40MX and 42MX FPGA Families
General Description
Actel's 40MX and 42MX families offer a cost-effective
design solution at 5V. The MX devices are single-chip
solutions and provide high performance while
shortening the system design and development cycle.
MX devices can integrate and consolidate logic
implemented in multiple PALs, CPLDs, and FPGAs.
Example applications include high-speed controllers and
address decoding, peripheral bus interfaces, DSP, and co-
processor functions.
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 provide
performance up to 250 MHz, 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.
Actel’s A42MX24 and A42MX36 devices also feature
MultiPlex I/Os, which support mixed-voltage systems,
enable programmable PCI, deliver high-performance
operation at both 5.0V and 3.3V, and provide a low-
power mode. The devices are fully compliant with the
PCI Local Bus Specification (version 2.1). They deliver
200 MHz on-chip operation and 6.1 ns clock-to-output
performance.
The 42MX24 and 42MX36 devices 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 and
can perform transformation functions such as those
required for telecommunications, networking, and DSP.
All MX devices are fully tested over automotive and
military temperature ranges. In addition, the largest
member of the family, the A42MX36, is available in both
CQ208 and CQ256 ceramic packages screened to MIL-
STD-883 levels. For easy prototyping and conversion from
plastic to ceramic, the CQ208 and PQ208 devices are pin-
compatible.
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 hard-wired latches
or flip-flops are required in the array; latches and flip-
flops can be constructed from logic modules whenever
required in the application.
Figure 1-1 40MX Logic Module
40MX and 42MX FPGA Families
1-2 v6.1
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, 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.

40MX and 42MX FPGA Families
v6.1 1-3
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). 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.
Dual-Port SRAM Modules
The A42MX36 device contains dual-port SRAM modules
that have been optimized for synchronous or
asynchronous applications. The SRAM modules are
arranged in 256-bit blocks that can be configured as 32x8
or 64x4. SRAM modules can be cascaded together to
form memory spaces of user-definable width and depth.
A block diagram of the A42MX36 dual-port SRAM block
is shown in Figure 1-5.
The A42MX36 SRAM modules are true dual-port
structures containing independent read and write ports.
Each SRAM module contains six bits of read and write
addressing (RDAD[5:0] and WRAD[5:0], respectively) for
64x4-bit blocks. When configured in byte mode, the
highest order address bits (RDAD5 and WRAD5) are not
used. The read and write ports of the SRAM block
contain independent clocks (RCLK and WCLK) with
programmable polarities offering active HIGH or LOW
implementation. The SRAM block contains eight data
inputs (WD[7:0]), and eight outputs (RD[7:0]), which are
connected to segmented vertical routing tracks.
The A42MX36 dual-port SRAM blocks provide an optimal
solution for high-speed buffered applications requiring
FIFO and LIFO queues. The ACTgen Macro Builder within
Actel's Designer software provides capability to quickly
design memory functions with the SRAM blocks. Unused
SRAM blocks can be used to implement registers for
other user logic within the design.

