A42MX24-TQG176M

The A42MX24-TQG176M is a military-grade MX Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) IC from Microchip Technology packaged in a 176-LQFP (176-TQFP, 24×24) surface-mount package. It provides a balanced mix of logic resources, I/O density and wide supply-voltage tolerance for embedded designs that require rugged operating temperature and military classification.

With 912 logic elements, approximately 36,000 gates and 150 I/O pins, this device targets applications demanding deterministic programmable logic, a broad operating temperature window and flexible power rails from 3.0 V to 5.5 V.

Key Features

• Logic Resources  912 logic elements and approximately 36,000 gates provide the programmable fabric to implement custom logic, control and interfacing functions.
• I/O Density  150 general-purpose I/Os support extensive peripheral connections and interface routing in a single device.
• Power Supply Range  Operates across a wide 3.0 V to 5.5 V supply window to accommodate diverse board-level power architectures.
• No Embedded RAM  Total on-chip RAM bits: 0, for designs that use external memory or are optimized for pure logic and I/O tasks.
• Package and Mounting  176-pin LQFP (supplier package listed as 176-TQFP 24×24) in a surface-mount form factor for compact PCB layouts and standard assembly flow.
• Temperature and Grade  Military grade with an operating temperature range of −55°C to 125°C for applications requiring extended temperature tolerance.
• Environmental Compliance  RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Military and Aerospace Systems  Use in control, interface and signal-processing roles where military-grade temperature range and classification are required.
• Embedded Interface Bridges  Implement custom protocol bridging and I/O aggregation with the device’s 150 I/O pins and programmable logic.
• Communications and Control  Deterministic logic resources and flexible supply voltage make the FPGA suitable for timing-critical control and communications glue logic.

Unique Advantages

• Military-Grade Robustness:  Specified grade and −55°C to 125°C operation support demanding environmental deployments.
• Flexible Power Options:  3.0 V to 5.5 V supply range enables integration into a variety of legacy and modern power domains.
• High I/O Count in a Compact Package:  150 I/Os in a 176-LQFP footprint simplify board routing and reduce the need for external multiplexing.
• Deterministic Logic Capacity:  912 logic elements and ~36,000 gates give designers a clearly defined resource set for implementing control, glue logic and custom state machines.
• Surface-Mount Package:  Standard SMD form factor eases automated assembly and supports dense PCB layouts.
• RoHS Compliance:  Meets environmental compliance requirements for lead-free manufacturing processes.
