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 XCVP1902 has about 98% more logic capacity (13536K vs 6836K LUT4 equivalents).
They use different logic architectures: the A27F100 is built from ALMs and the XCVP1902 from LUT6, so the raw LUT counts (3418K vs 8460K) are not directly comparable.
For arithmetic, the A27F100 has 12,732 AI Tensor DSP blocks against 6,864 DSP Engines on the XCVP1902.
The A27F100 has more on-chip memory (1160 Mb vs 858 Mb).
Both have transceivers: 112 at up to 256 Gb/s on the A27F100 and 160 at up to 58 Gb/s on the XCVP1902.
The A27F100 is designed with Altera Quartus Prime and the XCVP1902 with AMD Vivado.
