The 40MX and 42MX families from Microsemi provide an affordable design option at 5V. The single-chip MX devices offer great performance while reducing the time needed for system design and development. MX devices are capable of combining and consolidating logic created by various PALs, CPLDs, and FPGAs. Examples of applications include peripheral bus interfaces, DSP, co-processor functions, high-speed controllers and address decoding, and high-speed address decoding.
Based on Microsemi's unique anti-fuse technology, which is implemented in a 0.45-m triple-metal CMOS process, the MX device architecture. The MX devices offer performance up to 250 MHz, are life on power-up, and have one-fifth of the standby power consumption of comparable FPGAs. Their capacities range from 3,000 to 54,000 system gates. MX FPGAs come in a range of packaging and speed ratings, and they offer up to 202 user I/Os.
