Prototype with up to 288 Million Gates

Hardware prototyping continues to ride a popular wave of increased capacity made possible with each new generation of FPGA devices. The folks at Aldec now have an FPGA prototyping board that holds 72 millions gates, and you can chain four boards together to max out at 288 million gates, thanks to the new Xilinx Virtex-7 2000T FPGAs.

A big benefit of prototyping is to get your RTL code into hardware sooner where it can be run very quickly to validate your design concept and even test out early software.

Full Press Release

We've blogged quite a bit about FPGA Prototyping here on SemiWiki.
