The MCP2561FD-E/MF from Microchip Technology is a high-speed CAN Flexible Data-rate (CAN FD) transceiver that serves as an interface between a CAN (Controller Area Network) protocol controller and the physical two-wire CAN bus. Designed for high-speed automotive networking, it is capable of data rates up to 8 Mbps for CAN FD networks, allowing for increased bandwidth and data throughput.
Key Features:
- Compatibility: Fully compatible with the ISO 11898-2 and ISO 11898-5 standards for CAN FD.
- High-Speed Operation: Supports CAN FD for data rates up to 8 Mbps and classic CAN for data rates up to 1 Mbps.
- Robust Design: Features protection against damage due to high-voltage transients, thermal shutdown, and current limiting.
- Low-Power Mode: An extremely low standby current (5 µA, typical) helps to reduce power consumption when the network is idle.
- Extended Temperature Range: Operates across an industrial temperature range from -40°C to +125°C, suitable for harsh environments.
Applications:
With its robust and reliable design, the MCP2561FD-E/MF is ideal for automotive and industrial applications that require high data integrity and network reliability, including:
- Automotive networks
- Industrial automation and control systems
- Building automation
- Marine electronics
Package Information:
The device is offered in an 8-pin DFN package (3x3 mm), denoted by the 'MF' suffix in the part number, providing a compact footprint for space-constrained applications.
Manufacturer Support:
Microchip Technology provides comprehensive technical support for the MCP2561FD-E/MF, including datasheets, application notes, and design guides to assist developers in integrating the transceiver into their designs.
