Microchip Technology ATA6622C-PGPW
The Microchip Technology ATA6622C-PGPW is a high-performance, stand-alone local interconnect network (LIN) transceiver designed to handle the communication requirements in modern automotive and industrial applications. This robust component conforms to the LIN 2.0, 2.1, and SAE J2602 standards, ensuring compatibility and reliable operation in standardized communication environments.
With its wide operating voltage range of 5.5V to 27V and reduced power consumption, the ATA6622C-PGPW is an excellent choice for managing the LIN bus physical layer in applications where power efficiency and reliability are critical. Its built-in voltage regulator with two different regulated voltages (3.3V and 5V) provides flexibility in supplying external components, making system integration more straightforward.
Key features of the ATA6622C-PGPW include:
- Integrated slope control to minimize electromagnetic emissions
- Thermal protection with an auto-restart function for enhanced reliability
- Current limiting feature to protect against short circuits
- Bus pin electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection up to ±6kV, ensuring robustness in harsh environments
- An under-voltage shutdown to prevent operation under insufficient power supply conditions
The device comes in a small PG-TSSOP14 package, which is ideal for space-constrained applications. Its low standby current makes it suitable for use in systems that require a permanent connection to the battery without draining it, such as automotive comfort functions, sensor interfaces, and actuator controls.
Microchip's ATA6622C-PGPW transceiver is a reliable solution for developers looking to implement a LIN interface with minimal external components and robust protection features. Its combination of high integration, small form factor, and adherence to industry standards makes it a versatile choice for a wide range of applications in the automotive and industrial sectors.
