A40MX04-3PQ100I

Overview

The A40MX04-3PQ100I is a field-programmable gate array from the Microchip MX series, housed in a PQFP-100 package. It features 547 logic elements and approximately 6,000 system gates with 69 I/O pins. The device operates on dual voltage supplies of 3.3 V (range 3.0–3.6 V) and 5.0 V (range 4.5–5.5 V). It supports an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and includes moisture sensitivity level 3 classification.

Feature Summary

• Configurable logic blocks for custom digital circuit implementation
• Dual-voltage operation supporting both 3.3V and 5V logic levels
• Surface-mount packaging for automated assembly integration

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust programmable logic
• Embedded interface bridging between different voltage domains
• Custom digital signal processing hardware acceleration

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix against official Microchip documentation, as standard naming conventions typically use 'PQG' or 'PQFP' for this package type rather than 'PQ'. Confirm current availability status directly with authorized distributors, as legacy FPGA inventory fluctuates frequently. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives and check for any recent production change notices affecting lead times or manufacturing sites before finalizing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a moderate density FPGA with mixed 3.3V and 5V I/O capability is required. The PQFP-100 package offers a balance of pin count and board space for prototyping or low-volume production. Compare against the A40MX04-3PQG100I variant if specific manufacturer package code verification is needed for PCB footprint accuracy.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Actel MX family, now under Microchip Technology, known for SRAM-based FPGAs. The A40MX04 designation indicates a specific gate count tier within the MX series. These devices are widely used in applications needing non-volatile configuration flexibility without the complexity of flash-based architectures.