40MX and 42MX FPGA Families
1-4 v6.1
Routing Structure
The MX architecture uses vertical and horizontal routing
tracks to interconnect the various logic and I/O modules.
These routing tracks are metal interconnects that may be
continuous or split into segments. Varying segment
lengths allow the interconnect of over 90% of design
tracks to occur with only two antifuse connections.
Segments can be joined together at the ends using
antifuses to increase their lengths up to the full length of
the track. All interconnects can be accomplished with a
maximum of four antifuses.
Horizontal Routing
Horizontal routing tracks span the whole row length or
are divided into multiple segments and are located in
between the rows of modules. Any segment that spans
more than one-third of the row length is considered a
long horizontal segment. A typical channel is shown in
Figure 1-6. Within horizontal routing, dedicated routing
tracks are used for global clock networks and for power
and ground tie-off tracks. Non-dedicated tracks are used
for signal nets.
Vertical Routing
Another set of routing tracks run vertically through the
module. There are three types of vertical tracks: input,
output, and long. Long tracks span the column length of
the module, and can be divided into multiple segments.
Each segment in an input track is dedicated to the input
of a particular module; each segment in an output track
is dedicated to the output of a particular module. Long
segments are uncommitted and can be assigned during
routing. Each output segment spans four channels (two
above and two below), except near the top and bottom
of the array, where edge effects occur. Long vertical
tracks contain either one or two segments. An example
of vertical routing tracks and segments is shown in
Figure 1-6.
Antifuse Structures
An antifuse is a "normally open" structure. The use of
antifuses to implement a programmable logic device
results in highly testable structures as well as efficient
programming algorithms. There are no pre-existing
connections; temporary connections can be made using
pass transistors. These temporary connections can isolate
individual antifuses to be programmed and individual
circuit structures to be tested, which can be done before
and after programming. For instance, all metal tracks can
be tested for continuity and shorts between adjacent
tracks, and the functionality of all logic modules can be
verified.
Clock Networks
The 40MX devices have one global clock distribution
network (CLK). A signal can be put on the CLK network
by being routed through the CLKBUF buffer.
In 42MX devices, there are two low-skew, high-fanout
clock distribution networks, referred to as CLKA and
CLKB. Each network has a clock module (CLKMOD) that
can select the source of the clock signal from any of the
following (Figure 1-7 on page 1-5):
Externally from the CLKA pad, using CLKBUF
buffer
Externally from the CLKB pad, using CLKBUF
buffer
Internally from the CLKINTA input, using CLKINT
buffer
Internally from the CLKINTB input, using CLKINT
buffer
The clock modules are located in the top row of I/O
modules. Clock drivers and a dedicated horizontal clock
track are located in each horizontal routing channel.
Clock input pads in both 40MX and 42MX devices can
also be used as normal I/Os, bypassing the clock
networks.
The A42MX36 device has four additional register control
resources, called quadrant clock networks (Figure 1-8 on
page 1-5). Each quadrant clock provides a local, high-
fanout resource to the contiguous logic modules within
its quadrant of the device. Quadrant clock signals can
originate from specific I/O pins or from the internal array
and can be used as a secondary register clock, register
clear, or output enable.

MultiPlex I/O Modules
42MX devices feature Multiplex I/Os and support 5.0V,
3.3V, and mixed 3.3V/5.0V operations.
The MultiPlex I/O modules provide the interface between
the device pins and the logic array. Figure 1-9 is a block
diagram of the 42MX I/O module. A variety of user
functions, determined by a library macro selection, can
be implemented in the module. (Refer to the Antifuse
Macro Library Guide for more information.) All 42MX I/O
modules contain tristate buffers, with input and output
latches that can be configured for input, output, or
bidirectional operation.
All 42MX devices contain flexible I/O structures, where
each output pin has a dedicated output-enable control
(Figure 1-9). The I/O module can be used to latch input or
output data, or both, providing fast set-up time. In
addition, the Actel Designer software tools can build a D-
type flip-flop using a C-module combined with an I/O
module to register input and output signals. Refer to the
Antifuse Macro Library Guide for more details.
A42MX24 and A42MX36 devices also offer selectable PCI
output drives, enabling 100% compliance with version
2.1 of the PCI specification. For low-power systems, all
inputs and outputs are turned off to reduce current
consumption to below 500μA.
To achieve 5.0V or 3.3V PCI-compliant output drives on
A42MX24 and A42MX36 devices, a chip-wide PCI fuse is
programmed via the Device Selection Wizard in the
Designer software (Figure 1-10). When the PCI fuse is not
programmed, the output drive is standard.
Actel's Designer software development tools provide a
design library of I/O macro functions that can implement
all I/O configurations supported by the MX FPGAs.
Other Architectural Features
Performance
MX devices can operate with internal clock frequencies
of 250 MHz, enabling fast execution of complex logic
functions. MX devices are live on power-up and do not
require auxiliary configuration devices and thus are an
optimal platform to integrate the functionality
contained in multiple programmable logic devices. In
addition, designs that previously would have required a
gate array to meet performance can be integrated into
an MX device with improvements in cost and time-to-
market. Using timing-driven place-and-route (TDPR)
tools, designers can achieve highly deterministic device
performance.
User Security
The Actel FuseLock provides robust security against
design theft. Special security fuses are hidden in the
fabric of the device and prevent unauthorized users from
accessing the programming and/or probe interfaces. It is
virtually impossible to identify or bypass these fuses
without damaging the device, making Actel antifuse
FPGAs immune to both invasive and noninvasive attacks.
Special security fuses in 40MX devices include the Probe
Fuse and Program Fuse. The former disables the probing
circuitry while the latter prohibits further programming
of all fuses, including the Probe Fuse. In 42MX devices,
there is the Security Fuse which, when programmed,
both disables the probing circuitry and prohibits further
programming of the device.
Look for this symbol to ensure your valuable IP is secure.
For more information, refer to Actel's Implementation of
Security in Actel Antifuse FPGAs application note.

