Virtex-4 Capabilities
Simplify and Enhance System Design
Virtex™-4 family FPGAs offer the functionality and performance to address the widest range of demanding applications. We began with the industry-leading capabilities of Virtex-II Pro devices. Then we added enhancements that accelerate productivity by simplifying system design and providing the margin that makes it easy to achieve design targets.
