Highlighted values are higher. Logic is compared in LUT4 equivalents; see how FPGA vendors count logic.

Key differences

The XC7S15 has about 28% more logic capacity (12.8K vs 10K LUT4 equivalents).

They use different logic architectures: the 10CL010 is built from LUT4 and the XC7S15 from LUT6, so the raw LUT counts (10K vs 8K) are not directly comparable.

For arithmetic, the 10CL010 has 23 18×18 multipliers against 20 DSP slices on the XC7S15.

The 10CL010 is designed with Altera Quartus Prime and the XC7S15 with AMD Vivado.
