CAN transceiver for automotive and industrial bus nodes
Package and mounting — wettable flank for AOI
Housed in a 14-VDFN exposed-pad package (also designated 14-VSON 4.5x3 mm), the device supports surface-mount assembly with wettable flanks. The wettable flank feature enables automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder joints, a requirement for automotive production lines where hidden solder fillets under standard QFN packages are a known reliability gap.
The base product number TCAN1043 covers a family of CAN transceivers; this specific variant is the wettable-flank, automotive-grade option in the 14-VSON package.
