Xilinx FPGA's and Companion Microprocessors Overview FPGA's are becoming more competitive with respect to price and performance. A standalone processor will not satisfy all system needs. Some interfacing will need to be designed into the system. The FPGA's natural flexibility adapt perfectly to the design requirement of providing interfaces and logic. By using an FPGA and a companion microprocessor, you gain maximum flexibility without sacrificing performance.
