Automotive CAN transceiver with 2 Mbps support and wide temperature range
Receiver hysteresis is specified at 120 mV, giving the bus interface clean noise rejection on long or electrically noisy cable runs.
Package and footprint — standard 8-SOIC, surface-mount
No special thermal pad or via pattern is required — standard SOIC-8 land pattern works.
Single driver/receiver pair — half-duplex CAN bus interface
Half-duplex operation means the bus alternates between transmit and receive — the dominant state on the bus is driven by the TXD input, and the RXD output reflects the bus state. The 120 mV receiver hysteresis ensures the digital output doesn't chatter on a marginal bus signal.
