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

Both devices offer similar logic capacity: 1138K and 1138K LUT4 equivalents.

Both have transceivers: 96 at up to 28.3 Gb/s on the MX 1650 and 96 at up to 57.8 Gb/s on the TX 1650.

The MX 1650 is designed with Altera Quartus Prime and the TX 1650 with Altera Quartus Prime.