Programming
Device programming is supported through the Silicon
Sculptor series of programmers. Silicon Sculptor II is a
compact, robust, single-site and multi-site device
programmer for the PC. With standalone software,
Silicon Sculptor II is designed to allow concurrent
programming of multiple units from the same PC.
Silicon Sculptor II programs devices independently to
achieve the fastest programming times possible. After
being programmed, each fuse is verified to insure that it
has been programmed correctly. Furthermore, at the end
of programming, there are integrity tests that are run to
ensure no extra fuses have been programmed. Not only
does it test fuses (both programmed and
nonprogrammed), Silicon Sculptor II also allows self-test
to verify its own hardware extensively.
The procedure for programming an MX device using
Silicon Sculptor II is as follows:
1. Load the .AFM file
2. Select the device to be programmed
3. Begin programming
When the design is ready to go to production, Actel
offers device volume-programming services either
through distribution partners or via In-House
Programming from the factory.
For more details on programming MX devices, please
refer to the Programming Antifuse Devices and the
Silicon Sculptor II user's guides.
Power Supply
MX devices are designed to operate in both 5.0V and
3.3V environments. In particular, 42MX devices can
operate in mixed 5.0V/3.3V systems. Table 1 describes the
voltage support of MX devices.
Power-Up/Down in Mixed-Voltage Mode
When powering up 42MX in mixed voltage mode
(VCCA =5.0V and V
CCI = 3.3V), VCCA must be greater than
or equal to VCCI throughout the power-up sequence. If
VCCI exceeds VCCA during power up, either the I/Os' input
protection junction on the I/Os will be forward-biased or
the I/Os will be at logical HIGH, and ICC rises to high
levels. For power-down, any sequence with VCCA and
VCCI can be implemented.
Low Power Mode
42MX devices have been designed with a Low Power
Mode. This feature, activated with setting the special LP
pin to HIGH for a period longer than 800 ns, is
particularly useful for battery-operated systems where
battery life is a primary concern. In this mode, the core of
the device is turned off and the device consumes minimal
power with low standby current. In addition, all input
buffers are turned off, and all outputs and bidirectional
buffers are tristated. Since the core of the device is
turned off, the states of the registers are lost. The device
must be re-initialized when exiting Low Power Mode. I/
Os can be driven during LP mode, and clock pins should
be driven HIGH or LOW and should not float to avoid
drawing current. To exit LP mode, the LP pin must be
pulled LOW for over 200 µs to allow for charge pumps to
power up, and device initialization will begin.

