A40MX02-2PLG68I

Overview

The A40MX02-2PLG68I 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 a supply voltage range of 3V to 3.6V or 4.75V to 5.25V. It is rated for an industrial operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Non-volatile flash-based FPGA architecture enabling instant-on functionality without external configuration memory.
• Supports high-density logic implementation with 6,000 system gates for complex digital designs.
• Industrial-grade thermal rating suitable for demanding environmental conditions.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring reliable programmable logic.
• Communication interface adapters and protocol converters.
• Consumer electronics logic replacement and enhancement.

Procurement Notes

Verify the suffix 'I' confirms the extended industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). Confirm the '2' speed grade matches project timing requirements. Ensure the PLG68 package footprint aligns with PCB layout specifications before ordering.

Selection Notes

Select this model when non-volatile configuration and instant-on operation are required. Compare gate counts against A40MX01 or A40MX03 variants if resource utilization differs. Verify voltage domain compatibility with the 3V or 5V supply options specified in the datasheet.

Part Context

This component belongs to the MX family of low-power, non-volatile FPGAs. It serves as a bridge between discrete logic and complex microprocessors, offering reprogrammability with the persistence of flash memory. The PLG68 package provides a compact solution for surface-mount assembly.

Replacement Considerations

A40MX02-2PLG68 is the commercial temperature variant. A40MX04-1PLG68 offers higher density but different speed characteristics. Cross-check pinouts and electrical parameters before substituting.
