A42MX16-3PQG100I Übersicht

The Microchip Technology (formerly Microsemi/Actel) A42MX16-3PQG100I is a members of the 42MX family of antifuse-based field-programmable gate arrays, providing 24K system gates, 608 logic modules, and 83 user I/Os in a 100-pin PQFP (BQFP) package with 0.65 mm lead pitch. The -3 speed grade supports system toggle rates up to approximately 142 MHz / 237 MHz internal paths, and the industrial temperature variant (suffix I) is rated for -40C to +85C operation.

An FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) is a reconfigurable logic device that integrates thousands of programmable logic blocks and interconnects into a single chip. Within the programmable logic hierarchy (logic module -> FPGA -> programmable logic device -> semiconductor), the MX family occupies the high-reliability, single-chip ASIC-alternative niche: its antifuse programming is one-time, non-volatile, and inherently secure against readback.

Key features include an efficient 5.0 V tolerant architecture that also supports 3.3V I/O operation, making it an ideal platform for consolidating legacy 5V PLD/CPLD designs into a single low-cost device. The antifuse fabric requires no configuration PROM, boots instantly at power-up, and offers very low static power consumption compared to SRAM FPGAs.

The A42MX16 uses a 0.45 um CMOS antifuse process with a segmented routing architecture combining fast local and longer segmented lines. Microsemi's Designer software supports synthesis, place-and-route, timing analysis, and back-annotation compatible with all major simulators, cross-probed with the Silicon Explorer II verification tool.

Typical applications include glue logic integration, legacy PLD consolidation, industrial control, aerospace/defense boards requiring instant-on non-volatile configuration, and high-volume embedded systems where a single-chip ASIC alternative is needed. The industrial-grade I variant suits factory automation and instrumentation environments.

Design consideration: plan I/O banking carefully when mixing 5V and 3.3V signals, and account for the one-time-programmable nature of antifuse devices in your prototyping flow - verify designs in simulation thoroughly before programming.

Typische Anwendungen

A42MX16-3PQG100I ist geeignet für 6 Anwendungs: Legacy PLD Consolidation, Industrial Automation Control, Aerospace and Defense Boards, Single-Chip ASIC Alternative, Test and Measurement Instrumentation, Networking and Interface Glue Logic.

🔧

Legacy PLD Consolidation

The A42MX16-3PQG100I's 5V-tolerant 3.3V/5V architecture makes it the standard choice for replacing multiple legacy PLDs, PALs, and GALs with a single device. Its 24K system gates and 83 user I/Os absorb several discrete programmable logic parts, cutting board area and BOM count. Because the antifuse fabric is instant-on and needs no configuration PROM, system power-up behavior matches the legacy discrete parts it replaces, simplifying qualification of existing designs.

🏭

Industrial Automation Control

With the industrial -40C to +85C temperature grade, the A42MX16-3PQG100I withstands factory floor temperature extremes where commercial-grade logic fails. The 142/237 MHz internal performance comfortably handles state machines, encoders, and I/O expansion logic, while 5V tolerance allows direct interfacing with legacy 24V-logic-buffered and 5V TTL sensor interfaces common in PLC backplanes. Non-volatile antifuse configuration means the controller restarts deterministically after power loss with no bootloader delay.

✈️

Aerospace and Defense Boards

Actel/Microsemi antifuse FPGAs are a mainstay of defense and aerospace designs due to configuration readback security, immunity to configuration upsets, and instant-on operation. The A42MX16-3PQG100I's 24K gates implement interface bridges, bus controllers, and mission logic, while the M-suffix sibling (A42MX16-1PQG100M) provides screened variants for military programs. Design security is inherent: the programmed antifuse network cannot be dumped, protecting intellectual property in deployed systems.

🖥️

Single-Chip ASIC Alternative

The MX family is positioned by Microchip as a reliable, single-chip ASIC alternative for high-volume products. Compared to an ASIC's NRE and 20+ week lead times, the A42MX16-3PQG100I goes from HDL to programmed device in days using Microsemi Designer software, at unit costs practical in volume. The 0.45 um antifuse process delivers ASIC-like security and determinism with no configuration device, making it suitable for medium-complexity products needing 24K gates without custom silicon economics.

