Overview of A42MX24-3PQG208I – MX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC 176 208-BFQFP
The A42MX24-3PQG208I is a Microchip Technology MX family field programmable gate array (FPGA) supplied in a 208-pin BFQFP package. It provides reprogrammable logic resources suitable for industrial applications, offering a combination of logic elements, CLBs and I/O density for custom digital designs.
Key architectural data points include 912 logic element cells organized with 1,890 CLBs and approximately 36,000 gates, with 176 user I/O pins and a supply voltage range of 3 V to 5.5 V. The device is rated for industrial operating temperatures from −40 °C to 85 °C and is RoHS compliant.
Key Features
- Logic Capacity — 912 logic element cells and 1,890 CLBs delivering approximately 36,000 gates for implementing custom digital logic and control functions.
- I/O Density — 176 user I/O pins to support a broad mix of peripherals, interfaces and external devices.
- Memory — No on-chip RAM (0 total RAM bits), enabling designs that rely on external memory or require purely combinational/registered logic resources.
- Power Supply — Flexible supply voltage range from 3 V to 5.5 V to accommodate a variety of system power architectures.
- Package and Mounting — 208-BFQFP package (supplier device package 208-PQFP, 28×28) in a surface-mount form factor for standard PCB assembly.
- Industrial Temperature Range — Rated for operation from −40 °C to 85 °C for use in industrial environments.
- Regulatory — RoHS compliant for environmental and manufacturing requirements.
Typical Applications
- Industrial Control — Implement custom control logic, state machines and interface bridging in automation equipment, taking advantage of the industrial temperature rating and plentiful I/O.
- Communication Interfaces — Use the device’s I/O density to implement protocol adaptation, parallel-to-serial bridging or custom bus interfaces.
- Sensor and Peripheral Aggregation — Consolidate multiple sensor inputs and peripheral signals into programmable logic for preprocessing and deterministic I/O handling.
- Human-Machine Interfaces — Drive custom front-end logic and button/LED handling where configurable glue logic and moderate gate capacity are required.
Unique Advantages
- Balanced Logic and I/O — A combination of 912 logic element cells and 176 I/O pins supports mid-range designs that need both logic resources and external connectivity.
- Industrial Robustness — Specified for −40 °C to 85 °C operation and supplied in a surface-mount 208-pin BFQFP package suitable for industrial PCBs.
- Flexible Power Integration — Broad 3 V to 5.5 V supply range simplifies integration with diverse system power rails.
- Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliance supports modern manufacturing and environmental requirements.
- Compact Package — 208-PQFP (28×28) supplier package provides a high-pin-count option without a large board footprint.
