A40MX02-1PQG100

Overview

The A40MX02-1PQG100 is a field-programmable gate array from the Microchip MX series, utilizing anti-fuse technology for non-volatile configuration. It features 3000 system gates and 547 logic elements within a 100-pin PQFP package. The device supports dual voltage operation at 3.3 V (3.0 V to 3.6 V) and 5 V (4.75 V to 5.25 V). It provides 57 general-purpose I/Os and operates within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. The component includes hardware security features such as bitstream encryption and password protection.

Feature Summary

• Anti-fuse architecture ensures permanent configuration without volatile memory requirements.
• Integrated hardware security mechanisms including bitstream encryption and access control.
• Supports both 3.3 V and 5 V power supply domains for flexible interface compatibility.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring secure, non-volatile logic implementation.
• Automotive electronics applications compatible with 5 V automotive standards.
• Communication infrastructure equipment needing reliable programmable logic.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation against official Microchip documentation to confirm voltage and temperature ratings. Confirm moisture sensitivity level handling requirements prior to assembly. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact speed grade and package variant required for the design.

Selection Notes

Select this model for designs requiring 3000 system gates with a 100-pin surface-mount footprint. Choose the -1 speed grade if timing constraints align with its specified performance characteristics. Consider the -I variant if an extended industrial temperature range is necessary for the application environment.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Actel MX family, now manufactured by Microchip Technology. The MX series is distinguished by its use of silicon-gate anti-fuse technology, which provides high reliability and security compared to volatile FPGA technologies. It serves as a drop-in replacement for older PAL/GAL devices in legacy designs.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitutes include the A40MX02-2PQG100 for higher speed grades and the A40MX02-1PQG100I for industrial temperature ranges. Verify pinout compatibility when considering these alternatives.
