A42MX09-1PQG160M

Overview

The A42MX09-1PQG160M is a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) from the Microchip MX series, manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features 14,000 system gates and 336 logic elements within a 160-pin PQFP package. The device supports supply voltages of 3V to 3.6V and 4.75V to 5.25V, with an operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. It provides 101 I/Os and is classified as obsolete.

Feature Summary

• Configurable logic architecture based on the MX FPGA family
• Surface-mount 160-pin plastic quad flatpack enclosure
• Compliant with RoHS3 environmental standards

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring programmable logic
• Embedded interface adaptation in electronic equipment
• Legacy system maintenance and replacement

Procurement Notes

This component is officially listed as obsolete by the manufacturer. Availability is restricted to existing stock or third-party distributors. Verify part authenticity and condition carefully due to end-of-life status. Check for specific suffix variations that may indicate different speed grades or packaging options before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model for applications requiring 14,000 system gates in a 160-pin QFP form factor. Ensure voltage requirements match the 3.3V or 5V specifications. Consider pin compatibility with existing PCB layouts designed for the PQFP-160 footprint when integrating into new designs.

Part Context

The A42MX09 belongs to the Microchip MX series of FPGAs, which are known for non-volatile flash-based technology. This series offers reprogrammability without external configuration memory. The -1PQG160M designation specifies the speed grade, package type, and mass market variant within the broader A42MX09 product line.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other A42MX09 variants with compatible packages such as A42MX09-1PQG160. Cross-series migration to newer Microchip FPGA families requires schematic and code verification.
