The explosive growth in consumer media is forcing consumer electronics manufacturers into a race to add new features, increase performance and connectivity, achieve green certification, and develop next generation designs on shortened design cycles while reducing product form factors and lowering overall costs. The result is shrinking market windows, eroding market share and lower profit margins. To succeed against these pressures, consumer electronics designers must continually differentiate in order to sustain a competitive advantage while lowering system and development costs with fewer engineering resources.

Spartan® FPGAs are a low risk solution that offer an optimal balance of cost, power, and performance enabling consumer electronics designers to successfully address market demands and pressures. Leveraging these devices, the Xilinx Targeted Design Platform methodology provides developers with the advanced silicon, design tools, market-specific IP cores, development boards, and pre-validated reference designs needed to get their product to market faster and focus on product differentiation.

Xilinx enables consumer electronics designers to spend less time integrating and developing unique, differentiated features into their next generation designs for:

• Digital displays

• Set-topboxes(STBs)

• Digitalcameras(DSC/DVC)

• Multi-functionprinters(MFPs)

• Portablehandheldelectronics

Challenges Facing Consumer Electronics Designers
