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 A27F120 has about 45% more logic capacity (7770K vs 5359K LUT4 equivalents).
They use different logic architectures: the A27F120 is built from ALMs and the XCVP2802 from LUT6, so the raw LUT counts (3885K vs 3349K) are not directly comparable.
For arithmetic, the XCVP2802 has 14,304 DSP Engines against 13,718 AI Tensor DSP blocks on the A27F120.
The A27F120 has more on-chip memory (1328 Mb vs 891 Mb).
Both have transceivers: 144 at up to 256 Gb/s on the A27F120 and 168 at up to 58 Gb/s on the XCVP2802.
The A27F120 is designed with Altera Quartus Prime and the XCVP2802 with AMD Vivado.
