Optimize power consumption with targeted wakeup of CAN nodes

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:

  • Programmable wake-up patterns for selective, targeted activation of individual CAN nodes
  • 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

Commander responder network architecture

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
