Highlighted values are higher. LUT counts are shown as published; the LUT4 equivalent is an approximation to compare different LUT types, see how FPGA vendors count logic. Add up to two more devices to this comparison.
Key differences
The XC2VP3502 has about 41% more logic capacity (2394K vs 1704K LUT4 equivalents).
They use different logic architectures: the A27F027 is built from ALMs and the XC2VP3502 from LUT6, so the raw LUT counts (852K vs 1496K) are not directly comparable.
For arithmetic, the A27F027 has 3,284 AI Tensor DSP blocks against 2,856 DSP Engines on the XC2VP3502.
Both have transceivers: 48 at up to 128 Gb/s on the A27F027 and 72 at up to 112 Gb/s on the XC2VP3502.
The A27F027 is designed with Altera Quartus Prime and the XC2VP3502 with AMD Vivado.
