A42MX24-2TQG176I

Overview

The A42MX24-2TQG176I is a field-programmable gate array from the Microchip MX family, offering 36,000 system gates and 912 logic elements. It features 150 user-programmable I/O pins housed in a 176-pin TQFP package. The device supports mixed-voltage operation with core voltages of 3.3 V or 5 V and I/O levels compatible with 3.3 V or 5 V standards. Operating specifications include a minimum supply voltage of 4.75 V and a maximum of 5.25 V, with an industrial temperature range spanning from 0°C to +70°C.

Feature Summary

• Supports mixed-voltage operation for both core and I/O domains
• Provides deterministic, user-controllable timing characteristics
• Enables up to 100% resource utilization and pin locking

Applications

• Automotive electronic control units
• Industrial automation controllers
• Communication interface adapters

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' confirms the industrial temperature grade (0°C to +70°C) against the official datasheet. Confirm the package type is TQFP-176. Check for End-of-Life notifications as this series may be discontinued by the manufacturer.

Selection Notes

Select this component when 36K system gates and 150 I/Os are required in a TQFP-176 form factor. Ensure the design utilizes 3.3V or 5V core supplies within the specified 4.75V to 5.25V operating range. Verify that the industrial temperature range meets the environmental requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the A42MX24 series within the broader MX FPGA portfolio. It shares architectural similarities with other devices in the family, such as the A42MX24-3TQG176, differing primarily in speed grade and temperature rating. The series is designed as a single-chip ASIC alternative.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Cross-referencing with the A42MX24-3TQG176 requires verification of speed bin compatibility and temperature range alignment.
