CAN transceiver for 5V industrial buses
This removes the sourcing risk that plagues older CAN transceiver variants and allows the part to be specified into new BOMs without a near-term requalification burden.
2 Mbps bus speed and the bus margin trade-off
Rated for a 2 Mbps data rate, this transceiver handles the standard CAN 2.0 bit rates up to 1 Mbps with margin, and supports the higher-speed CAN FD data phase where the controller can push 2 Mbps on the bus. The half-duplex architecture is standard for CAN — the driver and receiver share the bus pins, so the protocol handles bus arbitration without collision.
8-SOIC footprint and layout considerations
Housed in the 8-SOIC (3.90 mm width) package, the SN65HVD267D fits the common SOIC-8 land pattern used by most CAN transceivers in this class.
