MC1246L

Overview

The MC1246L is an analog circuit component manufactured by Motorola, housed in a CDIP14 ceramic package. It operates within a temperature range of -55 °C to 125 °C and requires a nominal supply voltage of 5 V with a maximum supply current of 37 mA. The device features a glass-sealed ceramic body with through-hole terminals and is classified under the military temperature grade. It does not comply with RoHS standards and utilizes a tin/lead (Sn/Pb) terminal finish.

Applications

• Military-grade analog signal processing
• Harsh environment electronic systems
• High-reliability analog circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order matches the MC1246L part number exactly, as it is a legacy component from Motorola. Confirm compliance requirements regarding leaded terminations and non-RoHS status before integration. Ensure the procurement source provides valid documentation for the military temperature rating and ceramic packaging specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component only when military-grade temperature resilience (-55 °C to 125 °C) and high reliability are required. The ceramic DIP-14 package offers superior environmental sealing compared to plastic alternatives. Verify that the 5 V supply and 37 mA current draw align with system power constraints.

Part Context

This component belongs to the broader category of analog circuits produced by Motorola, now associated with NXP Semiconductors. It represents legacy technology designed for robust performance in demanding conditions. The CDIP14 package indicates a dual in-line ceramic construction suitable for applications requiring hermetic sealing or high thermal stability.
