PRODUCTION DATA
The TCAN1576-Q1 is a CAN FD signal improvement capable (SIC) transceiver supporting data rates up to 8Mbps. Meeting the physical layer requirements of the ISO 11898-2:2024 Annex A for high-speed CAN specification or Signal Improvement (SIC) specification for up to 5Mbps. The devices support selective wake up on dedicated CAN-frames. The devices can also wakeup remotely using a CAN bus that is implementing the ISO 11898-2:2024 Annex A for the Wake Up Pattern (WUP). The TCAN1576-Q1 supports 1.8V, 3.3V and 5V processors using VIO pin. The processor interface is through the SPI, RXD and TXD terminals. The devices have a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) that connects to a local microprocessor for configuration. SPI supports clock rates up to 4MHz. To provide flexibility for system design, configure the serial data output (SDO) pin as an interrupt output pin when the chip select pin is high.
The TCAN1576-Q1 provides a CAN FD transceiver function. The function is a differential transmit capability to the bus and differential receive capability from the bus. The device includes many protection features which provides device and CAN network robustness.
The CAN bus has two logical states during operation: recessive and dominant (see Figure 7-1 and Figure 7-2).
Recessive bus state is when the bus is biased to a common mode of about 2.5V through the high-resistance internal input resistors of the receiver of each node on the bus across the termination resistors. Recessive is equivalent to logic high and is typically a differential voltage on the bus of almost 0V. Recessive state is also the idle state.
Dominant bus state is when the bus is driven differentially by one or more drivers. Current is induced to flow through the termination resistors and generate a differential voltage on the bus. Dominant is equivalent to logic low and is a differential voltage on the bus greater than the minimum threshold for a CAN dominant. A dominant state overwrites the recessive state.
During arbitration, multiple CAN nodes can transmit a dominant bit at the same time. In this case, the differential voltage of the bus is greater than the differential voltage of a single driver.
Transceivers have a third bus state where the bus terminals are weakly biased to ground through the high resistance internal resistors of the receiver. See Figure 7-1 and Figure 7-2.
The TCAN1576-Q1 provides many enhanced features that are listed in the Feature Description. The enhanced features, advanced bus fault detection, fail-safe, and watchdog, provide a processor interrupt, which is described in each specific subsections.
