A42MX09-1VQ100

The A42MX09-1VQ100 is an MX-series Field Programmable Gate Array from Microchip Technology designed for commercial electronic applications. It offers a compact 100-TQFP package with a balance of logic density and I/O count for control, interfacing and glue-logic tasks.

Key attributes include a low-density logic fabric (approximately 336 logic elements / 14,000 gates), 83 general-purpose I/O pins, broad single supply support, and standard commercial operating range—making it suitable for a wide range of cost-sensitive, board-level FPGA uses.

Key Features

• Core Logic  Approximately 336 logic elements and 14,000 gates provide a modest programmable fabric for combinational and sequential logic tasks.
• I/O Capability  83 general-purpose I/O pins support a variety of peripheral interfaces and board-level signal routing.
• Package & Mounting  100-TQFP package (supplier device package: 100-VQFP, 14×14) in a surface-mount form factor for standard PCB assembly.
• Power  Wide supply range from 3 V to 5.25 V to accommodate common 3.3 V and 5 V system designs.
• Grade & Temperature  Commercial grade device rated for operation from 0 °C to 70 °C.
• Environmental Compliance  RoHS compliant to meet standard environmental and assembly requirements.

Typical Applications

• Consumer Electronics  Implement control logic, peripheral interfacing, or custom signal processing in space-constrained consumer devices.
• Embedded Control  Provide glue logic and mid-level control functions for embedded systems requiring flexible I/O mapping and programmable logic.
• Prototyping & Evaluation  Use as a development target for evaluating small FPGA-based architectures or proof-of-concept designs.
• Interface & Bridge Functions  Serve as protocol translators, bus bridges, or I/O expanders in mixed-voltage systems thanks to its 3 V–5.25 V supply range.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, SMT-friendly package: 100-TQFP in a 14×14 footprint enables board-level integration without large-area packages.
• Balanced logic and I/O: ~336 logic elements combined with 83 I/Os provide a practical trade-off for control and interfacing tasks.
• Flexible supply compatibility: 3 V to 5.25 V range simplifies integration into both 3.3 V and 5 V platforms.
• Commercial temperature rating: Rated 0 °C to 70 °C for standard product environments and consumer applications.
• Regulatory-friendly: RoHS compliance supports modern electronics manufacturing and environmental requirements.
