Xilinx has licensed HyperTransport technology intellectual property (IP) from API NetWorks. A HyperTransport technology IP core is to be made available in future designs of Xilinx' Virtex family of FPGAs. HyperTransport is a new high-speed, point-to-point link for ICs and is designed to reduce the number of buses within a system. It was developed to enable the chips inside of PCs and networking and communications devices to communicate with each other up to 24 times faster than with existing technologies.
