Overview of A42MX09-2PQG160 – MX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC 101 160-BQFP
The A42MX09-2PQG160 is a field programmable gate array (FPGA) IC manufactured by Microchip Technology. It delivers a compact, reconfigurable logic solution with defined logic capacity, I/O density and commercial-grade operating limits for general-purpose embedded designs.
This device provides 336 logic element cells (equivalent to 14,000 gates) and 101 user I/O pins in a 160-BQFP surface-mount package, supporting supply rails from 3 V to 5.25 V and operation across a commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C.
Key Features
- Logic Capacity 336 logic element cells and 14,000 gates, delivering a deterministic, reconfigurable logic fabric for small-to-moderate designs.
- I/O Count 101 user I/O pins provide ample external connectivity for interfaces, control signals and peripheral integration.
- Memory No embedded on-chip RAM (total RAM bits = 0), suitable for designs that prioritize combinational and distributed logic resources.
- Power Supports a wide supply voltage range from 3 V to 5.25 V to accommodate common logic supply domains.
- Package & Mounting 160-BQFP (supplier package: 160-PQFP, 28×28) in a surface-mount form factor for compact board-level integration.
- Temperature & Grade Commercial grade operation from 0°C to 70°C for standard electronics applications.
- Environmental Compliance RoHS compliant to support lead-free manufacturing requirements.
Typical Applications
- Embedded Control and Glue Logic Use the device to implement custom control paths and glue logic where 336 logic element cells and up to 101 I/O are required.
- Prototyping and Development A reconfigurable platform for early-stage hardware prototypes that require programmable logic without embedded RAM.
- Commercial Electronics Suitable for consumer and commercial designs operating from 3 V to 5.25 V within a 0°C to 70°C temperature window.
Unique Advantages
- Compact, Surface-Mount Package 160-BQFP surface-mount packaging enables integration into space-constrained PCBs while maintaining a high I/O count.
- Defined Logic and Gate Count Clear, quantifiable resources—336 logic element cells and 14,000 gates—make capacity planning straightforward for deterministic logic designs.
- Flexible Supply Range Operates from 3 V to 5.25 V, allowing compatibility with a range of common logic voltage domains.
- Commercial Temperature Operation Rated for 0°C to 70°C for deployments in standard commercial environments.
- RoHS Compliant Conforms to lead-free manufacturing requirements to support modern PCB assembly processes.
- Logic-Centric Architecture With no embedded on-chip RAM, the device is optimized for applications focused on combinational and sequential logic resources.
