Unique Technologies:
tekX:  Allows fabric agnosticism in future products
FPGA culture: FPGAs used on every product allows cost-effective and schedule-preserving customization.
Intellectual Property (IP) Cores for FPGAs provide integration advantage right away, and will be common across all future products, providing huge future savings in integration time and cost.

Front-end/Back-end PMC Architecture: Unique two-part PMC design separates the protocol interface (front-end) from the standard back-end interface (PMC, XMC) and provides powerful advantages at many levels for customers who need to integrate, maintain, or upgrade multiple I/O modules. New protocol interfaces can quickly be added to existing back-ends as technology becomes available. Protocol interfaces can be upgraded with new back-end interfaces as technology demands.
