Overview

The TCAN1042DRQ1 is an automotive-qualified (AEC-Q100 Grade 1) CAN transceiver designed to interface a CAN protocol controller with the physical bus. It supports both classic CAN and CAN FD data rates up to 5 Mbps, featuring high-voltage bus fault protection and a dedicated standby mode for low-power operation.

Why Choose This Part

This transceiver offers industry-leading bus fault protection up to +/-58V and high ESD tolerance up to +/-15 kV (IEC). It provides a wide common-mode input range of +/-30V and supports flexible I/O levels for both 3.3V and 5V microcontrollers, ensuring broad compatibility in complex systems.

Applications

Automotive Body Control
Used in gateway modules and body electronics where high EMC performance and robust ESD protection are required.
Industrial Automation
Provides reliable communication in harsh electrical environments with its +/-58V bus fault protection and +/-30V common mode range.
Functional Safety Systems
Ideal for safety-critical hardware due to its functional safety-capable rating and integrated protection features like thermal shutdown.
