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 A27F100 has about 27% more logic capacity (6836K vs 5377K LUT4 equivalents).
They use different logic architectures: the A27F100 is built from ALMs and the XCVP1802 from LUT6, so the raw LUT counts (3418K vs 3361K) are not directly comparable.
For arithmetic, the XCVP1802 has 14,352 DSP Engines against 12,732 AI Tensor DSP blocks on the A27F100.
The A27F100 has more on-chip memory (1160 Mb vs 891 Mb).
Both have transceivers: 112 at up to 256 Gb/s on the A27F100 and 168 at up to 58 Gb/s on the XCVP1802.
The A27F100 is designed with Altera Quartus Prime and the XCVP1802 with AMD Vivado.
