Xilinx Joins Semiconductor Industry Leaders at ConFab 2012: “Managing the New Economics of Semiconductor Manufacturing”

SAN JOSE, Calif., May 31, 2012 – Xilinx, Inc. (NASDAQ: XLNX) today announced its participation at The ConFab 2012 Conference at The Encore at The Wynn in Las Vegas from June 3 – 6, 2012.

Xin Wu, Xilinx senior director of silicon technology, and Sandeep Bharathi, Xilinx vice president of engineering, and will join semiconductor fabrication industry leaders and decision makers from around the world to share perspectives on managing the new economics of semiconductor manufacturing.

What: The ConFab 2012 Conference 
Where: The Encore at The Wynn Las Vegas, Las Vegas, Nevada 
When: June 3 – 6, 2012

Wu and Bharathi are participating in the Foundry-Fabless Supply Chain and Advanced Packaging and Progress in 3D Integration sessions on Tuesday, June 5, 2012.  They will provide key insights into Xilinx’s successful strategy to increase customer value with All Programmable 28nm technologies and devices that deliver a completely new level of programmable systems integration – well beyond what Moore’s Law alone can provide – increasing system performance, lowering total system power and significantly reducing bill of materials (BOM) costs.

They will highlight critical factors for successful collaboration with supply chain partners and provide an in-depth look behind the design of its All Programmable technologies and devices, which extend far beyond traditional programmable logic to enable both hardware and software programmability, integrate both digital and analog mixed-signal functions, and allow new levels of programmable interconnect in both monolithic and multi-die 3D ICs.

Session 3: The Foundry-Fabless Supply Chain

Tuesday, June 5

8:45 – 10:15 a.m., The Encore at The Wynn Las Vegas

28nm Case Study: Successful Fabless & Foundry Collaboration

Wu will describe Xilinx’s strategy for riding the leading edge of each new process node to deliver pioneering All Programmable technology innovations.  He will highlight critical success factors for fabless-foundry collaboration with a case study of the world’s first 28nm FPGAs.

Session 4: Advanced Packaging and Progress in 3D Integration

Tuesday, June 5

2:15 – 3:45 p.m., The Encore at The Wynn Las Vegas

The Evolution of 3D ICs: Leaping Ahead of Moore’s Law to Deliver a 6.8B Transistor Device

Bharathi’s talk will focus on the evolution 3D ICs, comparative approaches by industry pioneers, and a 28nm 3D IC case study of the world’s highest capacity FPGA and first heterogeneous 3D FPGA , both built using Xilinx’s revolutionary stacked silicon interconnect (SSI) technology.  The case study will cover technology, applications and power benefits. It will conclude with a 3D standards call to action for our industry.
