-7 Devices
Industry dynamics are driving seemingly insatiable demand for higher bandwidth and higher system-level performance while facing more stringent mandatory requirements to reduce power consumption. At the same time, competitive pressures are forcing customers to increase productivity without sacrificing innovation and differentiation. To meet these demands, Xilinx(r) 7 series FPGAs leverage the unprecedented power, performance, and capacity enabled by TSMC’s 28 nm high-k metal gate (HKMG), high performance, low power (HPL) process technology and the unparalleled scalability afforded by the FPGA industry’s first unified silicon architecture to provide a comprehensive platform base for next-generation systems.

White Paper: Reducing Switching Power with Intelligent Clock Gating
Xilinx delivers the first automated, fine-grain clock-gating solution that can reduce dynamic power by up to 30% in Virtex(r)-6, Spartan(r)-6, Kintex(tm)-7, and Virtex-7 FPGA designs. Xilinx intelligent clock-gating optimizations are automatically performed on the entire design, introduce no new tools or steps to the flow, and generate no changes to the existing logic or to the clocks that alter the behavior of the design. And, in most cases, the timing is also preserved.

White Paper: Lowering Power at 28 nm with Xilinx 7 Series FPGAs
This white paper describes several aspects of power related to the Xilinx(r) 28 nm 7 series FPGAs, including the TSMC 28 nm high-k metal gate (HKMG), high performance, low power (28 nm HPL or 28 HPL) process choice. The power benefits afforded by the 28 HPL process and its usefulness across Xilinx’s full product offerings is described as well as the architectural innovations and features for power reduction across the dimensions of static power, dynamic power, and I/O power.

White Paper: EtherCAT on Sitara AM335xARM Cortex-A8 Microprocessors
Texas Instruments is world’s first semiconductor company to license EtherCAT technology and integrate it into the Sitara AM335x ARM generation of ARM Cortex-A8-based microprocessors (MPUs). This whitepaper explores implementation of this technology on the AM335x processor through its programmable real-time unit (PRU)-based programmable technology to create a unified front-end for industrial communications and bring EtherCAT and other industrial standards to its growing platform of ARM-based microprocessors.

White Paper: How Does the FMC (FPGA Mezzanine Card) Standard Measure up Against the PMC/XMC Format for Embedded Defense/Aerospace Applications?
FMCs promise to do for FPGA based solutions what PMC and XMC did for embedded CPU based systems. However, FMC is not really competing with PMC or XMC, but actually complements it, particularly for high bandwidth, low latency applications.

White Paper: Design Approaches Impact GPGPU Implementation
The right choice for a GPGPU platform depends on several factors. Two approaches can be taken when implementing a GPGPU design: chip-down and mezzanine. GE Intelligent Platforms supports both design methods, allowing customers to choose the right approach for their program, including getting started with software design and system validation using early-access GPUs on MXMs, then migrating to chip-down designs later in the cycle when the program goes to production.
