The UltraScale family supports Gen3 (8 Gb/s) speeds with up to x8 links and up to six integrated PCIe blocks to enable high throughput applications such as wireline and data center applications requiring SRIOV with expandable physical and virtual functions. Design engineers can meet the high system bandwidth and programmable system integration needed in a variety of applications with no-cost integrated PCIe blocks.

Xilinx delivers another industry first milestone with our Kintex UltraScale FPGAs achieving PCI-SIG compliance, said Ketan Mehta, PCI Express product marketing manager at Xilinx. With the industrys most robust tranceivers and Vivado Design Suite IP Integrator for accelerated integration of hierarchical and third-party blocks, our customers can realize the fastest time to differentiation.
