Device Functional Modes

The TCAN843-Q1 has six operating modes: normal, standby, silent, go-to-sleep, sleep, and off mode. Operating mode selection is controlled using the nSTB pin and EN pin in conjunction with supply conditions, temperature conditions, and wake events.

TCAN843-Q1 TCAN843-Q1 State Machine
  1. The enable pin can be in a logical high or low state while in sleep mode but since the pin has an internal pull-down, the lowest possible power consumption occurs when the pin is left either floating or pulled low externally.
  2. First set EN = low at least 0.5μs before setting nSTB = high to produce a transition directly from Sleep mode to Silent mode without first passing through Normal mode (and thus inadvertently clearing fault flags).

Go-to-sleep: Transitional mode for EN = H, nSTB = L until tGOTOSLEEP timer has expired. The low-power bus monitor becomes/remains enabled in this state.
The INH pin transitions to high impedance once the tGOTOSLEEP timer has expired and the device transitions to Sleep mode.
Mode change from Go-to-Sleep mode to Sleep mode once tGOTOSLEEP timer has expired.
Passive mode is entered from Normal mode or Silent mode when a UVCC event occurs for t > tUV_det. The device transitions from Passive mode to Sleep mode once the tUV timer has expired.
