A42MX09-PG132C Descripción general
An FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) is a type of programmable logic device that implements digital logic through configurable logic blocks and programmable interconnect, sitting within the broader hierarchy of semiconductors > programmable logic > FPGA. The MX family was designed specifically as a cost-effective, high-volume platform for integrating legacy PLDs and glue logic into a single, reliable 5.0 V device, eliminating multi-chip ASIC NRE costs.
Key features include the flexible MX routing structure, quadrant clock networks for low-skew clocking, C-module and S-module implementation options (with D-module and dual-port SRAM on larger family members), and JTAG boundary-scan support via the serial TDI-to-TDO chain. The 95 available I/O support mixed 3.3V/5V interfacing, simplifying integration into industrial systems built around 5V buses.
The ceramic CPGA package provides robust mechanical reliability and superior thermal performance compared to plastic packages, historically favored in military, aerospace, and industrial applications where board-level reliability matters.
Typical applications include legacy system lifecycle management, industrial control, military/aerospace upgrades of 5V designs, and high-volume replacements for masked ASICs.
Design consideration: the 42MX family is mature; verify current lifecycle status and plan for family-level design-in using compatible MX members (A42MX16, A42MX24, A42MX36) to preserve scalability. Pricing as of 2026-08-30 reflects single-unit distributor quotes around $750.83.

Aplicaciones típicas
A42MX09-PG132C es adecuado para 6 aplicacións: Legacy 5V System Lifecycle Management, Single-Chip ASIC Alternative, Military and Aerospace Upgrades, Industrial Control and Automation, Test and Measurement Equipment, Communications Legacy Line Cards.
Legacy 5V System Lifecycle Management
The A42MX09-PG132C's native 5.0V-tolerant MX architecture makes it ideal for extending the life of industrial and defense systems designed around 5V buses. Its 95 user I/O interface directly with 5V logic without level shifters, and the antifuse one-time-programmable fabric preserves configuration through power cycles without external boot memory. With 14K gates and 336 cells, it consolidates legacy PLDs, glue logic, and address decoders into a single chip, eliminating obsolete multi-component BOM lines.
Recomendado
Single-Chip ASIC Alternative
Microchip positions the MX family as a reliable single-chip ASIC alternative for high-volume production. Unlike masked ASICs, the A42MX09-PG132C requires no NRE and no minimum order quantity, while antifuse programming provides ASIC-like security and low power with no configuration load time. The 129 MHz/215 MHz performance covers most legacy control and data-path functions, and the 0.45 um process delivers proven 5V electrical margins for cost-sensitive volume deployments.
Recomendado
Military and Aerospace Upgrades
The 132-pin ceramic CPGA package provides hermetic packaging, superior thermal dissipation, and mechanical robustness valued in military and aerospace retrofit programs. Designs that were qualified around Actel MX devices decades ago can sustain production using A42MX09-PG132C without requalification of the programming technology. The JTAG boundary-scan chain (TDI to TDO) supports board-level test continuity, and the quadrant clock network maintains low clock skew across the 95 I/O in vibration-prone environments.
Recomendado
Industrial Control and Automation
In industrial controllers, the A42MX09-PG132C implements state machines, motor-control sequencing logic, and 5V sensor interfacing. The 3.3V/5V dual-supply operation lets designers bridge modern 3.3V microprocessor subsystems with field wiring that still runs 5V signaling. Its 95 I/O is sufficient for parallel address/data buses to legacy peripherals, and one-time programmability eliminates configuration-storage failure modes in electrically noisy factory environments.
Recomendado
Test and Measurement Equipment
Bench instruments and ATE fixtures use the A42MX09-PG132C for timing generation, bus emulation, and interface translation between 5V legacy DUTs and modern controllers. The 215 MHz internal performance supports fast state-machine operation, and the ceramic package's thermal stability keeps timing parameters consistent during long test sessions. Designers value the deterministic antifuse routing, which fixes propagation delays at programming time for reproducible test timing.
Recomendado
Communications Legacy Line Cards
Telecom and datacom line cards designed in the 1990s commonly specified Actel MX devices with 5V backplane signaling. The A42MX09-PG132C maintains production of these line cards, implementing framing logic, parity generation, and backplane interface glue. Its 95 I/O covers 8-bit and 16-bit parallel data paths with control signals, and the CPGA package is socket-friendly in some legacy card designs, simplifying field replacement without hot-air rework.

Notas de diseño
The 132-pin CPGA (PG132) is a ceramic pin grid array with 0.1-inch pin pitch. Legacy boards typically use socketed CPGA footprints; if soldering directly, inspect all 132 joints with X-ray or angle-view since PGA joints hide defects. Follow the Microsemi DS2316 datasheet pinout table exactly - the same A42MX09 die has different pin maps in different packages.
The device operates from 3.3V/5V supplies on a 0.45 um antifuse process. Decouple each VDD pin with 0.1 uF ceramic capacitors placed within 5 mm, plus bulk 10 uF per supply rail. The MX I/O structure is 5V tolerant but respect the datasheet absolute maximum ratings on VCCI to avoid latch-up on the I/O modules.
MX devices are one-time programmable (antifuse) - programming errors cannot be recovered in-system, so validate your design fully in the Libero/Designer simulation flow before committing to a programmed device. Also note the 42MX family is mature: confirm long-term supply agreements with your distributor, since distributor lead times are currently listed as to-be-confirmed.
The quadrant clock network provides low-skio global clocking; route all high-fanout clocks to the dedicated clock pins identified in the DS2316 pinout rather than general-purpose I/O. For 5V parallel buses at the 129 MHz class of operation, keep trace stubs short and consider series termination on 5V backplane signals.
Información de cumplimiento
Ceramic CPGA packages of this vintage may not be RoHS compliant due to lead-containing ceramic seal materials. Verify compliance certificates with Microchip before RoHS-restricted deployments.
