A40MX02-PLG68M

Overview

The A40MX02-PLG68M is a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) from the Microchip MX family, manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features 295 logic elements and approximately 3,000 system gates. The device supports mixed-voltage operation with supply voltages ranging from 4.5 V to 5.5 V for the core and I/Os. It includes up to 2.5 kbits of configurable dual-port SRAM and offers 57 user-programmable I/O pins. The component is housed in a 68-pin PLCC package and operates within temperature ranges depending on the specific grade.

Feature Summary

• Supports mixed-voltage operation allowing compatibility with both 3.3V and 5.0V systems.
• Provides deterministic timing through fast wide-decode circuitry.
• Enables up to 100% resource utilization and pin locking for design flexibility.

Applications

• High-capacity single-chip ASIC replacement
• Mixed-signal system integration
• Industrial control applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the suffix 'M' against official datasheets to confirm if it denotes a specific military or extended temperature grade, as standard commercial variants may use different suffixes. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level prior to ordering. Check for recent Product Change Notifications regarding packaging or assembly site updates.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a low-gate-count FPGA with mixed-voltage I/O capability is required. Ensure the 68-pin PLCC package fits the board layout constraints. Compare performance metrics such as clock frequency and propagation delay against application requirements. Verify that the available embedded memory meets the design needs.

Part Context

This component belongs to the A40MX series of flash-based FPGAs. It shares architectural similarities with other devices in the MX family, such as the A40MX02-PLG68I, but may differ in temperature rating or qualification standards based on the specific suffix. The series is known for non-volatile configuration and low power consumption.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other variants within the A40MX02 family, such as the A40MX02-PLG68I, provided the temperature range and voltage specifications match the design requirements. Cross-referencing with the A42MX series may be necessary for higher capacity needs, though pinouts and resources will differ significantly.
