DD IEC/TS 62564-1:2009 Aerospace qualified electronic component (AQEC). Microcircuits
This Technical Specification defines the minimum requirements for integrated circuits and semiconductors which are to be designated an “Aerospace Qualified Electronic Component (AQEC)”. It applies to integrated circuits and semiconductors exhibiting the following attributes:
will allow a standard COTS component to be designated AQEC by the manufacturer;
fabricated, assembled, and tested in accordance with the component manufacturer’s
requirements for standard data book components;
shall include the manufacturer’s standards, operating procedures, and technical
specifications. This information shall be available when requested;
but utilizing the same processes, are also considered AQEC compliant;
are found in Annex B of this standard.
Parts qualified to military specifications (except those identified as being for “logistic support” purposes only) are considered AQEC; the remainder of this standard only addresses non-military specification parts.
Parts qualified to AEC-Q100-Revision G, grade 0 through to grade 3 are considered AQEC. For those applications where a 0 °C to +70 °C temperature range is appropriate, grade 4 is also considered to be AQEC. The user shall document that the grade category used is compatible with the application in accordance with their IEC/TS 62239 ECMP.
