AN-B037 Chrontel Application Notes Commercial and Industrial Grade Products 1.0 INTRODUCTION This application note outlines the differences between the products of the commercial and industrial grade, and focuses on explaining the differences of Chrontel’s production classification and products management policy for the commercial and industrial grade products. 2.0 THE DIFFERENCE OF COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTS Generally, the products of electronic components and semiconductors are classified to commercial and industrial grade according to the ambient operation temperature and the tolerance of power supply. For the commercial grade products, the ambient operation temperature is from zero degree C to 70 degree C, and the tolerance of power supply is within 5%. And for the industrial grade products, the corresponding specifications should be from minus 40 degree C to 85 degree C and 10%. The differences are determined by the applications actually. In fact and generally, the commercial grade products are used in commercial electronic devices, in which the products’ application environment is stable and under room temperature, not likely to be subjected to industrial temperature or power supply variations. The industrial grade products are used in devices or systems including industrial measurement and control, automotive, network and other high reliability systems, in which the application environment is harsher and of more variations. So, the industrial grade products need more reliability, stability and performance than the commercial grade products. Besides the differences mentioned above, Chrontel’s in
