6000-gate MX FPGA in a 44-PLCC — what the bench sees
The Microchip A40MX04-PLG44 is an MX-series FPGA with 6000 gates and 34 user I/Os in a 44-pin PLCC package.
34 I/Os and 3 V supply — routing and rail decisions
With 34 I/Os, this part fits small glue-logic or state-machine roles where you need a handful of registered inputs and outputs. The 3 V supply means it sits on a 3.3 V rail without a separate regulator, but level-shifting is needed if the rest of the board runs 5 V logic.
