Altera and Xilinx Eyeing 28nm FPGA Dominance
August 11, 2011
28nm FPGAs are finally hitting the market and the next round in the battle between Altera and Xilinx is heating up. At 40nm, Altera beat Xilinx out the door by a year and as a consequence won a lot of new sockets in the high end Communications market. In the past year, Altera has closed the revenue and market share gap with Xilinx. This new round at 28nm looks to be much more closer. However, the winner of the contest may come down to whom has the better eye – as in eye diagram.
