| | The use of FPGAs has revolutionized the way DSP subsystems are configured. With a large number of gates, hardware multipliers and high-speed serial interfaces, an FPGA can outperform a microprocessor by a factor of ten or more. FPGAs are applicable to a variety of applications including RADAR, signal intelligence and image processing that have elements of computing that are characterized by repetitive fixed-point processing that can be expressed in highly parallel form. FFTs, pulse compression, filters, and digital down converters are examples of functions that FPGAs perform well. | 
| In deployed systems, this technical advantage translates to smaller, lower-power and lower-cost systems. |