🔧

Test and Measurement Instrumentation

Instrumentation backplanes frequently mix 5V TTL and 3.3V logic domains; the A42MX16-3PQG100I's 5V-tolerant I/O eliminates level-shifting overhead. The -3 speed grade at 142/237 MHz supports counter/timer, trigger, and sequencer logic, while deterministic instant-on antifuse configuration ensures instruments power up into a known state immediately. The 83 I/Os handle parallel data acquisition interfaces that would exhaust smaller CPLDs.

🌐

Networking and Interface Glue Logic

The A42MX16-3PQG100I bridges legacy bus interfaces (ISA-like parallel buses, 5V backplanes) to modern 3.3V microcontrollers and processors. Its dual-voltage I/O tolerates direct 5V connections, and the -3 speed grade sustains the timing of 25-50 MHz bus protocols with margin. Because it is one-time programmable, interface logic is fixed at manufacturing, avoiding the configuration corruption risks that flash-based CPLDs face in electrically noisy networking environments.

What is the A42MX16-3PQG100I?
The A42MX16-3PQG100I is a Microchip Technology (formerly Microsemi/Actel) MX family antifuse FPGA with 24K system gates, 608 logic cells, and 83 user I/Os in a 100-pin PQFP package. The -3 speed grade and industrial suffix (I) mean it operates from -40C to +85C. According to the Microsemi 40MX/42MX datasheet (DS2316), it uses a 0.45 um antifuse process with 5V-tolerant architecture.
What is the price of A42MX16-3PQG100I?
Pricing for the A42MX16-3PQG100 series is approximately $277.91 per unit in single-piece quantity, as of 2026-08-30 per distributor listings (Heisener reference pricing for A42MX16-3PQG100). Bulk discounts at 100 and 1000 pieces typically reduce the unit price by roughly 10-20%. Contact distributors such as DigiKey, Mouser, or Octopart-listed brokers for current quotes.
Where to buy A42MX16-3PQG100I online?
The A42MX16-3PQG100I is available from DigiKey (part 2859618, in stock and ships today as of the latest check), Mouser, and broker channels including Hotenda, Avaq, and PCB Electronics. Octopart lists 6 distributors carrying this MPN. Always verify stock and lead time at purchase, as MX-family antifuse FPGAs are primarily used in legacy and defense programs with fluctuating availability.
Is A42MX16-3PQG100I still in production and active?
Yes, the A42MX16-3PQG100I is listed as active by Microchip Technology and DigiKey shows in-stock, ships-today status as of 2026-08-30. The MX family remains in production because it is widely used in legacy PLD consolidation and long-lifecycle industrial and defense applications. Check Microchip's product page or distributor status pages for lifecycle updates.
Where to download the A42MX16-3PQG100I datasheet PDF?
The A42MX16-3PQG100I datasheet is the Microsemi document '40MX and 42MX FPGA Families Datasheet' (DS2316), downloadable from Microchip's website at ww1.microchip.com. This document covers pinouts, electrical characteristics, timing, and programming details for the entire 40MX/42MX family, including the A42MX16 variants in all packages.
What is the difference between A42MX16-3PQG100I and A42MX16-3PQG100?
The only difference is the temperature range: the 'I' suffix denotes the industrial grade (-40C to +85C), while A42MX16-3PQG100 without the suffix is the commercial grade (0C to +70C). Both are pin-compatible in the same 100-pin PQFP package with identical 24K-gate logic capacity and -3 speed grade. Choose the I variant for extended-temperature environments.
Is A42MX16-3PQG100I the same as A42MX16-1PQG100?
No, they differ only in speed grade: -3 is the fastest/faster timing grade while -1 is slower. Both are 24K-gate MX FPGAs in the same 100-pin PQFP package with identical pinout and industrial temperature range. A design using the -1 speed grade will work with a -3 device, but not necessarily the reverse, so check timing closure before substituting.
Can A42MX16-1PQG100 replace A42MX16-3PQG100I?
As a drop-in on the same PCB, yes physically - both share the identical 100-pin PQFP footprint and pinout. Electrically, A42MX16-1PQG100 is a slower speed grade, so designs operating near maximum frequency margins with the -3 grade may fail timing. For low-speed glue logic applications it is a direct replacement; verify timing analysis before production use.
What is the best Microchip equivalent for A42MX16-3PQG100I in the same package?
The closest same-package equivalents are A42MX16-3PQG100 (commercial temp), A42MX16-1PQG100 (slower speed grade), and A42MX09-2PQG100I (same PQ100 footprint but 9K gates, for smaller designs). For designs exceeding 24K gates, A42MX24 variants in PQ208 offer an upgrade path but require a different package. No cross-brand drop-in equivalents exist for Actel antifuse FPGAs.
Where can I find the A42MX16-3PQG100I pinout?
The complete 100-pin PQFP pinout is in the Microsemi/Microchip 40MX and 42MX FPGA Families datasheet (DS2316), in the package pin assignment tables. The device provides 83 user I/Os plus dedicated power, ground, and programming pins. Datasheet archive sites also host the PDF, but always use the official Microchip document for design work.
What are the key specifications of A42MX16-3PQG100I engineers should know?
Key specifications: 24K system gates, 608 logic cells, 83 user I/Os, 5V tolerant architecture with 3.3V/5V operation, -3 speed grade supporting 142/237 MHz internal performance, 0.45 um antifuse OTP technology, industrial -40C to +85C rating, and 100-pin PQFP with 0.65 mm pitch. Per Microsemi datasheet DS2316, it requires no external configuration device and powers up instantly.
Why choose A42MX16 antifuse FPGA over an SRAM FPGA?
The A42MX16's antifuse technology is one-time programmable, non-volatile, and cannot be read back, making it ideal for secure, instant-on applications without a configuration flash device. Compared to SRAM FPGAs from Xilinx or Altera, it offers lower static power and higher design security, at the cost of reprogrammability and lower logic density. It is best for legacy 5V system integration and defense programs.
What is the lead time for A42MX16-3PQG100I?
Lead time varies by channel: DigiKey and Mouser show in-stock same-day shipping for standard quantities as of 2026-08-30, while broker listings (Heisener, Avaq) may quote 'to be confirmed' lead times of 2-6 weeks for volume orders. For production quantities above distributor stock, plan for Microchip factory lead times which for MX-family parts can extend beyond 12 weeks.

