Product details

The program memory is EPROM — written once, typically at the factory, and not electrically erasable in the field.

EPROM memory — no field updates possible

The EPROM program memory means firmware is locked at the time of programming. There is no in-system reprogramming or field update capability. For designs that require firmware changes after deployment, a Flash-based MCU would be needed instead. This part suits applications where the code is finalized before the board is assembled and sealed.

Minimal on-chip peripherals — plan for external support

The only confirmed on-chip peripheral is a power-on reset (POR). There are no timers, PWM channels, ADC, or watchdog timer listed. For timing, pulse-width modulation, analog measurement, or system supervision, external components (timer ICs, ADC, watchdog supervisor) will be required. The 32 I/O lines are available for general-purpose digital interfacing.

Frequently asked questions

When sourcing 5962-9169701MUA, what's the closest functional second-source — 5962-9169702MUA?

The 5962-9169702MUA is a direct functional alternative: same 80C51 core, 32 I/O, EPROM memory, and -55 to 125°C temperature range, but runs at 16 MHz instead of 12 MHz. It is pin-compatible and can drop into the same socket without rewiring.

Will 5962-9169701MUA drop into a panel that was specified around 5962-9169702MUA without rewiring?

Yes, the two parts share the same 80C51 core, 32 I/O count, EPROM memory type, and military temperature range. The only difference is the clock speed: 12 MHz for the 9169701MUA versus 16 MHz for the 9169702MUA. No rewiring is needed.
