Overview of A42MX09-1PQ160I – MX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC 101 160-BQFP
The A42MX09-1PQ160I is an MX family field programmable gate array (FPGA) supplied in a 160-BQFP surface-mount package. It provides a compact, industrial-grade programmable logic option with up to 101 I/O pins and a supply range of 3 V to 5.5 V.
Designed for embedded system integration, this device offers a mix of logic capacity and flexible I/O in a 160-pin PQFP footprint, with operation specified from −40 °C to 85 °C and RoHS compliance for regulatory compatibility.
Key Features
- Core Logic — 336 logic element cells delivering approximately 14,000 equivalent gates for implementing custom logic and control functions.
- I/O Density — 101 input/output pins to support multiple peripheral interfaces and signal routing in compact designs.
- Package & Mounting — 160-BQFP (supplier device package: 160-PQFP, 28 × 28 mm) in a surface-mount format for board-level assembly.
- Power Supply Range — Operates from 3 V to 5.5 V, accommodating common system power rails and allowing flexibility in mixed-voltage environments.
- Industrial Temperature Rating — Specified for −40 °C to 85 °C operation, suitable for industrial temperature environments.
- Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant, supporting lead-free assembly and regulatory requirements.
Unique Advantages
- Compact, high-density logic: 336 logic element cells and ~14,000 gates provide usable programmable capability in a small BQFP footprint, reducing board area compared with discrete logic solutions.
- Generous I/O in a PQFP package: 101 I/O pins enable integration of multiple peripherals and interfaces without moving to larger, more expensive packages.
- Wide supply tolerance: 3 V to 5.5 V operation allows deployment across systems with different nominal supply voltages, simplifying power design.
- Industrial-ready thermal range: Rated −40 °C to 85 °C to meet common industrial application requirements for temperature tolerance and reliability.
- Surface-mount 160-BQFP: Offers a familiar, manufacturable package for automated PCB assembly while maintaining high pin count and signal density.
- RoHS compliant: Supports lead-free manufacturing and environmental compliance for modern production workflows.
