This part of IEC 62686 defines the minimum requirements for general purpose \'off the shelf\' COTS (commercial off-the-shelf) integrated circuits and discrete semiconductors for ADHP (Aerospace, Defence and High Performance) applications.
This Technical Specification applies to all components that can be operated in ADHP applications within the manufacturers’ publicly available datasheet limits in conjunction with IEC/TS 62239-1. It may be used by other high performance and high reliability industries, at their discretion.
ADHP application requirements may not necessarily be fulfilled by this specification alone. ADHP OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) may need to consider redesigning their products or conducting further testing to verify suitability in ADHP applications using their IEC/TS 62239-1 ECMP procedures. Alternatively a component in accordance with IEC/TS 62564-1 may be more suitable.
