Microchip Technology has introduced a new family of High-Speed (HS) CAN transceivers, the MCP2561/2 to act as an interface between a CAN protocol controller and the physical two-wire CAN bus. The new family of transceivers meet CAN specification requirement "GIFT ICT Group Conformance Test Specification V1.0" as verified by C&S Group GmbH .Customers can have confidence in CAN conformance and high robustness increasing ease of development and system reliability.
Bryan J. Liddiard, Marketing VP of Microchip's Analog and Interface Products Division, said, The automotive and industrial CAN markets continue to demand higher performance, lower power consumption, and more flexibility all in a cost-effective solution. Microchip's new family of CAN transceivers meets global EMC requirements with up to 14kV ESD performance, offers an industry low standby current, and is available in small form-factor device options.
These transceivers provide two device options. The MCP2561 is a HS CAN transceiver in an 8-pin package and features a SPLIT pin. The MCP2562 is also an HS CAN transceiver available in an 8-pin package but features a Vio pin.
The transceivers have an industry low standby current consumption helping meet automotive Electronic Control Unit (ECU) low-power budget requirements. The MCP2561/2 CAN transceivers are well suited for a wide range of applications in the automotive market, including power train, body and convenience, diagnostics, safety and security and industrial market, including manufacturing, construction and agriculture, among others.
The MCP2561 and MCP2562 transceivers are available now in 8-lead PDIP, SOIC and 3x3 mm DFN (leadless) package types.
