A40MX04-FPL84

Overview

The A40MX04-FPL84 is a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from the Microchip MX family, designed as a single-chip ASIC alternative. It features 6,000 system gates and 547 Logic Elements (LEs). The device operates with supply voltages of 3V to 3.6V or 4.75V to 5.25V. It includes up to 2.5 kbits of configurable dual-port SRAM and supports IEEE Standard 1149.1 JTAG boundary scan testing. The component is housed in an 84-PLCC package and functions within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides deterministic, user-controllable timing suitable for precise design methodologies.
• Supports 100% resource utilization and 100% pin fixing for direct ASIC replacement.
• Includes unique in-system diagnostic capability via Silicon Explorer II technology.

Applications

• Automotive applications requiring single-chip ASIC alternatives
• Industrial control systems needing deterministic timing
• Embedded logic replacement for custom ASIC designs

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official Microchip documentation to confirm package type and temperature grade. Ensure compliance with RoHS3 standards and check for recent Product Change Notifications regarding assembly sites or labeling updates before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when 6,000 system gates are required in an 84-pin PLCC package. Confirm that the 0°C to 70°C operating range meets environmental requirements. Verify voltage compatibility with either 3.3V or 5V domains based on the specific variant's electrical specifications.

Part Context

This part belongs to the A40MX04 series within the broader MX FPGA family. It shares architectural similarities with other variants like the A40MX04-1PLG68 but differs in package configuration and I/O count. The series is characterized by low power consumption and CMOS technology.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other A40MX04 variants with compatible packages, such as the A40MX04-3PLG84I for industrial temperature ranges. Verify pinout compatibility and voltage levels before substitution.
