500MHz IC FPGA

The wide array of Virtex-4 FPGA hard-IP core blocks includes the PowerPC® processors (with a new APU interface),
tri-mode Ethernet MACs, 622 Mb/s to 6.5 Gb/s serial transceivers, dedicated DSP slices, high-speed clock management circuitry,
and source-synchronous interface blocks. The basic Virtex-4 FPGA building blocks are enhancements of those found in the popular
Virtex, Virtex-E, Virtex-II, Virtex-II Pro, and Virtex-II Pro X product families, so previous-generation designs are upward compatible.
Virtex-4 devices are produced on astate-of-the-art 90 nm copper process using 300 mm (12-inch) wafer technology
