CAN transceivers

CAN XL transceivers, designed to ISO 11898-2:2024, enable higher bandwidth and larger payloads for demanding in-vehicle networks. By reducing fragmentation overhead and improving time synchronization, CAN XL delivers  deterministic communication while maintaining the robustness and fault confinement of the CAN protocol.

Our solutions offer:

• Data rates up to 20Mbps in FAST mode with payloads up to 2048 bytes allowing IP tunneling
• Reduced bus utilization and deterministic latency, ensuring high-priority messages are delivered reliably under high data loads
• Full backward compatibility with CAN FD and CAN SIC networks for scalable upgrades across mixed-network environments

CAN SIC transceivers enable higher data rates and improved signal reliability for complex in-vehicle network topologies. By eliminating ringing at the dominant-to-recessive edge, these devices ensure clean, reliable communication at speeds up to 8Mbps, without redesigning your network.

Our solutions offer:

• Drop-in compatibility with non-SIC 5V CAN transceivers for seamless upgrades to existing networks
• Full compliance with ISO 11898-2:2024 and backward compatibility with CAN FD, classical CAN, and CiA 601-4

CAN transceivers with partial networking conserve power by enabling targeted wakeup of individual nodes based on programmable wake-up patterns, keeping only active nodes powered while the rest remain in a low-power state.

Our solutions offer:

• Bus fault diagnostics and watchdog timers for enhanced system safety and reliability
• Flexible compatibility with standard CAN and CAN SIC transceivers for node-level power savings

CAN FD Light (ISO 11898-1:2024) enables CAN bus networks to operate with a commander-responder architecture, allowing designers to remove microcontrollers (MCUs) from edge nodes. In this approach, a single MCU in the commander manages communication and triggers actions on MCU-less responder nodes, which can coexist on the same bus as traditional CAN FD devices. By reducing the number of MCUs and the associated software, CAN FD Light lowers system complexity and cost.

Benefits:

• Reduction in MCUs needed in a system
• Lowers software requirements at the edge node
• Enables MCU-less responder nodes for simpler edge designs
• Compatible with CAN and CAN FD networks

Our 3.3V CAN transceivers enhance power efficiency in your designs while saving board space by eliminating the need for a separate 5V power supply. Featuring data speeds up to 5Mbps and reliable bus fault protection, these devices are also fully interoperable with 5V CAN transceivers, enabling flexibility and seamless integration with other CAN systems.

Our latest generation of automotive-grade 3.3V CAN transceivers are the first to be International Electrotechnical Commission 62228 automotive electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)-compliant, enabling 3.3V CAN to support  both automotive and industrial applications.

Our portfolio of 5V CAN transceivers help you meet the increased bandwidth, efficiency and safety needs of modern automotive and industrial networks. Our portfolio offers data rates as high as 5Mbps, high bus-fault protection devices, dual-channel devices, self-supplied devices, controller-capable devices, and devices that can wake entire systems through their inhibit pin.

Our 5V CAN transceivers are available in both standard 8- and 14-pin configurations and space-saving small outline transistor packages. This breadth of devices enables support for many design topologies with enhanced efficiency and reliability.
