CEC1736-S0-I/2ZW-PROTO

Application Specific Microcontrollers Overview

The CEC1736-S0-I/2ZW-PROTO is a TrustFLEX proto device belonging to the Microchip CEC173x Trusted Extension Board series. It functions as a Platform Trust Root Controller designed for external root of trust (eROT) implementations. The component integrates security features such as secure boot, secure updates, crisis recovery, and ownership transfer. It is intended for evaluation on the EV42J24A development kit, which provides an 84-pin socket interface. This prototype unit allows developers to verify NIST and OCP recommended security protocols within data center, telecom, and industrial IoT environments.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Feature Summary

• TrustFLEX configuration supporting secure boot, secure update, and crisis recovery
• Compatible with the EV42J24A evaluation kit via 84-pin socket
• Supports SPI monitoring and ownership transfer capabilities
• Designed for integration into Platform Trust Root Controller architectures

Application Specific Microcontrollers Applications

• Data center platform security
• Telecom and 5G infrastructure
• Industrial IoT edge devices

Application Specific Microcontrollers Part Context

This part number represents a specific prototype variant (TrustFLEX) of the CEC1736 controller. It is distributed as part of the EV42J24A evaluation kit package alongside other variants like CEC1734 and TrustCUSTOM versions. It serves as a hardware asset for rapid prototyping using the Trust Platform Design Suite (TPDS) tools rather than a standalone mass-production component.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Replacement Considerations

As a prototype engineering sample included in an evaluation kit, this specific suffix (-PROTO) is not available for general procurement or direct replacement. Functional equivalents require selecting standard production CEC1736 variants (e.g., CEC1736-TFLX) from official distribution channels.
