A42MX24-2PQ208I

The A42MX24-2PQ208I is an MX family Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from Microchip Technology provided in a 208-BFQFP surface-mount package. It offers 36,000 gates and 912 logic elements with up to 176 general-purpose I/O, making it suitable for designs that require configurable digital logic and substantial I/O density.

Designed for industrial applications, the device supports a wide supply range of 3 V to 5.5 V and an operating temperature range of −40 °C to 85 °C, and is RoHS compliant.

Key Features

• Core Logic  36,000 gates and 912 logic elements provide a compact, configurable logic fabric for custom digital functions.
• I/O Density  Up to 176 I/O pins enable extensive external interfacing for peripherals, sensors, and bus connections.
• Memory  Total on-chip RAM bits: 0 (no embedded RAM bits reported in product data).
• Power  Supports a broad supply voltage range from 3 V to 5.5 V to accommodate different system power domains.
• Package & Mounting  208-BFQFP (supplier package: 208-PQFP, 28×28) in a surface-mount form factor for PCB-mounted applications.
• Temperature & Grade  Industrial-grade device rated for operation from −40 °C to 85 °C.
• Regulatory  RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Industrial control systems  Use the industrial temperature rating and configurable logic to implement control, sequencing, and I/O interfacing in industrial environments.
• I/O expansion and protocol bridging  Leverage 176 I/O pins to consolidate multiple interfaces or act as a bridge between different buses and peripherals.
• Embedded system glue logic  Implement custom glue logic and peripheral control functions using the available logic elements and gate count.

Unique Advantages

• High logic capacity: 36,000 gates and 912 logic elements enable implementation of complex custom logic without external ASICs.
• Large I/O complement: 176 I/O pins reduce the need for additional I/O expanders and simplify board-level integration.
• Wide supply voltage flexibility: Operates from 3 V to 5.5 V to fit a range of system power architectures.
• Industrial readiness: Industrial-grade temperature range of −40 °C to 85 °C supports deployment in temperature-challenging environments.
• Surface-mount convenience: 208-BFQFP package (208-PQFP, 28×28) provides a standardized, PCB-friendly footprint for compact designs.
• RoHS compliant: Meets lead-free and environmental compliance requirements for modern manufacturing.
