Overview

The MCP2562T-H/MF is a CAN transceiver from Microchip that provides the physical-layer interface between a microcontroller CAN controller and a CAN bus. It converts logic-level TX and RX signals into the differential bus signals used on CAN networks. This device is intended for 5 V CAN systems and comes in a compact surface-mount package.

Why Choose This Part

This part is a straightforward way to add a CAN physical layer to a design that already has a CAN controller in the MCU or processor. The 5 V supply requirement makes it a common fit for classic CAN designs, and the small 8-DFN package helps save board space. The extended temperature range and CAN-specific signaling make it suitable for noisy industrial and automotive environments.

Applications

Automotive body electronics
Used in modules that need robust in-vehicle communication over a CAN network.
Industrial controllers
Connects PLCs, motor controllers, and distributed I/O nodes to CAN-based networks.
Node-to-node embedded networking
Adds a physical CAN interface to microcontroller-based systems.
Instrumentation and test fixtures
Useful in CAN-enabled diagnostic or production test equipment.
Robotics and motion systems
Supports reliable communication between controllers, drives, and sensor nodes.

Getting Started

Use MCP2562T-H/MF with a microcontroller that includes a CAN controller or with an external CAN controller such as an MCP2515. Follow the Microchip datasheet reference schematic for decoupling, bus wiring, and termination, and make sure the bus is properly terminated at the ends of the CAN trunk. For bring-up, pair it with a CAN-capable MCU board and a CAN toolchain or firmware stack supported by your MCU vendor.
