5962-0151802QYC

The 5962-0151802QYC is a high-reliability field-programmable gate array (FPGA) manufactured by Microchip Technology, derived from the SX-A family with Actel/Microsemi heritage. This nonvolatile FPGA utilizes antifuse technology, providing live-at-power-up operation and inherent radiation tolerance. Typical gate capacity is approximately 48,000 gates with 174 user I/Os housed in a 208-lead ceramic quad flat pack (CQFP). The device supports single-chip system integration with fast, deterministic timing and low power consumption, attributes essential for demanding embedded environments.

Typical end uses include satellite on-board data processing, launch vehicle guidance and control, avionics systems, and military mission computers where operational integrity under radiation and extended temperature ranges is mandatory. The 5962- prefix denotes a Standard Microcircuit Drawing (SMD) part, signifying Qualified Manufacturers List (QML) Class Q certification for military and space applications. Procurement requires careful lifecycle planning; as a mature radiation-tolerant FPGA, this device may face obsolescence risks, and long-term availability should be verified through authorized distribution. Strict adherence to handling and storage per MIL-PRF-38535 ensures reliability in high-reliability programs.