Power Dissipation
The general power consumption of MX devices is made
up of static and dynamic power and can be expressed
with the following equation:
General Power Equation
P = [ICCstandby + ICCactive] * VCCI + IOL* VOL* N
+ IOH * (VCCI – VOH) * M
where:
ICCstandby is the current flowing when no inputs or
outputs are changing.
ICCactive is the current flowing due to CMOS
switching.
IOL, IOH are TTL sink/source currents.
VOL, VOH are TTL level output voltages.
N equals the number of outputs driving TTL loads to
VOL.
M equals the number of outputs driving TTL loads to
VOH.
Accurate values for N and M are difficult to determine
because they depend on the family type, on design
details, and on the system I/O. The power can be divided
into two components: static and active.
Static Power Component
The static power due to standby current is typically a
small component of the overall power consumption.
Standby power is calculated for commercial, worst-case
conditions. The static power dissipation by TTL loads
depends on the number of outputs driving, and on the
DC load current. For instance, a 32-bit bus sinking 4mA at
0.33V will generate 42mW with all outputs driving LOW,
and 140mW with all outputs driving HIGH. The actual
dissipation will average somewhere in between, as I/Os
switch states with time.
Active Power Component
Power dissipation in CMOS devices is usually dominated
by the dynamic power dissipation. Dynamic power
consumption is frequency-dependent and is a function of
the logic and the external I/O. Active power dissipation
results from charging internal chip capacitances of the
interconnect, unprogrammed antifuses, module inputs,
and module outputs, plus external capacitances due to
PC board traces and load device inputs. An additional
component of the active power dissipation is the totem
pole current in the CMOS transistor pairs. The net effect
can be associated with an equivalent capacitance that
can be combined with frequency and voltage to
represent active power dissipation.
The power dissipated by a CMOS circuit can be expressed
by the equation:
Power (µW) = CEQ * VCCA2 * F(1)
where:
CEQ =Equivalent capacitance expressed in picofarads (pF)
VCCA =Power supply in volts (V)
F =Switching frequency in megahertz (MHz)
Equivalent Capacitance
Equivalent capacitance is calculated by measuring
ICCactive at a specified frequency and voltage for each
circuit component of interest. Measurements have been
made over a range of frequencies at a fixed value of VCC.
Equivalent capacitance is frequency-independent, so the
results can be used over a wide range of operating
conditions. Equivalent capacitance values are shown
below.
CEQ Values for Actel MX FPGAs
Modules (CEQM)3.5
Input Buffers (CEQI)6.9
Output Buffers (CEQO)18.2
Routed Array Clock Buffer Loads (CEQCR)1.4
To calculate the active power dissipated from the
complete design, the switching frequency of each part of
the logic must be known. The equation below shows a
piece-wise linear summation over all components.

Test Circuitry and Silicon Explorer II Probe
MX devices contain probing circuitry that provides built-
in access to every node in a design, via the use of Silicon
Explorer II. Silicon Explorer II is an integrated hardware
and software solution that, in conjunction with the
Designer software, allow users to examine any of the
internal nets of the device while it is operating in a
prototyping or a production system. The user can probe
into an MX device without changing the placement and
routing of the design and without using any additional
resources. Silicon Explorer II's noninvasive method does
not alter timing or loading effects, thus shortening the
debug cycle and providing a true representation of the
device under actual functional situations.
Silicon Explorer II samples data at 100 MHz
(asynchronous) or 66 MHz (synchronous). Silicon Explorer
II attaches to a PC's standard COM port, turning the PC
into a fully functional 18-channel logic analyzer. Silicon
Explorer II allows designers to complete the design
verification process at their desks and reduces
verification time from several hours per cycle to a few
seconds.
Silicon Explorer II is used to control the MODE, DCLK, SDI
and SDO pins in MX devices to select the desired nets for
debugging. The user simply assigns the selected internal
nets in the Silicon Explorer II software to the PRA/PRB
output pins for observation. Probing functionality is
activated when the MODE pin is held HIGH.
Figure 1-12 illustrates the interconnection between
Silicon Explorer II and 40MX devices, while Figure 1-13
on page 1-10 illustrates the interconnection between
Silicon Explorer II and 42MX devices
To allow for probing capabilities, the security fuses must
not be programmed. (Refer to <zBlue>“User Security”
section on page 6 for the security fuses of 40MX and
42MX devices). Table 2 on page 1-10 summarizes the
possible device configurations for probing.
PRA and PRB pins are dual-purpose pins. When the
"Reserve Probe Pin" is checked in the
Designer software, PRA and PRB pins are reserved as
dedicated outputs for probing. If PRA and PRB pins are
required as user I/Os to achieve successful layout and
"Reserve Probe Pin" is checked, the layout tool will
override the option and place user I/Os on PRA and PRB
pins.

