A40MX04-PLG68M

The A40MX04-PLG68M is a military-grade MX Field Programmable Gate Array from Microchip Technology supplied in a 68‑lead LCC (J‑lead) surface-mount package. It provides 547 logic elements (CLBs), approximately 6,000 gates of logic capacity and 57 general-purpose I/O for board-level digital design.

Designed for use where extended temperature range and robust supply tolerance are required, the device operates from 3 V to 5.5 V and across an operating temperature range of -55 °C to 125 °C. The part is RoHS compliant and offered in a compact 68‑PLCC footprint (24.23 × 24.23 mm) as the supplier device package.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 547 logic elements providing approximately 6,000 gates for implementing moderate-complexity logic and glue functions.
• I/O — 57 user I/O pins to support multiple peripheral interfaces and board-level signal routing.
• Power — Wide supply voltage range from 3 V to 5.5 V for compatibility with a variety of legacy and modern systems.
• Package — 68‑lead LCC (J‑lead) surface-mount package; supplier device package listed as 68‑PLCC (24.23 × 24.23 mm) for compact board layouts and PLCC-compatible footprints.
• Temperature & Grade — Military-grade device rated for operation from -55 °C to 125 °C for high-reliability and harsh-environment applications.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant to address environmental and manufacturing requirements.
• On-chip Memory — No dedicated on-chip RAM (Total RAM Bits: 0), useful where external memory or deterministic logic-only implementations are required.

Typical Applications

• Military and defense systems — Suitable for embedded logic, protocol bridging, and control functions where military-grade temperature range and reliability are required.
• Harsh-environment embedded equipment — Use in applications that demand operation from -55 °C to 125 °C and wide supply tolerance from 3 V to 5.5 V.
• Board-level interface and glue logic — 57 I/O and 547 logic elements allow consolidation of interface functions and signal conditioning on compact PCBs.
• PLCC/legacy footprint replacements — 68‑lead package format and PLCC-compatible dimensions support retrofit and board-level redesigns requiring a compact surface-mount FPGA.

Unique Advantages

• Military-grade thermal tolerance: Rated from -55 °C to 125 °C to meet demanding temperature requirements for rugged systems.
