"Field Programmable Gate Array" - A digital integrated circuit designed to be configured after manufacture. Essentially allows one chip to be turned into a different chip. FPGAs are a highly power efficient method of mining Bitcoins, though they have a significantly higher initial cost than many alternatives.
Xilinx and Altera are the two main FPGA vendors.
