What is then? I know they are used alongside PLDs, but I thought PLDs still dominated that use-case.

- adwn 13y agoThey are essentially low-volume ASIC replacements. Some applications: - digital signal processing (DSP) - network equipment (modern high-end FPGAs are able to function as 100G Ethernet switches and routers, just connect them to some PHYs and fast DRAM) - systems on chip (SoC): processor, fast DSP, all kinds of IOs, memory controller – all on a single chip - realtime video stream processing For more examples, see http://www.xilinx.com/applications/index.htm http://www.xilinx.com/applications/index.htm
