The three generations of CDF silicon vertex detectors, SVX, SVX{prime}, and SVX II, are described. SVX, which operated during Tevatron run Ia, achieved 10.6 {mu}m resolution in r {minus} {phi}. SVX{prime} is a radiation-hard device for run Ib with a similar but improved mechanical design and improved signal/noise. SVX II, which will be installed for run II, will track in three dimensions with radiation tolerance and electronics appropriate to a Main Injector environment.
