40MX and 42MX Automotive FPGA Families
40MX and 42MX Automotive FPGA Families
General Description
Actels' automotive-grade MX families provide a high-
performance, single-chip solution for shortening the
system design and development cycle, offering a cost-
effective alternative to ASICs for in-cabin telematics and
automobile interconnect applications. The 40MX and
42MX devices are excellent choices for integrating logic
that is currently implemented in multiple PALs, CPLDs,
and FPGAs.
The MX device architecture is based on Actel’s patented
antifuse technology implemented in a 0.45µm triple-
metal CMOS process. With capacities ranging from 3,000
to 54,000 system gates, the MX devices are live on
power-up and have one-fifth the standby power
consumption of comparable FPGAs. Actel’s MX FPGAs
provide up to 202 user I/Os and are available in a wide
variety of packages and speed grades.
The automotive-grade 42MX24 and 42MX36 include
system-level features such as IEEE Standard 1149.1 (JTAG)
Boundary Scan Testing and fast wide-decode modules. In
addition, the A42MX36 device offers dual-port SRAM for
implementing fast FIFOs, LIFOs, and temporary data
storage. The storage elements can efficiently address
applications requiring wide datapath manipulation.
flops can be constructed from logic modules whenever
required in the application.
The 42MX devices contain three types of logic modules:
combinatorial (C-modules), sequential (S-modules) and
decode
(D-modules).
Figure 1-2
illustrates
the
combinatorial logic module. The S-module, shown in
Figure 1-3 on page 1-2,
implements the same
combinatorial logic function as the C-module while
adding a sequential element. The sequential element can
be configured as either a D-flip-flop or a transparent
latch. The S-module register can be bypassed so that it
implements purely combinatorial logic.
A42MX24 and A42MX36 devices contain D-modules,
which are arranged around the periphery of the device.
D-modules contain wide-decode circuitry, providing a
fast, wide-input AND function similar to that found in
CPLD architectures (Figure
1-4 on page 1-2).
The D-
module allows A42MX24 and A42MX36 devices to
perform wide-decode functions at speeds comparable to
CPLDs and PALs. The output of the D-module has a
programmable inverter for active HIGH or LOW
assertion. The D-module output is hardwired to an
output pin, and can also be fed back into the array to be
incorporated into other logic.
MX Architectural Overview
The MX devices are composed of fine-grained building
blocks that enable fast, efficient logic designs. All devices
within these families are composed of logic modules, I/O
modules, routing resources and clock networks, which
are the building blocks for fast logic designs. In addition,
the A42MX36 device contains embedded dual-port
SRAM modules, which are optimized for high-speed
datapath functions such as FIFOs, LIFOs and scratchpad
memory. A42MX24 and A42MX36 also contain wide-
decode modules.

Logic Modules
The 40MX logic module is an eight-input, one-output
logic circuit designed to implement a wide range of logic
functions with efficient use of interconnect routing
resources (Figure
1-1).
The logic module can implement the four basic logic
functions (NAND, AND, OR and NOR) in gates of two,
three, or four inputs. The logic module can also
implement a variety of D-latches, exclusivity functions,
AND-ORs and OR-ANDs. No dedicated hardwired latches
or flip-flops are required in the array; latches and flip-
