5962-8867808RA

Overview

The 5962-8867808RA is a UV Erasable Programmable Logic Device (PLD) manufactured by Cypress Semiconductor Corp. It belongs to the PAL®C20 family and features 4 macrocells for logic implementation. The device utilizes CMOS technology and operates with a maximum propagation delay of 30ns. It is housed in a 20-pin Ceramic Dual In-line Package (CDIP). This component serves as a high-reliability programmable logic solution designed for specific embedded applications requiring fixed-function or low-complexity logic replacement.

Feature Summary

• UV erasable programmable logic architecture
• CMOS technology construction
• 20-pin ceramic dual in-line package

Applications

• Embedded system logic replacement
• Industrial control circuitry
• Military and aerospace logic functions

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'RA' against official Cypress documentation to confirm exact speed grade and temperature range specifications. Ensure that the UV erasable nature of the device aligns with the production lifecycle requirements, as these components are not electrically reprogrammable like modern CPLDs. Confirm package integrity and pinout compatibility before integration into existing PCB designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a ruggedized, ceramic-packaged PLD is required for environments where standard plastic packages may be unsuitable. The 4-macrocell capacity limits its use to simple combinatorial or registered logic functions. Consider the UV erase requirement for field modifications, which necessitates exposure to ultraviolet light rather than electrical signals for reprogramming.

Part Context

This part number falls under the Cypress Semiconductor PAL®C20 series of programmable logic devices. These devices were designed to replace fixed logic gates in complex digital systems. The 5962 prefix indicates a military-grade or high-reliability variant classification often associated with specific vendor-specific part numbers within the broader Cypress portfolio.

Replacement Considerations

No direct public substitute part numbers are confirmed in available documentation.
