Worst case would be to arrive at A42 and depart at the C gates. This would require a 20 to 30 minutes walk plus security screening and passport control. Still all doable in 60 minutes, so as others said 110 minutes should be fine.
Actually I was under the impression that all USA flights depart from 3rd level A. There are some remote stands for which the bus deposits you in 1st level B (within schengen zone), so in this case you would take the transit tunnel to A (about 10 minutes).