Design Consideration
It is recommended to use a series 70Ω termination
resistor on every probe connector (SDI, SDO, MODE,
DCLK, PRA and PRB). The 70Ω series termination is used
to prevent data transmission corruption during probing
and reading back the checksum.
IEEE Standard 1149.1 Boundary Scan Test
(BST) Circuitry
42MX24 and 42MX36 devices are compatible with IEEE
Standard 1149.1 (informally known as Joint Testing
Action Group Standard or JTAG), which defines a set of
hardware architecture and mechanisms for cost-effective
board-level testing. The basic MX boundary-scan logic
circuit is composed of the TAP (test access port), TAP
controller, test data registers and instruction register
(Figure 1-14 on page 1-11). This circuit supports all
mandatory IEEE 1149.1 instructions (EXTEST, SAMPLE/
PRELOAD and BYPASS) and some optional instructions.
Table 3 on page 1-11 describes the ports that control
JTAG testing, while Table 4 on page 1-11 describes the
test instructions supported by these MX devices.
Each test section is accessed through the TAP, which has
four associated pins: TCK (test clock input), TDI and TDO
(test data input and output), and TMS (test mode
selector).
The TAP controller is a four-bit state machine. The '1's
and '0's represent the values that must be present at TMS
at a rising edge of TCK for the given state transition to
occur. IR and DR indicate that the instruction register or
the data register is operating in that state.
The TAP controller receives two control inputs (TMS and
TCK) and generates control and clock signals for the rest
of the test logic architecture. On power-up, the TAP
controller enters the Test-Logic-Reset state. To guarantee
a reset of the controller from any of the possible states,
TMS must remain high for five TCK cycles.
42MX24 and 42MX36 devices support three types of test
data registers: bypass, device identification, and
boundary scan. The bypass register is selected when no
other register needs to be accessed in a device. This
speeds up test data transfer to other devices in a test
data path. The 32-bit device identification register is a
shift register with four fields (lowest significant byte
(LSB), ID number, part number and version). The
boundary-scan register observes and controls the state of
each I/O pin.

Notes:
1. Avoid using SDI, SDO, DCLK, PRA and PRB pins as input or bidirectional ports. Since these pins are active during probing, input
signals will not pass through these pins and may cause contention.
2. If no user signal is assigned to these pins, they will behave as unused I/Os in this mode. See the <zBlue>“Pin Descriptions” section
on page 77 for information on unused I/O pins.

Each I/O cell has three boundary-scan register cells, each
with a serial-in, serial-out, parallel-in, and parallel-out
pin. The serial pins are used to serially connect all the
boundary-scan register cells in a device into a boundary-
scan register chain, which starts at the TDI pin and ends
at the TDO pin. The parallel ports are connected to the
internal core logic tile and the input, output and control
ports of an I/O buffer to capture and load data into the
register to control or observe the logic state of each I/O.

JTAG Mode Activation
The JTAG test logic circuit is activated in the Designer
software by selecting Tools -> Device Selection. This
brings up the Device Selection dialog box as shown in
Figure 1-15. The JTAG test logic circuit can be enabled by
clicking the "Reserve JTAG Pins" check box. Table 5
explains the pins' behavior in either mode.
TRST Pin and TAP Controller Reset
An active reset (TRST) pin is not supported; however, MX
devices contain power-on circuitry that resets the
boundary scan circuitry upon power-up. Also, the TMS
pin is equipped with an internal pull-up resistor. This
allows the TAP controller to remain in or return to the
Test-Logic-Reset state when there is no input or when a
logical 1 is on the TMS pin. To reset the controller, TMS
must be HIGH for at least five TCK cycles.
Boundary Scan Description Language
(BSDL) File
Conforming to the IEEE Standard 1149.1 requires that
the operation of the various JTAG components be
documented. The BSDL file provides the standard format
to describe the JTAG components that can be used by
automatic test equipment software. The file includes the
instructions that are supported, instruction bit pattern,
and the boundary-scan chain order. For an in-depth
discussion on BSDL files, please refer to Actel BSDL Files
Format Description application note.
Actel BSDL files are grouped into two categories -
generic and device-specific. The generic files assign all
user I/Os as inouts. Device-specific files assign user I/Os as
inputs, outputs or inouts.
Generic files for MX devices are available on Actel's website
at http://www.actel.com/techdocs/models/bsdl.html.

