Highlighted values are higher. Logic is compared in LUT4 equivalents; see how FPGA vendors count logic.
Key differences
The Tz325 has about 27% more logic capacity (349K vs 275K LUT4 equivalents).
They use different logic architectures: the Tz325 is built from LUT4 and the XC7Z035 from LUT6, so the raw LUT counts (349K vs 172K) are not directly comparable.
For arithmetic, the Tz325 has 1,008 DSP blocks against 900 DSP slices on the XC7Z035.
The Tz325 is designed with Efinix Efinity and the XC7Z035 with AMD Vivado.
