A42MX09-PQ100

Overview

The A42MX09-PQ100 is a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) from the MX family, manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features 336 Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs), equivalent to 14,000 system gates, and provides 83 user-programmable I/O pins. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4.75 V to 5.25 V and supports mixed-voltage operation for core and I/Os at 3.3 V or 5.0 V. It is housed in a PQFP-100 plastic package with 100 terminals. The component supports commercial temperature ranges from 0°C to +70°C.

Feature Summary

• Single-chip ASIC alternative solution integrating logic previously requiring multiple PALs, CPLDs, or FPGAs.
• Supports mixed-voltage operation allowing 5.0V or 3.3V configurations for core and I/Os with PCI-compliant interfaces.
• Enables up to 100% resource utilization and 100% pin locking for deterministic timing control.

Applications

• High-speed controllers and address decoding
• Peripheral bus interfaces
• DSP and co-processor functions

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official Microchip documentation to confirm exact speed grade and temperature rating. Confirm RoHS compliance status as historical data varies by production batch. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required package type and electrical specifications before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model for designs requiring approximately 14,000 system gates in a 100-pin QFP package. Consider the mixed-voltage capability if interfacing with both 3.3V and 5V logic domains. Verify that the 83 available I/O pins meet the interface requirements of the target application.

Part Context

This component belongs to the A42MX09 series within the broader MX FPGA family. It serves as a high-capacity programmable logic device designed to replace complex discrete logic or lower-density PLDs. The series offers a cost-effective solution for consolidating system logic onto a single chip.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other variants within the A42MX09 series such as A42MX09-FPQG100I or A42MX09-PQG100, provided pinout and performance specifications align with the design requirements.