Junction Temperature (TJ)
The temperature variable in the Designer software refers
to the junction temperature, not the ambient
temperature. This is an important distinction because the
heat generated from dynamic power consumption is
usually hotter than the ambient temperature. EQ 1-1,
shown below, can be used to calculate junction
temperature.
EQ 1-1
Junction Temperature = ΔT + Ta(1)
Where:
Ta = Ambient Temperature
ΔT = Temperature gradient between junction (silicon)
and ambient
ΔT = θja * P(2)
P = Power
θja = Junction to ambient of package. θja numbers are
located in the Package Thermal Characteristics table
below.
Package Thermal Characteristics
The device junction-to-case thermal characteristic is θjc,
and the junction-to-ambient air characteristic is θja. The
thermal characteristics for θja are shown with two
different air flow rates.
The maximum junction temperature is 150°C.
Maximum power dissipation for commercial- and
industrial-grade devices is a function of θja.
A sample calculation of the absolute maximum power
dissipation allowed for a TQFP 176-pin package at
commercial temperature and still air is as follow:
The maximum power dissipation for military-grade devices is a function of θjc. A sample calculation of the absolute
maximum power dissipation allowed for CQFP 208-pin package at military temperature and still air is as follows:

Predictable Performance: Tight Delay Distributions
Propagation delay between logic modules depends on
the resistive and capacitive loading of the routing tracks,
the interconnect elements, and the module inputs being
driven. Propagation delay increases as the length of
routing tracks, the number of interconnect elements, or
the number of inputs increases.
From a design perspective, the propagation delay can be
statistically correlated or modeled by the fanout
(number of loads) driven by a module. Higher fanout
usually requires some paths to have longer routing
tracks.
The MX FPGAs deliver a tight fanout delay distribution,
which is achieved in two ways: by decreasing the delay of
the interconnect elements and by decreasing the number
of interconnect elements per path.
Actel’s patented antifuse offers a very low resistive/
capacitive interconnect. The antifuses, fabricated in
0.45 µm lithography, offer nominal levels of 100Ω
resistance and 7.0fF capacitance per antifuse.
MX fanout distribution is also tight due to the low
number of antifuses required for each interconnect path.
The proprietary architecture limits the number of
antifuses per path to a maximum of four, with
90 percent of interconnects using only two antifuses.
Timing Characteristics
Device timing characteristics fall into three categories:
family-dependent, device-dependent, and design-
dependent. The input and output buffer characteristics
are common to all MX devices. Internal routing delays
are device-dependent; actual delays are not determined
until after place-and-route of the user's design is
complete. Delay values may then be determined by using
the Designer software utility or by performing
simulation with post-layout delays.
Critical Nets and Typical Nets
Propagation delays are expressed only for typical nets,
which are used for initial design performance evaluation.
Critical net delays can then be applied to the most timing
critical paths. Critical nets are determined by net
property assignment in Actel's Designer software prior to
placement and routing. Up to 6% of the nets in a design
may be designated as critical.
Long Tracks
Some nets in the design use long tracks, which are
special routing resources that span multiple rows,
columns, or modules. Long tracks employ three and
sometimes four antifuse connections, which increase
capacitance and resistance, resulting in longer net delays
for macros connected to long tracks. Typically, up to
6 percent of nets in a fully utilized device require long
tracks. Long tracks add approximately a 3 ns to a 6 ns
delay, which is represented statistically in higher fanout
(FO=8) routing delays in the data sheet specifications
section, shown in Table 28 on page 1-36.
Timing Derating
MX devices are manufactured with a CMOS process.
Therefore, device performance varies according to
temperature, voltage, and process changes. Minimum
timing parameters reflect maximum operating voltage,
minimum operating temperature and best-case
processing. Maximum timing parameters reflect
minimum operating voltage, maximum operating
temperature and worst-case processing.

Notes:
1. For dual-module macros, use tPD1 + tRD1 + tPDn, tCO + tRD1 + tPDn, or tPD1 + tRD1 + tSUD, whichever is appropriate.
2. Routing delays are for typical designs across worst-case operating conditions. These parameters should be used for estimating

3. Data applies to macros based on the S-module. Timing parameters for sequential macros constructed from C-modules can be
obtained from the Timer utility.
4. Set-up and hold timing parameters for the input buffer latch are defined with respect to the PAD and the D input. External setup/
hold timing parameters must account for delay from an external PAD signal to the G inputs. Delay from an external PAD signal to
the G input subtracts (adds) to the internal setup (hold) time.

