Product details

CAN bus physical-layer interface in a through-hole package

The Microchip MCP2562-E/P is a half-duplex CAN transceiver that interfaces a CAN protocol controller to the physical two-wire bus.

Through-hole PDIP — legacy footprint for retrofit or low-volume builds

The 8-pin PDIP (0.300" width) is a through-hole package that fits standard 0.1" pitch prototyping boards and existing PCB layouts designed for DIP-8 CAN transceivers. This makes the MCP2562-E/P a direct drop-in for repairs, retrofits, or small-batch production where wave soldering or hand assembly is used.

Microchip lists the MCP2562-E/P as an active product with ROHS3 compliance.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between MCP2562-E/P and MCP2562FD-E/P?

The MCP2562-E/P is a standard CAN transceiver, while the MCP2562FD-E/P supports CAN FD (flexible data rate) for higher throughput. Both are half-duplex and pin-compatible in the same 8-PDIP footprint, but the FD variant requires a CAN FD-capable controller to benefit from the faster data rates.
