A40MX04-1VQ80M

Overview

The A40MX04-1VQ80M is a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from the Microchip MX family, designed as a high-capacity single-chip ASIC alternative. It features approximately 6,000 system gates and 295 Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs). The device supports mixed-voltage operation with core and I/O voltages of 3.3V or 5.0V, ensuring PCI-compliant I/O compatibility. Key performance metrics include a maximum clock frequency of 48.24 MHz and a CLB delay of 3.72 ns. It integrates up to 2.5 kbits of configurable dual-port SRAM and offers deterministic timing with user-controllable constraints.

Feature Summary

• Supports mixed-voltage operation for both core and I/O domains at 3.3V or 5.0V levels.
• Provides deterministic, user-controllable timing with full resource utilization capabilities.
• Integrates configurable dual-port SRAM for flexible memory applications.

Applications

• High-capacity single-chip ASIC replacement designs
• PCI-compliant interface logic implementation
• Digital signal processing control blocks

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'M' against official Microchip documentation to confirm it denotes military temperature range or specific qualification standards, as suffixes define environmental ratings. Ensure the ordering information matches the exact package type and speed grade required for your design constraints before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dense FPGA solution with mixed-voltage I/O support is required for ASIC prototyping or low-volume production. Compare the 6k gate count and 48.24 MHz speed against other MX family members to ensure adequate logic resources and timing margins for the target application complexity.

Part Context

This part belongs to the A40MX/42MX FPGA family, which serves as a bridge between complex programmable logic devices and standard FPGAs. The series is characterized by its non-volatile flash technology, allowing instant-on functionality without external configuration memory, distinguishing it from volatile SRAM-based FPGAs in the same ecosystem.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same package and speed grade should be sought within the A40MX04 series. Verify if lower speed grades (e.g., -2, -3) are acceptable for timing closure, or if higher density parts like the A40MX16 are needed for expanded logic requirements.
