The full name of FPGA in Chinese is Field Programmable Gate Array (Field Programmable Gate Array), which is a kind of logic chip.

With the increasing penetration rate of 5G, the advancement of AI intelligence and the continuous evolution of automotive intelligence, the market demand for FPGA chips has been strong in recent years.

Xilinx is a major market leader in the FPGA space.

Earlier this year, AMD officially completed the acquisition of Xilinx, the largest acquisition in the semiconductor industry, with a transaction value of nearly $40 billion. Today, the AMD product line includes CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, adaptive SoCs and deep software expertise.

On November 22, AMD’s sudden price increase letter stated that, in addition to the Versal series, the price of Xilinx series FPGA products will be adjusted to 8% across the board, and the Spartan 6 series will increase to 25%. The effective date will start from January 9, 2023. .

This is after Bosch and Intel, AMD has raised prices again in the FPGA field. The Xilinx series price increase products given by AMD this time include UltraScale series, UltraScale (20nm), 7 series (28nm), Spartan-6 (45nm) and the remaining Xilinx mature node products.
