A42MX24-1PQG208I Übersicht
An FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) is a semiconductor device containing a fabric of configurable logic blocks and programmable interconnects that the designer configures after manufacturing. Within the programmable logic hierarchy, the MX family sits as a low-cost, high-volume FPGA -> programmable logic device -> ASIC alternative, originally from Actel/Microsemi and now sold under Microchip Technology.
Key features include a flexible 5.0V/3.3V architecture with MultiPlex I/Os supporting mixed-voltage systems, programmable PCI support fully compliant with the PCI Local Bus Specification (version 2.1), low-power mode, and D-modules with wide-decode circuitry arranged around the device periphery providing fast, wide-input AND functions similar to CPLD architectures. S-modules and C-modules implement up to 8-input logic functions for efficient combinational and sequential design.
The 42MX architecture uses antifuse-based one-time-programmable technology, giving inherent resistance to configuration upset and making the device a reliable single-chip ASIC alternative for consolidating legacy PLDs into a single low-cost device. This makes the MX family popular in high-volume industrial, defense, and medical platforms where configuration volatility is undesirable.
Typical applications include industrial automation control, legacy PLD consolidation, glue logic integration, motor control interfaces, and mixed 5V/3.3V system bridging. The 176 I/O count and PCI compliance also support embedded bus interface designs.
Design consideration: because MX devices are one-time programmable, verify the bitstream thoroughly in simulation before programming; the 5V-tolerant MultiPlex I/O simplifies interfacing with legacy 5V logic but observe the 3.3V/5V supply sequencing guidance in datasheet DS2316.

Typische Anwendungen
A42MX24-1PQG208I ist geeignet für 6 Anwendungs: Legacy PLD Consolidation, PCI Bus Interface Designs, Industrial Automation Control, Mixed 5V/3.3V System Bridging, Medical Equipment Logic, Defense and High-Reliability Logic.
Legacy PLD Consolidation
The A42MX24-1PQG208I is an ideal platform for integrating legacy PLDs, PALs, and GALs into a single low-cost device. Microchip positions MX as a high-volume, single-chip ASIC alternative; the 36K gates and 912 cells absorb multiple 22V10-class devices, while 5.0V-tolerant MultiPlex I/O connects directly to legacy TTL/5V buses without level shifters. Because the antifuse fabric is one-time programmable, replacement designs behave identically at every power-up, avoiding configuration-file management in fielded industrial equipment.
Empfohlen
PCI Bus Interface Designs
The A42MX24 is fully compliant with the PCI Local Bus Specification version 2.1, so it can implement PCI target or basic master interfaces at both 5.0V and 3.3V signaling levels. The -1 speed grade supports the required PCI timing, and MultiPlex I/Os deliver programmable PCI drive characteristics. Placing the PCI state machine plus glue logic inside one 208-PQFP device removes discrete bus-interface components, reducing BOM cost and board area in industrial and embedded control backplane designs.
Empfohlen
Industrial Automation Control
Industrial controllers benefit from the industrial temperature rating (-40C to +85C), 5V/3.3V mixed-voltage I/O, and low-power mode of the A42MX24-1PQG208I. D-modules arranged around the die periphery provide CPLD-style wide-input AND decode functions that accelerate address decoding, machine-state decoding, and safety-interlock logic. The antifuse fabric is immune to configuration upset from noise or brown-out events common on factory floors, and the 176 I/Os interface sensors, actuators, and legacy PLC backplanes directly.
Empfohlen
Mixed 5V/3.3V System Bridging
Many retrofit systems combine a modern 3.3V processor with legacy 5V peripherals. The A42MX24 MultiPlex I/O architecture supports both 5.0V and 3.3V operation on the same die, letting one device bridge voltage domains while performing protocol translation or buffering. Designers partition banks between 5V-tolerant inputs and 3.3V outputs, eliminating bus-switch ICs. The 208-PQFP gull-wing package simplifies inspection and rework compared with BGA alternatives in repairable industrial boards.
Empfohlen
Medical Equipment Logic
Medical devices with long service lives value the MX family's stable, non-volatile antifuse configuration and Microchip's long-standing support of the MX platform for continuity of supply. The A42MX24-1PQG208I implements interface glue logic, data-acquisition sequencing, and sensor-timing control in diagnostic equipment, while the deterministic one-time-programmable fabric eases design verification and regulatory documentation because the configured netlist cannot change in the field. The 36K-gate capacity covers typical control and interface blocks with margin.
Empfohlen
Defense and High-Reliability Logic
Antifuse FPGAs are historically favored in defense and avionic platforms because the configuration is inherently non-volatile and resistant to configuration upset, with no external configuration PROM to attack or fail. The A42MX24-1PQG208I's industrial temperature range and one-time programming support high-reliability flow requirements, and the device consolidates discrete decode and interface logic to reduce part count. Designers compile with Microsemi Libero/Designer and verify timing before programming, since the antifuse cannot be reconfigured.

Wichtigste Unterscheidungsmerkmale
- Fastest -1 speed grade in the A42MX24 PQG208 family (vs. A42MX24-PQG208I)
- Balanced 36K-gate density (vs. A42MX16-1PQG208I)
- Lower cost than larger A42MX36 variants (vs. A42MX36-1PQG208)
Designhinweise
The A42MX24 operates from 5.0V and/or 3.3V supplies depending on I/O bank configuration. Follow the DS2316 datasheet power-up sequencing and decoupling guidance: place 0.1uF ceramic decoupling capacitors at each VDD pin pair and bulk capacitance near the board entry. The programming supply (VPP) is only required during antifuse programming and must be isolated per the datasheet notes in end-use systems.
MX antifuse devices are one-time programmable: a design that simulates clean but has marginal timing cannot be reconfigured. Run static timing analysis in Microsemi Libero/Designer with the -1 speed grade library before committing silicon, and verify the 5V/3.3V I/O standard assignment per bank, since MultiPlex I/O configuration is fixed at programming time.
The 208-PQFP gull-wing package requires attention to lead coplanarity and solder paste stencil design; use the DS2316 package drawing for land pattern dimensions. Tie unused I/O to defined logic levels or configure as outputs to avoid floating inputs, and keep the global clock (HCLK) trace short with a solid ground return for lowest jitter.
