Xilinx's sales declined 8 percent sequentially during the December quarter, impacted by particularly weak business from large communications customers. The Company's profitability as measured by gross margin and cash flow remained robust.  December quarter gross margin was 65.8 percent and operating cash flow for the quarter was $181.0 million. Operating cash flow for calendar year 2011 was $863.2 million, a new Company record.  "We experienced strong growth in our Virtex®-6 and Spartan®-6 product families and achieved significant milestones in our 28-nm rollout, in spite of challenging industry conditions.  During the quarter, we commenced shipments of the PLD industry's first Stacked Silicon Interconnect (SSI) product as well as the industry's first embedded systems platform, the Zynq-7000 product family," said Moshe Gavrielov, Xilinx President and Chief Executive Officer.  "Xilinx is not only expanding its addressable market but also paving the way for the entire semiconductor industry with these innovative new offerings."