Notes:
1. For dual-module macros, use tPD1 + tRD1 + tPDn, tCO + tRD1 + tPDn, or tPD1 + tRD1 + tSUD, whichever is appropriate.
2. Routing delays are for typical designs across worst-case operating conditions. These parameters should be used for estimating
device performance. Post-route timing analysis or simulation is required to determine actual performance.
3. Data applies to macros based on the S-module. Timing parameters for sequential macros constructed from C-modules can be
obtained from the Timer utility.
4. Set-up and hold timing parameters for the input buffer latch are defined with respect to the PAD and the D input. External setup/
hold timing parameters must account for delay from an external PAD signal to the G inputs. Delay from an external PAD signal to
the G input subtracts (adds) to the internal setup (hold) time.

Notes:
1. For dual-module macros, use tPD1 + tRD1 + tPDn, tCO + tRD1 + tPDn, or tPD1 + tRD1 + tSUD, point and position whichever is appropriate.
2. Routing delays are for typical designs across worst-case operating conditions. These parameters should be used for estimating
device performance. Post-route timing analysis or simulation is required to determine actual performance.
3. Data applies to macros based on the S-module. Timing parameters for sequential macros constructed from C-modules can be
obtained from the Timer utility.
4. Set-up and hold timing parameters for the input buffer latch are defined with respect to the PAD and the D input. External setup/
hold timing parameters must account for delay from an external PAD signal to the G inputs. Delay from an external PAD signal to
the G input subtracts (adds) to the internal setup (hold) time.
5. Delays based on 35 pF loading.

Notes:
1. For dual-module macros, use tPD1 + tRD1 + tPDn, tCO + tRD1 + tPDn, or tPD1 + tRD1 + tSUD, whichever is appropriate.
2. Routing delays are for typical designs across worst-case operating conditions. These parameters should be used for estimating
device performance. Post-route timing analysis or simulation is required to determine actual performance.
3. Data applies to macros based on the S-module. Timing parameters for sequential macros constructed from C-modules can be
obtained from the Timer utility.
4. Set-up and hold timing parameters for the Input Buffer Latch are defined with respect to the PAD and the D input. External setup/
hold timing parameters must account for delay from an external PAD signal to the G inputs. Delay from an external PAD signal to
the G input subtracts (adds) to the internal setup (hold) time.

