Texas Instruments
1/1 Transceiver Full LIN 8-SON (3x3)
Active

Overview

The TLIN2021DRBRQ1 is an AEC-Q100 qualified LIN physical layer transceiver designed for automotive and industrial networks. It supports data rates up to 100kbps and is compatible with LIN 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.2A, and ISO 17987-4 standards. The device features integrated protection against faults up to 60V and a wide operating supply range from 4.5V to 45V.

Why Choose This Part

This transceiver offers exceptional robustness with +/-60V bus fault protection and 42V load dump support, ensuring reliability in harsh electrical environments. Its ultra-low sleep current of 12uA and integrated 45k-ohm pull-up resistor reduce both power consumption and external component count.

Applications

Automotive Body Electronics
Used in door modules, window lifters, and seat controllers where low-speed, cost-effective communication is required.
Infotainment Systems
Connects user interface buttons and control panels to the head unit via the LIN protocol.
Industrial Automation
Ideal for sensor clusters and actuator control in 24V industrial systems requiring high fault tolerance.
System Power Management
Utilizes the INH pin to control local voltage regulators, enabling system-level power savings during sleep modes.
