TJA1021TK in NXP TJA CAN Transceivers Family
The TJA1021TK is a high-performance Local Interconnect Network (LIN) transceiver produced by NXP Semiconductors. It serves as the physical interface between a LIN master or slave protocol controller and the physical bus in automotive and industrial networks. As a specialized sub-family within the NXP transceiver lineup, it is fully compliant with LIN 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.2A, and SAE J2602 standards, providing robust communication for body electronics and convenience systems while maintaining high electromagnetic compatibility and low power consumption.
Variants in This Sub-Family
Variants within the TJA1021TK sub-family are primarily distinguished by their specific LIN physical layer timings and protocol revisions. The most common differentiator is the suffix code, such as /20, which denotes the maximum data rate of 20 kBd. Packaging options like HVSON8 provide enhanced thermal performance and smaller footprints compared to standard SO8 versions, while 'C' designations often indicate specific silicon revisions for improved EMC performance.
