"Xilinx delivered growth for the fifth consecutive quarter. Sales from our 16nm Ultrascale , 20nm Ultrascale, and 28nm Zynq products contributed to significant market expansion. The growth from these products was driven by a broad base of markets such as data center, automotive, test & measurement, wired and wireless communications and space," said Moshe Gavrielov, Xilinx President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our FY17 strategic increase in R&D investment continues to pay off with the recent expansion announcement of our 16nm portfolio integrating High Bandwidth Memory and Cache Coherent Interconnect technology into Ultrascale FPGAs. In addition, our 16nm execution continues unabated. We are currently shipping 12 unique products to nearly 300 customers and remain over a year ahead of the competition."
