Get started with the power of Versal

The AMD Xilinx Versal ACAPs integrate networked, power-optimized cores on an adaptable platform for the most challenging compute and networking applications.

  • 7nm Architecture: Versal Premium architecture combines high bandwidth and compute density on an adaptable platform.
  • PCIe Gen5 Support: Data transfer speeds 2x faster than Gen4, and high-speed interface between CPUs and workload accelerators.

7nm Architecture

The latest generation 7nm architecture combines adaptable compute engines with a breadth of hardened memory and interfacing technologies for superior performance/watt over competing 10nm FPGAs.

PCIe Gen5 Support

PCIe Gen5 supports data transfer speeds 2x higher than PCIe Gen4, providing greater performance capabilities to developers of PC interconnect, graphics adapters, and chip-level communications. 

Generation 5.0

Double the Bandwidth!

Built with the latest PCIe Gen5 interface, the AX-440p can transfer up to twice the bandwidth of Gen4 devices.

Enterprise-class for Deployment

Ramp to product with the power of Molex

The AX-440p is built on BittWare’s enterprise-class foundation stones: existing products and processes that are already proven through extensive validation. When it’s time to ramp to production, this means a faster turnaround and utilizing the same hardware you have been using for development.
