The folks at Xilinx are all jolly happy at the moment because their
Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC has just won the Microprocessor Report Analyst Choice Award for 2012.
As is illustrated in the rather cool image below, the Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC combines hardware programmability, software programmability, and I/O programmability. As a result, Zynq-7000 devices offer unmatched levels of systems integration, performance, and flexibility while offering system designers reduced power consumption, lower bill-of-materials and faster time-to-market.
