Un bel giorno David L. Jones digitò:
Really? The next time, can you ask them why the same FPGA cost a *lot* more
in its maximum pin configuration rather than its minimum pin configuration?
Just to make some examples from Digikey:
XC3S400-4FTG256C price 27.76000
XC3S400-4FGG456C price 48.32000
XC3S1000-4FTG256C price 47.87000
XC3S1000-4FGG456C price 63.79000
XC3S1000-4FGG676C price 87.91000
We asked the top three FPGA manufacturers to explain this, and their
general response was that it doesn't really cost them any more to put
on all the extra I/O
