This new product contains up to three Virtex-4 FPGA’s: 2 LX parts (LX100/160/200) and 1 FX part (FX60/100). All FPGA to FPGA interconnect is differential and we are ultimately gonna get the differential stuff to run at 400MHz. With the 10x SERDES embedded in the I/O’s, you will get 1800+ signals between the two LX FPGA’s. That’ll make your partitioning easier. We’ve added a bunch of other features.

The title of this one is ‘Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. I got mine Saturday morning about 14 hours after midnight, and that made me late to the crowd. I'm about to go home and read another few hundred pages. This is remarkable stuff. There are not a lot of authors that cause me to alter my schedule 6 months in advance. JK Rowling is the only author that screws up my schedule this way. For those of you ‘adults’ that haven't read her series of books, you are missing it. Big time. Highly recommended. Addendum on Wednesday: 400 pages into it and it’s gripping. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince __________________________________________________________ More death news: This time Scotty The Chief Engineer from Star Trek, Scotty, (James Doohan) has died. ‘Scotty’ was one reason I became an engineer. Of course, Dad is an engineer. That helped a little also. And I was never a very good dancer so that career wasn’t an option. ‘Beam me up Scotty!’ __________________________________________________________ StratixII Coming Soon We will soon start shipping the DN7000k10PCI. This product has 3 2s180 StratixII devices. Call to discuss if you are interested. I haven't conjured up the datasheet yet. ________________________________________________________ DVI daughter card soon For those of you asking about DVI, we have a DVI daughter card shipping.