Wichtigste Unterscheidungsmerkmale

  • Industrial temperature grade at fastest speed grade (vs. A42MX16-3PQG100)
  • Fastest -3 speed grade in the PQ100 family (vs. A42MX16-1PQG100)
  • 5V-tolerant I/O rare in modern FPGAs (vs. A42MX09-2PQG100I)

Designhinweise

The A42MX16 requires both a core supply and I/O supply consistent with the 3.3V/5V dual-voltage architecture. Decouple each VCC pin with at least 0.1uF ceramic capacitors placed within 5 mm of the pin, plus bulk 10uF capacitance per supply domain. Antifuse FPGAs have near-zero configuration current at power-up, but dynamic current scales with toggle rate - use Microsemi Designer power estimation for your actual netlist before sizing regulators.

The 100-pin PQFP has 0.65 mm lead pitch; use JEDEC-compliant PQFP-100 land patterns with slight lead extension to improve solder joint reliability. Route the 83 user I/Os with controlled impedance where bus timing matters, and keep the 5V and 3.3V I/O banks clearly partitioned in layout to simplify mixed-voltage decoupling. PQFP leads are prone to coplanarity issues - inspect with optical alignment tools before reflow.

Antifuse FPGAs are one-time programmable: you cannot erase and reprogram the device. Fully verify the design in simulation and timing analysis using Microsemi Designer before committing hardware. Also remember that a design meeting timing on a -3 grade may not close timing on -1 or -2 speed-grade substitutes, so do not substitute speed grades without re-running timing verification. Honor the -40C to +85C industrial rating - commercial-grade siblings are not qualified below 0C.
