TJA1021TK/20/C,118
Overview
The TJA1021TK/20/C,118 is a specialized Local Interconnect Network (LIN) transceiver designed to interface between a LIN protocol controller and the physical bus. It is fully compliant with LIN 2.x and SAE J2602 standards, supporting communication speeds up to 20 kBd. This device is engineered for harsh automotive environments with high electromagnetic immunity and very low emissions.
Why Choose This Part
This transceiver offers exceptional energy efficiency with a sleep mode current of only 7 uA and a standby mode of 450 uA. It features integrated protection against battery short circuits, thermal overloads, and high ESD transients up to +/-6 kV. The leadless HVSON8 package is optimized for space-constrained designs and supports Automated Optical Inspection (AOI).
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
To evaluate this part, use a microcontroller with a standard UART peripheral connected to the TXD and RXD pins. Ensure the VBAT supply is within the 5.5V to 27V range and add the necessary pull-up resistors for LIN responder configurations if the internal termination is insufficient for your bus load. Consult the NXP application notes for layout recommendations to minimize electromagnetic emissions.
