Overview of A42MX09-TQG176A – MX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC 104 176-LQFP
The A42MX09-TQG176A is an MX family field programmable gate array (FPGA) in a 176-pin LQFP package optimized for embedded control and interface applications. It provides a compact programmable-logic resource with 336 logic elements and approximately 14,000 gates, combined with a broad I/O count and automotive-grade qualification for deployment in demanding environments.
This device targets applications that require flexible digital logic, multiple external interfaces and robust operating margins, delivering a balance of integration, I/O capability and environmental qualification.
Key Features
- Programmable Logic 336 logic elements and approximately 14,000 gates provide on-chip configurable logic for glue logic, protocol bridging and custom state machines.
- I/O Capacity 104 general-purpose I/O pins enable multiple device interfaces, sensor connections and actuator controls without immediate external multiplexing.
- Voltage Supply Supports a wide supply range from 3 V to 5.25 V, allowing compatibility with common logic domains and legacy interfaces.
- Package & Mounting 176-LQFP (supplier device package: 176-TQFP, 24×24 mm) in a surface-mount form factor for board-level integration where foot‑print and thermal considerations are managed.
- Automotive Qualification Grade: Automotive with AEC-Q100 qualification for applications requiring recognized automotive component reliability.
- Operating Range Rated for operation from −40 °C to 125 °C to meet extended temperature requirements in automotive and industrial environments.
- Regulatory Compliance RoHS compliant for lead-free manufacturing processes and international environmental standards.
Typical Applications
- Automotive Control Modules Use the A42MX09-TQG176A for in-vehicle control logic and interface handling where AEC-Q100 qualification and extended temperature range are required.
- Sensor and Actuator Interfaces 104 I/O pins allow direct connectivity to multiple sensors and actuators for signal conditioning, aggregation and protocol translation.
- Custom Protocol Bridging Programmable logic resources enable implementation of protocol conversion and timing-critical glue logic between legacy and modern subsystems.
- Embedded Control and State Machines Deploy the FPGA for deterministic control tasks and application-specific finite-state machines that benefit from reprogrammability.
Unique Advantages
- Automotive-Ready Qualification: AEC-Q100 qualification and automotive grade designation provide traceable reliability for vehicle electronics and other high-reliability applications.
- Flexible I/O Count: 104 I/O pins reduce the need for external I/O expanders and simplify board-level routing for multi-sensor and multi-actuator designs.
- Wide Supply Compatibility: 3 V to 5.25 V supply range allows integration with a variety of logic families and legacy systems without additional power conversion.
- Extended Temperature Operation: −40 °C to 125 °C rating supports harsh-environment deployments in automotive and industrial contexts.
- Compact, Surface-Mount Package: 176-LQFP (24×24 mm supplier TQFP footprint) offers a balance of pin count and board space for space-constrained designs.
- Environmentally Compliant: RoHS compliance helps meet regulatory and customer requirements for lead-free manufacturing.
