• MX FPGA architecture with A42MX36 core
• 208-pin Ball Grid Array package configuration

Applications

• Aerospace and defense systems
• High-reliability embedded processing
• Radiation-tolerant electronic designs

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix corresponds to the required military grade and temperature range specifications. Confirm package integrity, specifically the BFCQFP with tie bar configuration, against design requirements. Ensure compliance with relevant military standards and quality certifications prior to integration into final assemblies.

Selection Notes

Select this component when military-grade qualification is mandatory for the application environment. The MX FPGA family offers a balance of logic density and power efficiency suitable for space-constrained designs. Evaluate pin count and I/O capabilities against system interface requirements to ensure adequate connectivity without excessive resource utilization.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Microchip MX FPGA family, which utilizes flash-based non-volatile technology. The 5962 prefix indicates a military-grade variant sourced through government or defense supply channels. It shares architectural similarities with commercial MX devices but undergoes stricter screening and testing protocols to meet rigorous environmental and performance standards.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other military-grade MX FPGA variants within the same package family. Verify logical equivalence and pin compatibility before substitution. Commercial equivalents lack the necessary reliability qualifications for defense applications.
