A42MX24-3PLG84

The A42MX24-3PLG84 is a commercial-grade MX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from Microchip Technology, offered in an 84-pin LCC (J-lead) surface-mount package. It delivers a mid-range integration of programmable logic and I/O resources for commercial embedded applications that require flexible I/O, moderate gate count, and standard supply voltage operation.

Key Features

• Core / Logic Capacity — Provides 36,000 gates and 912 logic elements for implementing custom combinational and sequential logic functions.
• I/O Density — 72 user I/O pins to support multiple peripheral interfaces and board-level connectivity options.
• On-chip Memory — No embedded RAM is reported (Total RAM Bits: 0), suitable for designs that rely on external memory or are RAM-free.
• Voltage Range — Operates from 3 V to 5.25 V, covering common single-supply levels used in commercial electronic systems.
• Package & Mounting — 84-LCC (J-Lead) surface-mount package; supplier device package listed as 84-PLCC (29.31 × 29.31 mm) to support compact PCB layouts.
• Temperature & Grade — Commercial grade with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 70 °C.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant to meet common environmental requirements.

Typical Applications

• Commercial embedded systems — Implement custom logic and control functions where moderate gate count and multiple I/Os are required within a commercial temperature envelope.
• Interface bridging and protocol glue logic — Use the 72 I/O pins to connect and translate between peripherals or buses in board-level designs.
• Control and user-interface modules — Ideal for creating custom control logic, button/LED handling, or peripheral management in consumer and commercial equipment.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced logic capacity: 36,000 gates and 912 logic elements provide a mid-range resource set suitable for many custom logic tasks without unnecessary complexity.
• Generous I/O count: 72 I/O pins enable broad peripheral connectivity and flexible board partitioning for complex interfaces.
• Standard voltage compatibility: Wide 3 V to 5.25 V supply range supports common commercial power rails and simplifies integration with legacy devices.
• Compact surface-mount packaging: 84-LCC (J-Lead) package with 84-PLCC (29.31 × 29.31 mm) footprint supports dense board layouts and automated assembly.
• Commercial temperature suitability: Specified 0 °C to 70 °C operation aligns with a broad set of commercial-product requirements.
• RoHS compliant: Meets environmental compliance expectations for commercial electronics manufacturing.

Why Choose A42MX24-3PLG84?

The A42MX24-3PLG84 is positioned for designers seeking a Microchip Technology FPGA with a mid-range logic footprint, substantial I/O capability, and straightforward integration into commercial electronics. Its combination of 36,000 gates, 912 logic elements, and a 72-pin I/O complement makes it well suited to applications that require moderate programmable logic and flexible interfacing while operating from standard 3 V–5.25 V supplies.

Choose this device when you need a RoHS-compliant, surface-mount FPGA in an 84-LCC (J-Lead) package for commercial embedded designs that operate within a 0 °C to 70 °C range and that either do not require on-chip RAM or plan to use external memory resources.
