A40MX02-PQG100A

Overview

The A40MX02-PQG100A is a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) from the Microchip MX family, housed in a 100-pin PQFP package. It features approximately 3,000 system gates and 295 configurable logic blocks (CLBs). The device supports dual voltage operation at 3V to 3.6V and 4.75V to 5.25V. Key electrical parameters include a maximum clock frequency of 48.24 MHz and a CLB delay of 3.72 ns. It offers up to 2.5 kbits of configurable dual-port SRAM and supports up to 57 user-programmable I/O pins.

Feature Summary

• Functions as a single-chip ASIC alternative with high capacity programmable logic.
• Integrates fast wide-decode circuitry for efficient address decoding.
• Supports high-performance FIFO implementations with low access latency.

Applications

• General-purpose digital logic prototyping
• Interface bridging between different voltage domains
• Custom state machine implementation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official Microchip documentation to confirm pinout compatibility and electrical characteristics. Ensure the source provides valid RoHS compliance data and moisture sensitivity level information before procurement. Cross-reference the part number with current distributor listings to confirm availability status.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a moderate logic density around 3,000 gates is required within a 100-pin footprint. Consider the dual-voltage capability if the design requires flexibility between 3.3V and 5V systems. Evaluate the 48.24 MHz performance limit against the target application's timing requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the A40MX series, which serves as a bridge between complex CPLDs and larger FPGAs. The MX family is known for its non-volatile flash technology, allowing instant-on functionality without external configuration memory. It targets applications needing reprogrammability with lower power consumption than traditional SRAM-based FPGAs.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same package and logic density include the A40MX02-2PQG100 or A40MX02-FVQ100B. Verify that any replacement maintains the 100-pin PQFP form factor and compatible voltage ranges. Check for any pinout differences between variants in the A40MX02 lineup.
