A40MX04-VQG80

Overview

The A40MX04-VQG80 is a field-programmable gate array from the Microchip MX series, featuring approximately 6,000 system gates and 547 logic elements. It provides 69 I/O pins within an 80-pin VQFP package. The device operates on dual voltage supplies: 3.3V (2.97V to 3.6V) and 5V (4.75V to 5.25V). It supports surface mount installation with an operating temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. The component utilizes SRAM-based technology for configuration.

Feature Summary

• SRAM-based non-volatile configuration architecture
• High-density programmable logic fabric
• Dual voltage supply capability

Applications

• Industrial control systems
• Consumer electronics prototyping
• Automotive infotainment interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official datasheets to confirm package type and temperature grade. Confirm RoHS compliance status through manufacturer documentation prior to integration. Ensure ESD handling protocols are followed during assembly due to moisture sensitivity classification.

Selection Notes

Select this model when 69 I/Os and 6K system gates are required in a compact VQFP-80 footprint. Compare against PLCC or PQFP variants if pin count or thermal performance differs. Verify that the 0°C to +70°C commercial temperature range meets application requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Actel MX family, acquired by Microchip Technology. The MX series represents a generation of high-performance, low-power SRAM FPGAs designed for cost-sensitive applications requiring moderate logic density and flexible I/O configurations.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other A40MX04 variants such as A40MX04-PLG68I or A40MX04-3PQG100I for pin-compatible alternatives. Verify functional equivalence regarding logic capacity and I/O counts before substitution.
