FPGAs are integrated circuits one can further configured after manufacturing. They find use as accelerators in large-scale high performance computing (HPC) and supercomputing environments, as well as cloud computing datacentres and Internet of Things (IoT) hardware. Xilinx says the ACAP goes a step beyond FPGAs. A "highly integrated multi-core heterogeneous compute platform," the ACAP can not only be changed at the hardware level to adapt to a range of applications and workloads, but adapts dynamically during operations for "levels of performance and performance per-watt that is unmatched by CPUs or GPUs."
