"Xilinx has enabled VTG to build superior products
with minimal development time to capitalize on market opportunities.
We attribute the industry awards and recognition achieved by VTG products
to the superior and cost-effective technology of Xilinx."
“Without the density and speed of the Virtex
parts, the Vid chip probably would have been implemented in a gate
array, causing a much longer development cycle for the Ensemble boards.
The engineering team would have had less opportunity to roll in new
and enhanced features during and after the main design cycle.”
"The Spartan FPGAs provide us with
the ability to reprogram our hardware whenever necessary. Vehicle
standards are constantly changing. The Xilinx FPGA allows our customers
to upgrade software and hardware right over the Internet.Field programmability
means our customers never have to buy another scanner simply because
the specs change. Our competitors, however, must send out new hardware.
