AMD releases new Spartan UltraScale+ series FPGA products, using 16nm FinFET process to facilitate excellent performance

Breakthrough design combined with advanced manufacturing: AMD Spartan UltraScale+ FPGA family brings superior performance and security features to cost-sensitive edge applications

According to AMD, Spartan UltraScale+ has created "the industry's highest I/O logic unit ratio" in the field of FPGAs based on 28nm and below process technology, supporting a maximum of 218,000 logic units and 572 I/Os. In terms of voltage, it can support up to 3.3V, and provides 1.77~26.79Mb SRAM memory on the chip.

Using the mature 16nm FinFET process, Spartan UltraScale+ reduces total power consumption by 30% compared to the previous generation 28nm products.

For applications requiring high-performance interfaces, Spartan UltraScale+ is AMD's first UltraScale+ FPGA equipped with a hardened LPDDR5 memory controller. It is also backward compatible with LPDDR4x and provides up to 8 PCIe Gen4 connections, with a total energy efficiency improvement of up to 60%.

AMD said that the Spartan UltraScale+ FPGA product series documentation has been released, relevant developer tools will provide support in the fourth quarter of this year, and samples and evaluation kits are expected to be available in the first half of 2025. According to AMD, the overall life cycle of Spartan UltraScale+ will exceed 15 years.
