A40MX02-PL68I

Overview

The A40MX02-PLG68I is a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from the Microchip MX series, designed as a high-capacity single-chip ASIC alternative. It features 295 Logic Elements and approximately 3,000 system gates within a 68-pin PLCC package. The device supports mixed-voltage operation with a core supply of 3.3V and I/Os compatible with 5.0V standards. It operates within a commercial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and includes up to 2.5 kbits of configurable dual-port SRAM for embedded memory applications.

Feature Summary

• Supports mixed-voltage operation allowing 3.3V core and 5.0V I/O compatibility
• Includes configurable dual-port SRAM for embedded logic functions
• Features fast wide-decode circuitry for deterministic timing control

Applications

• High-capacity single-chip ASIC replacement designs
• Mixed-voltage interface bridging between 3.3V and 5.0V domains
• Prototyping for complex digital logic systems requiring pin locking

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official datasheets to confirm temperature grade and package variant. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements for your assembly process. Check for recent Product Change Notifications regarding packaging or manufacturing site updates before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a small footprint FPGA with mixed-voltage I/O capability is required. Ensure the design utilizes the available 57 user-programmable I/O pins efficiently. Consider the PLCC-68 package constraints for PCB layout and thermal management during the initial hardware design phase.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Microchip A40MX family, which provides non-volatile configuration capabilities. It serves as a drop-in replacement for many standard ASICs in industrial and commercial applications. The MX series is known for its ease of integration and support for up to 100% resource utilization and pin locking.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other variants within the A40MX02 series such as A40MX02-1PLG68M or A40MX02-3PLG68I, depending on required temperature ranges. Verify pin compatibility and configuration file integrity when migrating between different speed grades or temperature ratings.
