Overview

The MCP2544FD-E/SN is a high-speed CAN FD transceiver designed for high data rate applications up to 8Mbps. It serves as the physical interface between a CAN protocol controller and the physical two-wire bus, providing differential transmit and receive capability. This device is optimized for low power consumption, featuring a typical standby current of only 4uA while maintaining robust protection against bus shorts and thermal overstress.

Why Choose This Part

This transceiver supports wide bus voltages from -58V to +58V and includes permanent dominant detection on both TXD and the bus to prevent network blockage. It offers low quiescent current with a 2.5mA recessive run current and integrated thermal shutdown protection, ensuring reliability in harsh thermal environments from -40degC to 125degC.

Applications

Automotive In-Vehicle Networks
Ideal for high-speed body electronics and powertrain nodes requiring CAN FD data rates up to 8Mbps.
Industrial Automation
Reliable communication for factory automation systems and motor control units using CANopen or DeviceNet protocols.
Agricultural Equipment
Used in heavy machinery and tractor control systems that utilize ISO 11783 (ISOBUS) standards.
