EX64-FTQG64

The EX64-FTQG64 from Microchip Technology is a field programmable gate array (FPGA) IC designed for compact commercial embedded applications. It offers 128 logic elements and 41 general-purpose I/O in a 64-pin LQFP footprint, delivering configurable logic and interfacing flexibility for board-level designs.

Built for surface-mount assembly with a 2.3 V to 2.7 V supply range and commercial-grade operating temperature (0 °C to 70 °C), the EX64-FTQG64 provides a small, power-conscious programmable logic option for systems that require moderate logic density and generous I/O count.

Key Features

• Core Logic  128 logic elements providing programmable logic resources suitable for glue logic, control functions, and small-scale state machines.
• Gate Density  Approximately 3,000 gates to implement combinational and sequential logic in a compact device.
• I/O Capability  41 user I/O pins that enable diverse peripheral interfacing and signal routing without extensive external components.
• Power  Single-supply operation from 2.3 V to 2.7 V for compatibility with low-voltage system domains.
• Package & Mounting  64-LQFP surface-mount package (supplier lists 64-TQFP 10×10) for dense PCB layouts and straightforward assembly.
• Operating Range & Grade  Commercial temperature range of 0 °C to 70 °C and commercial-grade classification for general embedded product lines.
• Compliance  RoHS compliant for lead-free manufacturing and regulatory alignment.

Typical Applications

• Commercial Embedded Systems  Use the EX64-FTQG64 for compact control and interface functions where moderate programmable logic and multiple I/O are required.
• Consumer Electronics  Implement custom glue logic and peripheral interfacing in consumer devices while maintaining a small board footprint.
• Prototyping and Development  Leverage the device’s configurable logic and accessible package for quick iteration of digital functions and proof-of-concept designs.
• I/O Expansion and Signal Conditioning  Deploy the device to consolidate I/O routing, protocol translation, and signal conditioning tasks on a single programmable device.

Unique Advantages

• Compact 64-pin LQFP package: Easier placement on space-constrained PCBs while keeping I/O accessible for system integration.
• Moderate logic capacity: 128 logic elements and ~3,000 gates provide a balance between capability and cost for common glue-logic tasks.
• Generous I/O count: 41 I/O pins reduce the need for external I/O expanders and simplify board-level interfacing.
• Low-voltage operation: 2.3 V to 2.7 V supply supports integration into modern low-voltage platforms.
• Commercial-grade suitability: Operates across 0 °C to 70 °C, aligning with general-purpose embedded product requirements.
• RoHS compliant: Facilitates lead-free manufacturing and regulatory compliance for commercial products.
