When i'm saying "industrial chips are at 28nm" i mean industrial FPGA's.

Will xilinx create industrial FPGA's at 14nm or beyond ?

First transistor cost will have to become meaningfully lower than 28nm transistor costs. That only happens at 10nm. But at that node, NRE costs are extremely expensive. Spread over low-cost low-end industrial chips - this requires a huge volume, which xilinx probably doesn't have yet.

Also couple that with 28nm being more much reliable(all the failure mechanisms increase at 10nm: electron migration from wires, thermal hot sports, transistor fin self heating), and since reliability is key for industrial - it would be hard to see industrial moving beyond 28nm.
