A42MX36-1BG272

The A42MX36-1BG272 is an MX-series field programmable gate array (FPGA) from Microchip Technology in a 272-ball BGA package. It provides on-chip programmable logic, embedded memory and a high I/O count in a commercial-grade surface-mount package.

This device targets commercial applications that require flexible, reconfigurable logic with a clear set of device-level characteristics: 1,184 logic elements, approximately 2,560 bits of on-chip RAM, 202 I/O pins and an operating voltage range of 3 V to 5.25 V.

Key Features

• Core Logic  1,184 logic elements provide the programmable resources for custom digital functions and glue logic.
• Gate Density  54,000 gates to implement medium-complexity digital designs.
• Embedded Memory  Approximately 2,560 bits of on-chip RAM for small lookup tables, FIFOs or state storage.
• I/O  202 general-purpose I/O pins to support multiple interfaces, parallel buses and board-level routing.
• Package & Mounting  272-BBGA surface-mount package (supplier device package: 272-PBGA, 27×27) for compact board integration.
• Power  Wide supply voltage support from 3 V to 5.25 V to accommodate common commercial logic rails.
• Temperature & Grade  Commercial grade with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 70 °C.
• RoHS Compliance  RoHS-compliant construction meets typical environmental directive requirements.

Typical Applications

• Commercial Embedded Systems  Use as reconfigurable logic for control, timing and custom processing in commercial electronic products operating within 0 °C to 70 °C.
• I/O Expansion and Interface Bridging  High I/O count (202 pins) supports board-level interface conversion, bus bridging and parallel peripheral integration.
• Prototyping and Development  Medium-density logic and on-chip RAM make the device suitable for proof-of-concept designs and FPGA-based prototypes.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Logic and Memory:  1,184 logic elements combined with on-chip RAM provide a compact platform for mid-range programmable logic tasks.
• High I/O Density:  202 I/O pins enable flexible interfacing options without needing extra I/O expander components.
• Simplified Board Integration:  Surface-mount 272-BBGA package allows for a compact footprint and reliable soldered connections on modern PCBs.
• Versatile Power Range:  3 V to 5.25 V supply compatibility reduces constraints when integrating with common commercial voltage domains.
• Commercial-Grade Reliability:  Specified 0 °C to 70 °C operating range aligns with typical commercial application environments.
• Regulatory Readiness:  RoHS compliance supports environmental and manufacturing requirements for many markets.
