5962-8514803YA

Overview

The Altera 5962-8514803YA is a microprocessor unit (MPU) based on the M80286 core architecture. It operates at a clock speed of 10MHz and is housed in a 68-pin CFlatpack package. The device is specified for an industrial operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. This component integrates the functionality of the Intel 80286 processor within Altera's military-grade manufacturing framework, providing a robust solution for legacy computing applications requiring high reliability and extended thermal tolerance.

Feature Summary

• Implements the M80286 microprocessor core architecture for standard instruction set compatibility.
• Engineered for extreme environmental stability with a wide industrial temperature rating.
• Utilizes a 68-pin CFlatpack surface-mount package for compact integration.

Applications

• Military avionics systems requiring radiation-hardened or high-reliability processing
• Industrial control environments with extreme thermal conditions
• Legacy system maintenance and replacement for 80286-based architectures

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific revision level and lot traceability documentation upon receipt. Confirm that the 68-CFlatpack pinout matches the target board design exactly. Ensure storage conditions comply with moisture sensitivity levels for ceramic flatpack packages. Request full material declaration and compliance certificates from the supplier prior to final acceptance.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a certified M80286 implementation is required for harsh environments. It serves as a direct functional equivalent to military-specification 80286 processors. Consider the 68-pin footprint constraints during PCB layout. Evaluate thermal management strategies given the 125°C maximum junction temperature limit.

Part Context

Altera produces specialized versions of standard semiconductor components under its military and aerospace division. The 5962- prefix indicates a Department of Defense microelectronic part number format. This specific model represents Altera's offering of the classic 16-bit x86 processor, bridging legacy software ecosystems with modern reliability standards.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other military-grade 80286 variants such as the AMD Am286 or Intel 80C286 in compatible packages. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility before substitution. Ensure voltage levels and timing characteristics match the original system requirements.