Pin Descriptions
CLK/A/B, I/O Global Clock
Clock inputs for clock distribution networks. CLK is for
40MX while CLKA and CLKB are for 42MX devices. The
clock input is buffered prior to clocking the logic
modules. This pin can also be used as an I/O.
DCLK, I/O Diagnostic Clock
Clock input for diagnostic probe and device
programming. DCLK is active when the MODE pin is
HIGH. This pin functions as an I/O when the MODE pin is
LOW.
GND Ground
Input LOW supply voltage.
I/O Input/Output
Input, output, tristate or bi-directional buffer. Input and
output levels are compatible with standard TTL and
CMOS specifications. Unused I/Os pins are configured by
the Designer software as shown in Table 40.
In all cases, it is recommended to tie all unused MX I/O
pins to LOW on the board. This applies to all dual-
purpose pins when configured as I/Os as well.
LP Low Power Mode
Controls the low power mode of all 42MX devices. The
device is placed in the low power mode by connecting
the LP pin to logic HIGH. In low power mode, all I/Os are
tristated, all input buffers are turned OFF, and the core
of the device is turned OFF. To exit the low power mode,
the LP pin must be set LOW. The device enters the low
power mode 800ns after the LP pin is driven to a logic
HIGH. It will resume normal operation in 200µs after the
LP pin is driven to a logic LOW.
MODE Mode
Controls the use of multifunction pins (DCLK, PRA, PRB,
SDI, TDO). The MODE pin is held HIGH to provide
verification capability. The MODE pin should be
terminated to GND through a 10kΩ resistor so that the
MODE pin can be pulled HIGH when required.
NC No Connection
This pin is not connected to circuitry within the device.
These pins can be driven to any voltage or can be left
floating with no effect on the operation of the device.
PRA, I/O
PRB, I/O Probe A/B
The Probe pin is used to output data from any user-
defined design node within the device. Each diagnostic
pin can be used in conjunction with the other probe pin
to allow real-time diagnostic output of any signal path
within the device. The Probe pin can be used as a user-
defined I/O when verification has been completed. The
pin's probe capabilities can be permanently disabled to
protect programmed design confidentiality. The Probe
pin is accessible when the MODE pin is HIGH. This pin
functions as an I/O when the MODE pin is LOW.
QCLKA/B/C/D, I/O Quadrant Clock
Quadrant clock inputs for A42MX36 devices. When not
used as a register control signal, these pins can function
as user I/Os.
SDI, I/O Serial Data Input
Serial data input for diagnostic probe and device
programming. SDI is active when the MODE pin is HIGH.
This pin functions as an I/O when the MODE pin is LOW.
SDO, I/O Serial Data Output
Serial data output for diagnostic probe and device
programming. SDO is active when the MODE pin is HIGH.
This pin functions as an I/O when the MODE pin is LOW.
SDO is available for 42MX devices only.
When Silicon Explorer II is being used, SDO will act as an
output while the "checksum" command is run. It will
return to user I/O when "checksum" is complete.
TCK, I/O Test Clock
Clock signal to shift the Boundary Scan Test (BST) data
into the device. This pin functions as an I/O when
"Reserve JTAG" is not checked in the Designer Software.
BST pins are only available in A42MX24 and A42MX36
devices.
TDI, I/O Test Data In
Serial data input for BST instructions and data. Data is
shifted in on the rising edge of TCK. This pin functions as
an I/O when "Reserve JTAG" is not checked in the
Designer Software. BST pins are only available in
A42MX24 and A42MX36 devices.
TDO, I/O Test Data Out
Serial data output for BST instructions and test data. This
pin functions as an I/O when "Reserve JTAG" is not
checked in the Designer Software. BST pins are only
available in A42MX24 and A42MX36 devices.

1-78 v6.1
TMS, I/O Test Mode Select
The TMS pin controls the use of the IEEE 1149.1
Boundary Scan pins (TCK, TDI, TDO). In flexible mode
when the TMS pin is set LOW, the TCK, TDI and TDO pins
are boundary scan pins. Once the boundary scan pins are
in test mode, they will remain in that mode until the
internal boundary scan state machine reaches the "logic
reset" state. At this point, the boundary scan pins will be
released and will function as regular I/O pins. The "logic
reset" state is reached 5 TCK cycles after the TMS pin is
set HIGH. In dedicated test mode, TMS functions as
specified in the IEEE 1149.1 specifications. IEEE JTAG
specification recommends a 10kΩ pull-up resistor on the
pin. BST pins are only available in A42MX24 and
A42MX36 devices.
VCC Supply Voltage
Input supply voltage for 40MX devices
VCCA Supply Voltage
Supply voltage for array in 42MX devices
VCCI Supply Voltage
Supply voltage for I/Os in 42MX devices
WD, I/O Wide Decode Output
When a wide decode module is used in a 42MX device
this pin can be used as a dedicated output from the wide
decode module. This direct connection eliminates
additional interconnect delays associated with regular
logic modules. To implement the direct I/O connection,
connect an output buffer of any type to the output of
the wide decode macro and place this output on one of
the reserved WD pins.

Datasheet Categories
In order to provide the latest information to designers, some datasheets are published before data has been fully
characterized. Datasheets are designated as "Product Brief," "Advanced," "Production," and "Datasheet
Supplement." The definitions of these categories are as follows:
Product Brief
The product brief is a summarized version of a datasheet (advanced or production) containing general product
information. This brief gives an overview of specific device and family information.
Advanced
This datasheet version contains initial estimated information based on simulation, other products, devices, or speed
grades. This information can be used as estimates, but not for production.
Unmarked (production)
This datasheet version contains information that is considered to be final.
Datasheet Supplement
The datasheet supplement gives specific device information for a derivative family that differs from the general family
datasheet. The supplement is to be used in conjunction with the datasheet to obtain more detailed information and
for specifications that do not differ between the two families.
