A40MX02-1PLG68I

Overview

The A40MX02-1PLG68I is a Microchip Technology MX series Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) housed in a 68-pin PLCC package. It features 6,000 system gates and supports up to 57 I/O pins. The device operates within supply voltage ranges of 3V to 3.6V or 4.75V to 5.25V. Designed for industrial applications, it functions reliably across a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Non-volatile Flash-based architecture enabling instant-on functionality without external configuration memory.
• Supports high-speed serial communication protocols including SPI, I2C, and UART interfaces.
• Integrated JTAG boundary scan capability for comprehensive board-level testing and debugging.

Applications

• Industrial automation control systems
• Embedded logic replacement in legacy hardware designs
• Prototyping for complex digital signal processing tasks

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' confirms the extended industrial temperature rating (-40°C to +85°C). Confirm the package type matches the required PCB footprint. Check current RoHS compliance status against latest manufacturer notices before finalizing procurement specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this model when non-volatile configuration and low power consumption are critical. Compare gate counts with the A40MX04 variant if additional logic resources are needed. Ensure the design fits within the 6,000 gate limit and utilizes the available 57 I/O pins effectively.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Microchip MX family of Flash FPGAs. It shares architectural similarities with the A40MX04 but offers reduced logic density. The PLG68 designation indicates a plastic leaded chip carrier package suitable for surface-mount assembly.

Replacement Considerations

The A40MX02-1FT256I serves as a pin-compatible alternative offering higher I/O count in a TQFP package. Verify pin mapping compatibility before substituting different package types.
