A42MX24-PQG208I

The A42MX24-PQG208I is an MX field programmable gate array (FPGA) from Microchip Technology supplied in a 208-BFQFP package. It provides a compact, industrial-grade programmable logic option with a broad supply voltage window and wide operating temperature range for deployment in rugged embedded systems.

This device combines mid-range logic capacity with a large number of general-purpose I/O, making it suitable for industrial control and custom interfacing tasks where deterministic, hardware-level customization matters.

Key Features

• Logic Capacity — 912 logic elements and approximately 36,000 gates provide mid-range programmable logic resources for glue logic, state machines, and custom control functions.
• I/O Density — 176 general-purpose I/O pins support extensive peripheral and bus interfacing without needing external I/O expanders.
• Configurable Blocks — 1,890 configurable logic blocks (as listed) give flexible resource mapping for combinational and sequential logic implementations.
• Power Supply Range — Operates from 3 V to 5.5 V, accommodating a range of legacy and modern system power rails.
• Industrial Temperature Range — Rated for operation from −40°C to 85°C to meet typical industrial environment requirements.
• Package and Mounting — Surface-mount 208-BFQFP package; supplier device package listed as 208-PQFP (28x28), enabling compact PCB layouts for space-constrained designs.
• Compliance — RoHS-compliant construction supports regulatory and environmental requirements for commercial and industrial products.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control — Implement custom state machines, motor-control interfaces, and deterministic timing logic for factory automation and process control equipment.
• Sensor and Actuator Interfacing — Aggregate and condition multiple sensor inputs or drive actuator outputs with high I/O counts and configurable logic.
• Embedded System Glue Logic — Bridge disparate buses and peripherals or implement protocol adapters and custom hardware accelerators in embedded designs.
• Prototyping and Low-Density Integration — Rapidly iterate hardware functions and consolidate discrete logic into a single programmable device for proof-of-concept and low-volume products.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, Industrial-Grade Package: The 208-BFQFP surface-mount package with 176 I/O enables high integration in space-limited industrial boards while meeting −40°C to 85°C operation.
• Wide Supply Flexibility: 3 V to 5.5 V supply range supports interoperability with a variety of system power rails and legacy interfaces.
• Balanced Logic Resources: 912 logic elements and ~36,000 gates offer sufficient capacity for mid-complexity designs without unnecessary overhead.
• High I/O Count: 176 I/O pins reduce the need for additional interface components, simplifying BOM and PCB routing for complex peripheral sets.
• Environmentally Compliant: RoHS compliance aligns with common environmental requirements for commercial and industrial products.
