MCHPATA6561-GBQW-N

Overview

The ATA6561-GBQW-N is a high-speed CAN transceiver that provides an interface between a Controller Area Network (CAN) protocol controller and the physical two-wire CAN bus. It supports data rates up to 5Mbps for CAN FD (Flexible Data-rate) and is designed for high-reliability environments with a wide operating temperature range from -40 to 150 degrees Celsius.

Why Choose This Part

This transceiver features ultra-low power consumption in standby mode (12uA) and includes integrated protection against short circuits, overtemperature, and automotive transients. It offers excellent ESD handling and is 5V tolerant with a wide supply voltage range from 4.5V to 5.5V.

Applications

Getting Started

To evaluate this part, use a CAN FD capable microcontroller like the Microchip PIC32MZ or SAMC21 series. Ensure proper termination with 120-ohm resistors at both ends of the bus and verify the VIO connection matches your microcontroller's logic level (2.8V to 5.5V).
